The water quality model is based on WASP5 which quantifies processes governing internal nutrients cycling, dissolved oxygen balance, and phytoplankton growth. The model was used to simulate the spatial distribution and the temporal variation of water quality in Jiaozhou Bay for period of May 2005 to May 2006. The simulation result shows that under the influence of nutrients discharge from river the concentrations of nutrients and phytoplankton were higher in the northwest and northeast of the bay, and decreased from the inner bay to the outer. Obvious seasonal variation of phytoplankton biomass was found, which exhibited two peaks in March and July, respectively.","PeriodicalId":6430,"journal":{"name":"2009 3rd International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering","volume":"64 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76515257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effect of operating conditions, including pH, reaction time, cast- iron filings dosage and size range, on color removal rate was discussed. Results showed that under certain conditions, color removal rate of the effluent reached about 90%. It was also found that chemical oxygen demand (COD) and 5 day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) of the effluent decreased evidently after zero-valent iron treatment, and BOD5 / COD increased from 0.27 to 0.42, which indicated that biodegradability of the effluent was obviously enhanced. Based on the results, it is feasible that zero- valent iron can be used for pretreatment of CTMP effluent before biological treatment processes.","PeriodicalId":6430,"journal":{"name":"2009 3rd International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering","volume":"42 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87501852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many biological functions of methyl palmitate have been found. Recently we isolated the methyl palmitate from the green walnuts husks and found it has acaricidal activity that had not been reported before. Here, the acaricidal activity of methyl palmitate, industrial methyl palmitate and the mixtures of methyl palmitate and Silwet L-77 were studied respectively. The results showed that the LC 50 of methyl palmitate for female mites was 1.72 mg/ml and 7.73 mg/ml for eggs. The contact toxicity of methyl palmitate on female mites is better than on eggs. Methyl palmitate also has strong repellent effect on the female mites. Then the acaricidal activity of industrial methyl palmitate was studied, and the results showed that both of the mortality and adjusted mortality of Tetranychus cinnabarinus were more than 70% when the concentration of industrial methyl palmitate was 10 mg/ml and 8 mg/ml. In order to improve the acaricidal activity of industrial methyl palmitate, Silwet L-77, a kind of silicone surfactants, was used to mix with industrial methyl palmitate to increase the permeability of industrial methyl palmitate. The female mites were treated with nine kinds of mixture of industrial methyl palmitate and Silwet L-77. The results showed that the best mixture ratio of the industrial methyl palmitate and Silwet L-77 was 8 mg/mltimes200 ppm, 5 mg/mltimes400 ppm and 8 mg/mltimes400 ppm, and all the acaricidal activity of the three mixtures were more than 90%.
