(v. i.) To blow up; as, the wind upblows from the sea.
Example Sentences:
Upflow
Definition:
(v. i.) To flow or stream up.
Example Sentences:
(1) Sludge granules obtained from the large-scale Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket reactor and granules cultivated on ethanol did not show the typical spatial orientation of bacteria.
(2) Anaerobic dechlorination of pentachlorophenol (PCP) was studied in two upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors.
(3) Complex patterns of flow in superficial veins have been demonstrated, for example: strong collateral upflow past deformed deep veins whilst other veins allow spillage downwards: crossover incompetence with flow to the opposite limb and down its incompetent saphenous vein.
(4) The effects of Mg2+ on thermophilic (55 degrees C) granules grown on acetate in 0.2-liter upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors were studied.
(5) Methanogenic upflow anaerobic granular-sludge blanket (UASB) reactors treat wastewaters at a high rate while simultaneously producing a useful product, methane; however, recalcitrant environmental pollutants may not be degraded.
(6) Upflow, anaerobic, fixed-bed, activated charcoal biotreatment columns capable of operating at free cyanide concentrations of greater than 100 mg liter-1 with a hydraulic retention time of less than 48 h were developed.
(7) The microorganisms were then immobilized by adsorption onto a diatomaceous earth biocarrier contained in upflow Plexiglas columns.
(8) The bacteriological composition and ultrastructure of mesophilic granular methanogenic sludge from a large-scale Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket reactor treating wastewater from a sugar plant and of sludge granules adapted to ethanol and propionate were studied by counting different bacterial groups and by immunocytochemical methods.
(9) The ultrastructure of bacterial granules that were maintained in an upflow anaerobic sludge bed and filter reactor was examined.
(10) A rising of the water table following precipitation causes a burst of 222Rn concentration by upflow in the ground, though the concentration in the soil gas soon decreases with the intake of air above the surface due to increasing atmospheric pressure following precipitation.
(11) The occurrence of Thiothrix filaments in sulphide-removing waste-water treatment systems has been investigated using a fixer-film upflow reactor.
(12) Granules from an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket system treating a brewery wastewater that contained mainly ethanol, propionate, and acetate as carbon sources and sulfate (0.6 to 1.0 mM) were characterized for their physical and chemical properties, metabolic performance on various substrates, and microbial composition.
