    摘要: A copper integrated electrode with a convertible oxidation state, a preparation method and an application method are provided. The preparation process is based on an electrochemically induced self-growth method. Copper foam is used as a precursor, soaked in a graphene oxide solution, dried, calcined at high temperature and annealed, and then treated with an alkali solution to obtain the copper integrated electrode with the convertible oxidation state. The working electrode prepared by the nano-catalytic material of the present invention has good denitrification performance in the environmental field, which can achieve nearly 100% nitrate removal rate, nearly 100% nitrogen selectivity and long-term stability. These properties are due to the prepared working electrode having an oxidizable copper (I, II/0, I), oxygen vacancy (O) and a one-dimensional nanowire structure. The structure can regulate the adsorption and reduction of intermediate products, resulting in nearly 100% nitrate removal rate and nearly 100% nitrogen selectivity.

    摘要: A solids separation apparatus (SSA) for removing solids concentrate from a continuous fluid stream. The solids separation apparatus includes a tower. The SSA includes a transducer operably engaged with a first end of the tower and configured to generate a standing sonic wave inside of the tower. The SSA also includes a reflector operably engaged with an opposing second of the tower and configured to reflect the standing sonic wave towards the transducer. The SSA also includes at least one set of ports defined in an interior wall of at least one solids removal stage of the tower. The at least one set of ports is positioned at anti-nodes of the standing sonic wave to recover solids concentrate from a fluid stream flowing through the tower. The transducer and the reflector of the SSA are linearly moveable relative to the tower to linearly move the standing sonic wave.
