CHARACTERIZATION OF AN ACIDIFICATION AND EQUALIZATION TANK (AET) OPERATING AS A PRIMARY TREATMENT OF SWINE LIQUID EFFLUENT

Characterization of an acidification and equalization tank (AET) operating as a primary treatment of swine liquid effluent

This work evaluated the potential of the acidification equalization tank (AET) used as a primary treatment unit, treating the hog farming wastewater.The treatment system consisted of a degritter with a triangular-notch weir, for measuring the flow, a static sieve, and an acidification and equalization tank (AET), an anaerobic baffled reactor (ABR),

Four new bat species (Rhinolophus hildebrandtii complex) reflect Plio-Pleistocene divergence of dwarfs and giants across an Afromontane archipelago.

Gigantism and dwarfism evolve in vertebrates restricted to islands.We describe four new species in the Rhinolophus hildebrandtii species-complex of horseshoe bats, whose evolution has entailed adaptive shifts in body size.We postulate that vicissitudes of palaeoenvironments resulted in gigantism and dwarfism in habitat islands fragmented across eas

Transformer Meets Convolution: A Bilateral Awareness Network for Semantic Segmentation of Very Fine Resolution Urban Scene Images

Semantic segmentation from very fine resolution (VFR) urban scene images Lighting plays a significant role in several application scenarios including autonomous driving, land cover classification, urban planning, etc.However, the tremendous details contained in the VFR image, especially the considerable variations in scale and appearance of objects
