Methods are proposed to define UE behavior for performing synchronization signal block (SSB) based radio link monitoring (RLM) and channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) based RLM. In a first novel aspect, if CSI-RS based RLM-RS is not QCLed to any CORESET, then UE determines that CSI-RS RLM configuration is error and does not perform RLM accordingly. In a second novel aspect, SSB for RLM and RLM CSI-RS resources are configured with different numerologies. UE perform SSB based RLM and CSI-RS based RLM based on whether the SSB and CSI-RS resources are TDMed configured by the network. In a third novel aspect, when multiple SMTC configurations are configured to UE, UE determines an SMTC period and whether SMTC and RLM-RS are overlapped for the purpose of RLM evaluation period determination.

A method of exposing microorganisms to a condition wherein the condition facilitates or inhibits growth of a specific species of microorganisms or a specific consortium of microorganisms. The condition may also stimulate microorganisms to uptake a pollutant from a fluid and/or release the pollutant. Furthermore, the microorganisms may also be harvested and used as a foodstuff for human and animal consumption.

The present invention relates to a method and a device for preventing and controlling pollutants in basin water resources utilization. The method includes: providing a hydrolysis tank (1), a nano-aeration tank (2) and a vertical subsurface flow constructed wetland (3) connected in sequence, salvaging duckweed and algae in the basin, then crushing, acidizing and digesting them in the hydrolysis tank (1), importing the supernatant obtained in the hydrolysis tank (1) into the nano-aeration tank (2), then mixing the water from the nano-aeration tank (2) with basin water and importing them into the vertical subsurface flow constructed wetland (3), treating to obtain basin water meeting the irrigation requirements.

Apparatuses and methods for utilizing different algal growth techniques to filter aquarium water under varying conditions, including freshwater, brackish, and saltwater, and including amounts of nutrients (including ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, CO2) which vary from low to high levels. Also disclosed are embodiments to operate above water, submerged, or any combination thereof, in separate or synergistic configurations, as well as embodiments to utilize faster-growing algal species to out-compete and overgrow slower-growing species.

A scalable phytoremediation system that uses rock medium supporting a Salicaceae (poplar or willow) tree rhizosphere in a basin with controllable volume and water depth that results in tertiary treatment requirements for organic BOD, pathogens, ammonia-nitrogen, nitrate-nitrogen and phosphorous pollutants and PFAS. COC removal is achieved by pollutant sorption, plant uptake and increased microbial mineralization activity. Phyto basin achieves faster pollutant mineralization to achieve regulated water quality standards. The Basin reactor system uses photosynthesis and rhizosphere dynamics to create a predictable reactor into carbon-rich microbial biomass to remove waste water pollutants (COC). The Basin uses <10% of the energy required for alternative tertiary treatment system. The Basin COC treatment functions year-round including through the trees dormant season.

An alkaline anion resin is taken as a base, a potassium ferrate is used as an iron source, and a characteristics of ferrate ions easily adsorbed on a surface of the anion resin are utilized to prepare resin-based iron oxide-containing composite phosphate removal adsorbent by one-step in-situ hydrolysis precipitation, compared with the related art, a preparation process of the disclosure is relatively simpler, a time period is shorter, and a production cost is lower. It has a strong ability to eliminate interference from other anions in the waste effluents, and it has a strong adsorption capacity, fast adsorption speed and large adsorption capacity for the phosphate. Moreover, it has the advantages of strong regeneration ability and multiple repeated use times.

A system for reducing contaminants in body of water is shown and described. The system has a first land mass located within a body of water. A sediment trap, located on the floor of the body of water, is configured to collect sediment. Enclosed within the first land mass is a tussock mass area, surrounding a central area, and configured for collecting sediment and building a second land mass. The central area of the system is configured for removing contaminants from sediment. Sediment is moved from the sediment trap to the central area by a first ingress conduit and a pumping system. Filtered water migrates from the central area to outside the first land mass via an egress conduit; contaminated sediment is sequestered in the central area enclosed by the tussock mass area.

A horizontal flow water treatment method and wetland biofilter system with improved flow control via a tubular apparatus and further comprising a chamber with impermeable outer walls spaced away from permeable interior walls of a media filtration bed such that a catch basin is formed between the outer walls and the interior walls. The catch basin creates an open area around the perimeter of the interior walls for influent water to fill within the open area on all sides before penetrating the filtration media, providing a large surface area for influent water to interact with the media filtration bed. The influent water enters the catch basin in a horizontal flow path to provide for pre-settling of particulates before making contact with the filtration media. The biofilter design increases the available surface area of the media filtration bed by up to four times for a given volume of water, and thereby minimizes the loading or infiltration rate on the media filtration bed.
