Electricity can be generated during the wastewater treatment by microbial fuel cell (MFC). Effect of the anode pretreatment method, anode modification and electronic media in anolyte on electricity generation of a single chamber microbial fuel cell (SCMFC) with an air cathode was investigated by performance measurement of the MFC during one cycle of generating electricity. Results show that the discharge time of MFCs with stainless steel anode pretreated by NH4Cl and HCl is longer than that with anode pretreated by the distilled water and NaOH; the performance of MFC with anode pretreated by NH4Cl is the best; comparison with stainless steel anode and adhere activated carbon, the current of MFC with the stainless steel anode adhere the carbon fiber is the maximum and its Coulombic efficiency is the highest; The electricity generation characteristics of the MFC with the anode adhered carbon fiber and pretreated by NH4Cl and the anolyte added the electronic media is the best. The action of the electronic medium and the NH4Cl on the MFC is synergism. It's of great significance that the research results improve the performance of MFC by anode pretreatment.

Bio-drying reduces the moisture content of sludge without other external energy consumption, this paper introduced the microbiological aspect of a bio-drying process ,and state briefly about the suitable scope of oxygen supply ,C/N ratio, pH of biomass and moisture content for a optimal heat generation.

Bio-drying is an important method to reduce the excess sludge which use the inner biomass of sludge itself to generate heat for a water discharging has a broad prospects in sludge treatment. However, our research in this field is still very limited. In order to better mastering and promoting sludge bio-drying technology, this paper summarized the advantages of bio-drying, initially described the microbial mechanism of spontaneous heat generation and the heat and mass transfer phenomena in a bio-drying process, then build a macro heat conservation formula based on material conservation.

Based on the energy saving reconstruction of an existing office building in Hangzhou, this paper analysis the building energy consumption through the DEST simulation at the present phase. Then summarize the deficiency and reconstruction of the building, and accordingly we propose a reconstruction scheme for the building which is based on the primary research about the optimization strategy of energy saving. This will provide a strong basis about the energy saving reconstruction direction and the reconstruction emphasis of the office building in hot summer and cold winter area.
