The invention is directed to methods, apparatuses, and systems for treatment of a liquid flow comprising addition of a chemical treatment at at least two locations along a side stream of a main flow of said liquid, in which the dosing by such additions is sufficient to treat the entire main flow upon return of the side stream to the main flow. Algorithms are utilized to control the additions at the locations of addition of chemical treatments. In a typical embodiment, one chemical addition is principally proportional to the flow rate of the liquid flow, and the other chemical addition is principally adjusted based on signals from a primary measuring device that measures a parameter in the flow after one or both chemical additions. The addition of chlorine dioxide as the chemical treatment, to disinfect wastewater, is discussed.

The invention is a fibrous structure for fluid streams that is a mixture of nano alumina fibers and second fibers arranged in a matrix to create asymmetrical pores and to which fine, ultrafine, or nanosize particles such as powdered activated carbon are attached without the use of binders. The fibrous structure containing powdered activated carbon intercepts contaminants from fluid streams. The invention is also a method of manufacturing and using the fibrous structure.

Fluid-handling methods and devices for ultrasonic manipulation of fluid-borne particles comprise a fluid-handling manifold and an ultrasonic particle manipulator defining an ultrasonic cavity within the manifold. Fluid-borne particles introduced into the manifold are manipulated by controlling ultrasonic standing waves at the ultrasonic cavity. Cavities having non-uniform configurations, asymmetric standing waves and / or multiple ultrasonic cavities within the manifold are operative to control the movement of the fluid-borne particles, optionally including collecting and holding such particles, transferring particles through an intersection from one channel to another, etc. Solid phase extraction (SPE) particles, biological particles and other fluid-borne particles can be manipulated within the fluid-handling manifold.

The invention relates to a method for preparing a graphite-phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4) material. The method includes the steps that a carbon nitride precursor and ammonium salt are evenly mixed, and then calcination is conducted so that the porous g-C3N4 material can be obtained. The ammonium salt is any one of ammonium base salts capable of generating ammonia gas through thermal decomposition or is the combination of at least two of the ammonium base salts. In the preparation process of the g-C3N4 material, the ammonium salt is added into the carbon nitride precursor to be mixed. In the high-temperature calcining process, the ammonium salt is subjected to pyrogenic decomposition to generate gas, a pore-forming effect on the g-C3N4 material is achieved, and the cellular porous g-C3N4 material is obtained. In the preparation process of the g-C3N4 material, template agents are not used, and thus the method is simple, efficient and environmentally friendly; the prepared g-C3N4 material is high in photocatalytic activity and can be used in the pollution control processes such as exhaust gas and wastewater treatment.
