A process for treating colored liquid comprises a step of contacting a colored liquid and functional water generated by electrolysis of a water solution of an electrolyte under light irradiation, to decolorize efficiently and stably to a low chromaticity.
摘要:
A method for decomposing halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbon compounds or aromatic compounds characterized by contacting the compound to be decomposed with functional water under light irradiation, wherein the functional water is characterized by a hydrogen ion concentration (pH) of 1-4, an oxidation-reduction potential of 800-1500 mV (working electrode: platinum, reference electrode: silver-silver chloride) and a chlorine concentration of 5-150 mg/l, and the irradiation is carried out with light of a wavelength of 300 nm or more, with an intensity of 10 mW/cm2 or less. This method is carried out at room temperature under the atmospheric pressure. An apparatus for the method is also provided.

摘要:
A surface plasmon resonance sensor apparatus includes a common substrate, a surface emitting laser, such as a VCSEL, arranged on the common substrate, a sensor array, such as CCD array, arranged on the common substrate, a light-transmitting medium provided above the common substrate, and a metal thin film formed on the light-transmitting medium to cause surface plasmon resonance due to light which is emitted from the surface emitting laser, transmitted through the light-transmitting medium and impinging on the metal thin film. The surface emitting laser, metal thin film and sensor array are positioned such that a change in an intensity of light reflected by the metal thin film caused by the surface plasmon resonance can be measured by the sensor array.
摘要:
An apparatus for soil remediation to remedy a soil contaminated with a pollutant less affecting the environment, which includes a soil borer having a rotatable drilling form or portion capable of agitating the soil, introducing into the soil at least one agent selected from the group consisting of a microorganism capable of degrading the pollutant, a nutrient for the microorganism and an inducer to make the microorganism express the pollutant-degrading activity, and measuring pollutant concentration in the soil.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for diffusing a treating agent into a medium, a method and apparatus for injecting a liquid into a medium, and a method of remedying soil. The method of diffusing a treating agent into a medium, comprises a step in which a solidified treating agent is scattered and diffused by the pressure of a gas resulting from a gas-generating agent.
摘要:
A bacterium strain JM1 (FERM BP-5352) capable of degrading organic compounds without inducers is disclosed. Further, methods for degrading organic compounds and remedying an environment using the bacterium strain are also disclosed. The microorganism is brought into contact with the environment under conditions which stimulates the organism to degrade the organic compounds and thus, remedying the environment of pollutants. A kit and method for selectively detecting the strain expressing oxygenase from a sample containing strain J1 FERM BP-5102 is also disclosed. The latter strain expresses oxygenase when induced, however, strain JM1 FERM BP-5352 does not require induction. In addition, a process for obtaining strain JM1 FERM BP-5352 is also disclosed.
摘要:
A process for microbial remediation of soil polluted with a pollutant by introducing into the polluted soil a decomposing microorganism, a nutrient and/or an inducer necessary for the expression of a decomposing activity in the microorganism, wherein a coefficient of permeability of the polluted soil is controlled to be small and uniform so that the introduced substance may be uniformly distributed over a soil area to be remedied. Also a process for treating soil which comprises a step of controlling the coefficient of permeability of the soil so that a peak at the substantially smallest coefficient of permeability may comprise the largest percentage in the distribution of coefficient of permeability.
摘要:
A neutron beam controlling apparatus includes a plurality of multilayered plate members, each having on one or both of its surfaces, one or more minute protruding portions. Each of the protruding portions is a long and narrow protrusion extending in an area-wise direction and having both an inclined surface that is inclined against the beam axis of neutron beam and serves as an incident plane or an outgoing plane for the neutron beam and a surface approximately normal to the plate member.
