For the large water circulation enables the uniform mixing of sewage, so the activated sludge has good dispersion, which greatly increases the specific surface area of activated sludge. The high dispersion of activated sludge in MBR is another reason to improve the effect of water treatment. This outdistances the larger group of bacteria formed by common biochemical method of water treatment technology; MBR has easy integration, easily realized automatic control and simple operate and manage; by abandoning the secondary clarifier, MBR areas decreases the area. After the effluent form MBR, it goes on with the NF process. NF is compact membrane, which is a kind of organic membrane. For MBR's COD is not up to standard, it needs further treatment. NF can further separate refractory organic matter and partial ammonia nitrogen, and further process desalination treatment. NF technology has good pass rate for monovalent ions, and higher retention rate of two valence ion. Therefore, the NF ion concentration of the solution is relatively low and easy to handle. To make the effluent meet the standard of reuse water, the RO process will further intercept chloride ions and concentration of dissolved solids in water. Summary comparison of 2 leachate treatment process plans is shown in Table 8.2-3.

Process Instruction (1) Pretreatment When leachate passes through the grille, impurities of large particles and suspended substances will be removed and sent to the garbage pit. There is a by-pass connected to the grille. If there are not many impurities or sewages, the sewages can be directly sent to the regulating pool by the by-pass to reduce the risk of the spillover of odor of the grille. The water pump pumps the leachate from the regulating pool. There is a pipe mixer in the pipe. The suspended substances can be partly removed by adding coagulant. Sludge collection bucket is set at the bottom of the primary sedimentation basin. The solids and the suspended substances that are easy to precipitate will subside to the sludge collection bucket. Then the sludges will be sent to the dewatering equipment by the sludge pump for dehydrating and incineration. The effluent from sedimentation basin will be sent to UASB anaerobic pool after the filtration through 3mm basket filter and 1mm pipeline filter. The function of the regulating pool is to equalize the quality and quantity in favor of the stable operation of the follow-up biochemical processing system. The project’s regulating pool is designed according to the quantity of leachate stored in 7 days. After the degradation of sludges through the anaerobic regulating pool, 15%~30% will be removed by the water inflow COD. When the solids and the suspended substances that is easy to precipitate, 5%~15% are removed after the treatment of primary sedimentation basin. (2) UASB anaerobic reactor The anaerobic reactor adopted by the project is UASB anaerobic reactor which was developed in the 1980s. At present, this technology has been applied successfully in sewage treatment in every industry with many advantages, such as high capacity of treatment, low investment and area with stable operation. The UASB reactor includes: water inflow and distribution system, pool body of the reactor and three-phase separator. The sewages are lifted through the pump into the bottom of the reactor, flowing upward with a certain flow rate. The methane of large amounts produced by anaerobic process can stir the sewages so that they can be mixed with sludges and organic matter can be absorbed and decomposed. The methane can be discharged through the gas-collecting chamber of the three-phase separator which is on the upper part of the anaerobic reactor. So the sewages containing suspended sludges will enter the settlement zone of three-phase separator. The sludges with good performance of precipitation return to the main body of the reactor and the sewages with a few light sludges are expelled from the top of the reactor. The anaerobic reactor features that it can granulate the sludges in the reactor and the sludges can have good performance of sedimentation and high activity of producing methane. In result, the concentration of sludges in the reactor is higher and the age of that longer. COD volume load is considerably increased and good contact between mud and water is reached. Because of the high COD load, the production of methane is high, which will lead to the expansion and fluidization of the sludges. The effect of mass transfer will be intensified so that the mud can have full access to the water. The effluents treated by the anaerobic reactor are sent to the MBR system for further treatment. The methane is drawn to the garbage pit through pipeline by induced draught fan. The designed removal rate of COD by UASB can achieve more that 70%. (3) MBR The combination of the leachate of MBR treatment and the reflux of nitrification pool (achieved by the reflux of UF concentrated solution) comes into denitrification reactor and mixes fully with denitrifying sludges with the help of under liquid agitator. Because of the nitrification of highly active aerobic microorganism, reflux of nitrification pool makes oxidation of ammonia nitrogen and organic nitrogen become nitrate and nitrite, which restores to nitrogen under the effect of denitrification sludge in denitrification reactor anaerobic environment, so that denitrification can be achieved. The effluents of the denitrification pool enter directly into nitrification pool. Activated sludge, wastewater and air are fully mixed and moves in circles in the reaction tank. The organic matter including carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus element in the sewages is effectively removed and oxidation of ammonia nitrogen and organic nitrogen is transormed into nitrate and nitrite through the effect of highly active aerobic microorganism. The jet aeration is adopted in the nitrification reactor pool. The air needed is self absorbed by jet aeration equipment. The mud water treated by the

