Treatment and desalination of domestic wastewater for water reuse in a four-chamber microbial desalination cell by Lu, Yaobin

“…Several strategies such as controlling catholyte pH, increasing influent COD concentration, adopting the batch mode, applying external voltage, and increasing the alkalinity of wastewater were investigated for improving the SMDC performance. Under a condition of 0.4 V external voltage, anolyte pH adjustment, and a batch mode, the SMDC decreased the wastewater salinity from 1.45 to below 0.75 mS cm−1, which met the salinity standard of wastewater for irrigation. …”

Effect of the length of silicon nano-dot/wire on band gap by Hassan, Walid M.I.

“…We will report on the role of the length of silicon nanowire (SNW) in determining the band gap of a structure. We find that the band gap decreases with SNW length for the same diameter and approaches the band gap for an ideal infinitely long SNW. …”
