The technology can be used wherever industry has a biological waste stream or wastewater with high organic carbon or COD (chemical
oxygen demand) of natural origin that can be broken down into biogas
by anaerobic bacteria.
The anaerobic wastewater biogas technologies — which extract methane to generate green electricity or to fuel boilers and other factory equipment — are particularly applicable to food, beverage and agribusiness companies, or any industry that has a biological waste stream or wastewater with high organic carbon or COD (chemical
oxygen demand) of natural origin that can be broken down into biogas
by anaerobic bacteria.
Led
by postdoctoral researcher Luis Huckstadt, the researchers found that the dives of pregnant seals became shorter, probably due to an increasing
demand for
oxygen for the fetus.
Soliman said the finding that atrial fibrillation was associated only with NSTEMI heart attacks suggests that factors contributing to partial blockage of the coronary arteries or increased
oxygen demand, such as sudden increase in heart rate, are more likely to explain the association between a-fib and heart attack than those factors linked to total blockage caused
by the migration of a blood clot to a coronary artery from the site of its formation.
The country also failed to reduce a measure of water pollution (called «chemical
oxygen demand»)
by 2.0 %.
«Significant impacts to the lake could result from incidental or accidental spills from 5,100 ships passing through every year; invasive species brought
by transoceanic ships, which could threaten the extinction of aquatic plants and fish, such as the cichlids that have been evolving since the lake's formation; and frequent dredging, impacting aquatic life through alterations in turbidity and hypoxia, triggered
by resuspension of nutrients and organic matter that exert a relatively high biochemical
oxygen demand.»
In most cases, hypoxia is caused
by either a dysfunction of the retinal vasculature, as in diabetic retinopathy and retinal artery and vein occlusions, or it is due to a mismatch between nutrient supply and
demand, as in the case of a retinal detachment, where the retina is separated too far from the choroid to receive sufficient
oxygen.
It works
by detecting the changes in blood oxygenation and flow that occur in response to neural activity — when a brain area is more active it consumes more
oxygen and to meet this increased
demand blood flow increases to the active area.
Since the ATP energy used
by your muscles is generated with the aid of
oxygen, it follows that an increase in exercise intensity will result in an increase in muscular
oxygen demands.

Is the effect caused
by high biological
oxygen demand due to warmer waters?
