Bioleaching Process of Sewage Sludge and Anaerobically Digested Sludge via Indigenous Sulfur-Oxidizing Bacteria to Improve Dewaterability and Reduce Heavy Metal Content by Suyun Xu, Yuze Jiang, Ruixiang Zou, Xuefeng Zhu, Hongbo Liu

“…Four treatments were evaluated: inoculum + elemental sulfur (S/ADS + E), inoculum alone (S/ADS + B), elemental sulfur alone (S/ADS + S), and a control with no additives. After 7 days of bioleaching, SS and ADS exhibited comparable heavy metal removal rates on Ni (92–98%) and Pb (88–92%), which were significantly more mobilized than Cu (30–44%) and Cr (63–73%). …”

Reducing heat load density with asymmetric and inclined double-crystal monochromators: principles and requirements revisited by XianRong Huang, Lahsen Assoufid, Albert T. Macrander

“…At present, fabrication/mounting-induced strains pose low risk since they can be controlled to <0.5 µrad over large areas. The only uncertain challenge is the thermally induced strains, yet it is estimated that these strains are naturally lowered by the large footprint and may be further mitigated by optimized cryogenic cooling to the 1–2 µrad level. …”
