The influence of media size upon the effective removal
of organic waste from a liquid substrate was studied by the
use of three experimental trickling filters under a set
of uniform operating conditions. The range of experiments
involved hydraulic loadings of increasing magnitude and
of constant organic strength.
The trickling...
Three deep experimental filters were used to evaluate the influence
of the physical factors of media size, depth of filter, and organic and hydraulic loading on contact time and the rate of removal
of organic material by the biological growth on the filters. A
further correlation was made between contact...
The traditional filter paper assay for saccharifying cellulase
originally described by M. Mandels et al (1976) has been modified to
make possible low activity determinations of Trichoderma
cellulases. The enzymatic activity appears to decline during a
prolonged incubation period if no precautions have been taken. By
means of adding bovine...
