The results indicated that the addition of Sr obviously refined the microstructure of ADC12 alloys. When 0.05 wt% Sr was added into the alloy, the eutectic Si phase was fully modified into fine fibrous structure; a-A1 and fl-A15FeSi phases were best refined; and the eutectic AlzCu phase was modified into block-like AlzCu phase that continuously distributed at the grain boundary. The ultimate tensile strength （UTS） （270.63 MPa） and elongation （3.19%） were increased by 51.2% and 73.4% respectively compared with unmodified alloys. After the two-stage solution treatment （500 ~C, 6 h＋520 ~C, 4 h）, for 0.05 wt% Sr modified ADC12 alloys, the Si phases transformed into fine particle structure and AlzCu phases were fully dissolved. The peak hardness value of the alloys processed by the two-stage solution treatment was increased by 8.3% and 6.8% respectively compared to solution treatment at 500 ~C and 520 ~C. After the aging treatment （175 ~C, 7 h）, the hardness and UTS were increased by 38.73% and 13.96% respectively when compared with the unmodified alloy.展开更多

Potential solutions to these problems were investigated by adding a synthetic zeolite obtained from coal fly ash to different steps of activated sludge treatment. The experimental results for ammonium removal fit well with the theoretical adsorption isotherms of the Freundlich model with a maximum adsorption capacity of 13.72 mg.g-＇. Utiliza- tion of this kind of zeolite to improve activated sludge sediment ability is studied for the first time in this work. It is found that the addition of the zeolite （1 g. L-1） to an activated sludge with settling problems significantly enhances its sediment ability and comoact ability. This is confirmed by the sludge volume index （SVI）, which was reduced from 163 ml.g-1 to 70 ml.g-r, the V60 value, which was reduced from 894 ml.L-1 to 427 ml.L-1, and the zeta poten- tial （0, which was reduced from -19.81 mV to -14.29 mV. The results indicate that the addition of this synthetic zeolite to activated sludge, as an additional waste management practice, has a positive impact on both ammonium removal and sludge settleability.展开更多
