Thermophilic biohydrogen production from sugarcane molasses under low pH: Metabolic and microbial aspects

By-products from sugarcane mills have a considerable energy potential, and therefore have been studied aiming to generate biogas emphasising biohydrogen (bioH₂). Sugarcane molasses, a byproduct from sugar production, are rich in carbohydrates, thus easily biodegraded by anaerobic microorganisms. This study evaluated the production of bioH₂ in unfavorable pH (3.80) using molasses as a feedstock in an anaerobic structured bed reactor (AnSTBR-A) under thermophilic conditions (55 °C). The AnSTBR-A operated with an organic loading rate (OLR) of 60 g L⁻¹ d⁻¹ was able to produce bioH₂ under long-term operation (392 days). The hydrogen yield (HY) was 1.18 mol H₂ mol total carbohydrates⁻¹. The results highlighted HY variation concomitant with metabolite concentrations. The main role to bioH₂ production in AnSTBR-A was acetate + lactate → butyric + bioH₂, with a predominance of the organism belonging to the Thermoanaerobacterium genus.

某污水处理厂设计规模为10万t/d,采用AAO+MBR工艺,设计出水水质满足《城镇污水处理厂污染物排放标准》(GB 18918-2002)一级A标准。由于运行时间较长,MBR运行系统存在产能下降、膜丝断丝脱落、污堵和清洗频次以及强度增加等问题,严重影响正常生产运行。针对MBR系统运行中存在的问题,文中提出具体改造建议,并总结运行经验,进一步优化MBR膜系统的运行维护管理,为其他污水厂MBR膜系统运行问题提供解决思路和维护管理经验。     

Environmental economic dispatch in multi-area power system employing improved differential evolution with fuzzy selection

In a deregulated multi-area electrical power system the objective is to determine the most economical generation dispatch strategy that could satisfy the area load demands, the tie-line limits and other operating constraints. Usually, economic dispatch (ED) deals only with the cost minimization, but minimization of emission content has also become an equally important concern due to the mandatory requirement of pollution reduction for environmental protection. Environmental economic dispatch (EED) is a complex multi-objective optimization (MOO) problem with conflicting goals. Normally a fuzzy ranking is employed to rank the large number of Pareto solutions obtained after solving a MOO problem. But in this paper the preference of the decision maker (DM) is used to guide the search and to select the population for the next generation. An improved differential evolution (DE) method is proposed where the selection operation is modified to reduce the complexity of multi-attribute decision making with the help of a fuzzy framework. Solutions are assigned a fuzzy rank on the basis of their level of satisfaction for different objectives before the population selection and then the fuzzy rank is used to select and pass on better solutions to the next generation. A well distributed Pareto-front is obtained which presents a large number of alternate trade-off solutions for the power system operator. A momentum operation is also included to prevent stagnation and to create Pareto diversity. Studies are carried out on three test cases and results obtained are found to be better than some previous literature.

Development of a novel algorithm for optimal capacitor placement in distribution systems

Optimal capacitor placement in distribution systems solved by the hybrid method of CODEQ (called HCODEQ method) is proposed in this work. The concepts of chaotic search, opposition-based learning, and quantum mechanics are used in the CODEQ method to overcome the drawback of parameters selection in the differential evolution (DE). However, a larger population size must be used in the CODEQ method. That is a drawback for all evolutionary algorithms (EAs). To overcome this drawback, acceleration operation and migrating operation are embedded into the CODEQ method, i.e. HCODEQ method. The use of these two operations can increase the convergence speed without decreasing the diversity among individuals. One benchmark function and various-scale capacitor placement systems are used to compare the performance of the proposed method, CODEQ method, DE, simulated annealing (SA), and ant system (AS). Numerical results show that the performance of the HCODEQ method is better than the other methods.
