https://www.selleckchem.com/products/bobcat339.html The low-cost and environmentally benign elemental red phosphorus (RP) is a new class of photocatalysts with tunable bandgaps (ca. 1.5-2.4 eV) and has a strong visible-light response. It has been considered as a promising metal-free photocatalyst for solving the energy crisis and environmental problems. Unfortunately, due to the low-charge carrier mobility, and serve charge trapping effects, its photocatalytic activity is still restricted in comparison with the traditional compound photocatalysts. Considerable efforts, such as morphology modification, cocatalysts addition, heterostructure construction, charge trapping mitigation, have been conducted to improve the photocatalytic activity of the RP photocatalysts. In this review, the physical and chemical properties and the synthetic strategies of the RP photocatalysts were summarized along with the application in environmental remediation accompanied by the photocatalytic reaction mechanism. Finally, an overview and outlook on the problems and future avenues in designing and constructing advanced RP photocatalysts were also proposed.This study deals with the effect of aeration control strategies on the nitrogen removal efficiency and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions in a partial nitritation-anammox reactor with granular sludge. More specifically, dissolved oxygen (DO) control, constant airflow and effluent ammonium (NH4+) control strategies were compared through a simulation study. Particular attention was paid to the effect of flocs, which are deliberately or unavoidable present besides granules in this type of reactor. When applying DO control, DO setpoints had to be adjusted to the amount of flocs present in the reactor to maintain high nitrogen removal and reduce N2O emissions, which is difficult to realize in practice because of variable floc fractions. Constant airflow rate control could maintain a good nitrogen removal efficiency independent of the floc fraction
