Calculations of chemical oxygen demand (COD) degradation in sewage by a microbial fuel cell (MFC) were used to estimate the total energy required for treatment of the sewage.

Partial aeration simultaneously removed organic matters and nitrogen compounds in a 226 L reactor equipped with 27 microbial fuel cells.

Abstract. In this paper, behavior scheme of autonomous mobile robots to achieve the objectives of them in environments are proposed, having function of identifying the current environment in which they are placed and making use of learning, memorizing and recalling behaviors of corresponding to each of plural different environments. Specifically, each robot has the function of identifying the environment using some behavioral statistical data for each environment, and if the robot has already experienced the environment, it behaves by making use of own experienced data stored in the database, otherwise it performs a new behavior learning and adds the learning results into the database.