  • Negative Transfer of Anhui Dialects to English Pronunciation— Case Study in Anhui Agricultural University
    2016 2nd International Conference on Education Science and Human Development (ESHD 2016) ISBN: 978-1-60595-405-9 Negative Transfer of Anhui Dialects to English Pronunciation— Case Study in Anhui Agricultural University Wei-Xuan SHI 1,a, Chun-Ming ZHANG 2,b 1,2 North China Electric Power University, Baoding, Hebei Province, China [email protected], [email protected] Keywords: Anhui dialects, English pronunciation, Negative transfer. Abstract. In this paper, Anhui Agricultural University is taken as an example to study how Anhui dialects influence the English pronunciation of students. The different pronunciation characteristics of Anhui dialects are collected and summarized in this paper. A phonetic test based on the international phonetics is comprehensively designed for the collection of students’ pronunciation. Through contrasts and analysis, the specific influences that Anhui dialects exert on students are discovered, which will help a lot in the improvement of student’s pronunciation. Relevant Studies about the Influence of Chinese on English Pronunciation Language variety is the basic unit studying language in sociolinguistics. The British linguist R.A. Hudson defines language variety as a set of linguistic items with similar to social distribution [1]. This set of linguistic items can be the whole phonetics, grammar and lexical system, and also the component or rule of certain word or grammar [2]. Dialect is the branch and variety of a language and can be divided into regional dialect and social dialect [3]. From 1930s to 1940s, scholars in China, such as Zhao Yuanren, had already started the comparison of Chinese and English phonetics, from then on, Chinese and English phonetics difference became an important field in contrastive study of Chinese and English.

Page 1/20 Abstract Thirteen Zhou Dynasty bronze vessels and two slags from Zongyang County along the north bank of the Yangtze River in Anhui were analyzed by LA-MC-ICP-MS and EDXRF. The results of the lead isotope analysis showed that there were two kinds of lead materials in the Zongyang bronzes. Class which could have originated from the Wannan region were mainly used in the Western Zhou and the following Spring and Autumn periods; while Class , possibly from the local mines in Zongyang County, were mainly present in the Warring States period. Such a shift in the ore material sources is also revealed by the analysis of the trace elements of the Zongyang bronzes. With reference to relevant historical documents, it can be inferred that the transformation of the bronze material sources could be related to the changes of the political situation during the Zhou Dynasty.

  • Mind in Dispute: the Section on Mind in Harivarman’S *Tattvasiddhi
    © Copyright 2015 Qian Lin Mind in Dispute: The Section on Mind in Harivarman’s *Tattvasiddhi Qian Lin A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2015 Reading Committee: Collett D. Cox, Chair Richard G. Salomon Timothy J. Lenz Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of Asian Languages and Literature University of Washington Abstract Mind in Dispute: The Section on Mind in Harivarman’s *Tattvasiddhi Qian Lin Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Collett D. Cox Department of Asian Languages and Literature This dissertation is an in-depth study of the dispute on the doctrines regarding the structure of mind as recorded in the fourth century CE Abhidharma work, the *Tattvasiddhi (成實論, TatSid hereafter) by Harivarman. Despite the specific differences among the various Buddhist Abhidharma analyses of mind, in general they can be divided into two major positions. Some propose that mind is composed of consciousness (citta or vijñāna) and various numbers of mental factors (caitasika or caitta), which are mental phenomena that are different from but associated (saṃprayukta) with consciousness. Others oppose the existence of caitasikas as entities separate from consciousness; instead they suggest that caitasikas are not different from citta by nature but are only citta in different modes. In chapters 60-67, the TatSid records arguments representing both sides of the dispute. The present study consists of an annotated English translation (chapter 5) of chapters 60-67 of the TatSid as well as detailed analyses of and comments on each of the arguments for or against the notions of “mental factor” (caitasika) (chapter 2) and “association” (saṃprayoga) (chapter 3).

  • Vertical Facility List
    Facility List The Walt Disney Company is committed to fostering safe, inclusive and respectful workplaces wherever Disney-branded products are manufactured. Numerous measures in support of this commitment are in place, including increased transparency. To that end, we have published this list of the roughly 7,600 facilities in over 70 countries that manufacture Disney-branded products sold, distributed or used in our own retail businesses such as The Disney Stores and Theme Parks, as well as those used in our internal operations. Our goal in releasing this information is to foster collaboration with industry peers, governments, non- governmental organizations and others interested in improving working conditions. Under our International Labor Standards (ILS) Program, facilities that manufacture products or components incorporating Disney intellectual properties must be declared to Disney and receive prior authorization to manufacture. The list below includes the names and addresses of facilities disclosed to us by vendors under the requirements of Disney’s ILS Program for our vertical business, which includes our own retail businesses and internal operations. The list does not include the facilities used only by licensees of The Walt Disney Company or its affiliates that source, manufacture and sell consumer products by and through independent entities. Disney’s vertical business comprises a wide range of product categories including apparel, toys, electronics, food, home goods, personal care, books and others. As a result, the number of facilities involved in the production of Disney-branded products may be larger than for companies that operate in only one or a limited number of product categories. In addition, because we require vendors to disclose any facility where Disney intellectual property is present as part of the manufacturing process, the list includes facilities that may extend beyond finished goods manufacturers or final assembly locations.
