Abstract Two classes of poly(amide-imide)s with mono- and bisazoaromatic chromophores in the side chain have been synthesized using one-step hightemperature polycondensation. The influence of the structures of the macromolecules on their properties was investigated. Preliminary results of the kinetics of holographic grating recording using 514.5 nm Ar+ laser light for chosen poly(amideimide) films are presented. The gratings were recorded using two linearly polarized beams with s-s or s-p configurations. For comparative purposes all experimental conditions (light intensity, two-beams intersection angle) were kept unchanged. It was found that time constants of grating build-up were significantly larger for polymers containing a chromophore with two azo groups when compared with the same polymers having a single azo group. On the other hand diffraction efficiencies were lower for polymers containing a chromophore with two azo groups than with a single azo group.

A combined anaerobic anoxic aerobic reactor for the treatment of the industrial wastewater that contains nitrogen and complex organic compounds as well as its design procedure is presented. The purpose of our experiments was to find a simple methodology that would provide combined reactor design. The reactor is based on the combination of anaerobic, anoxic and aerobic process in one unit only. It was found that the HRT even under 1 hour in the anaerobic zone is long enough for the efficient transformation of complex organic compounds into readily biodegradable COD which is then used in dentrification process. In the N-NO3 concentration range 1.5-50 mg/l the denitrification rate could be expressed as half-order reaction when the CODrb was in excess. N-NO3 removal efficiency is controlled by the recycle flow from the aerobic to the anoxic zone. Nitrification rate can be expressed as first, half or zero-order reaction with respect to effluent N-NH4 concentration. Nitrification rate depends on the dissolved oxygen concentration and hydrodynamic conditions in the reactor. Case study for design of a pilot plant of the combined reactor for treatment of pre-treated pharmaceutical wastewater is shown. Characteristics of pre-treated wastewater were: COD=200 mg/l, BOD5=20 mg/l, N-Kjeldahl=80 mg/l, N-NH4=70 mg/l, N-NOx<1 mg/l, P-PO4=5 mg/l. Legal requirements for treated wastewater were: COD=<100 mg/l, BOD5<5 mg/l, N-NH4=<1 mg/l, N-NOx=<10 mg/l.

The response of nematocytes in the anemone Stichodactyla haddoni to contact with complex organic compounds varies according to the 9ubstance concerned and in most cases according to the level of accompanying mechanical stimulation. Compounds with a proteinaceous moiety differ in their capacity to excite nematocytes, but usually tend to induce a stronger response than polysaccharides or lipids. Nematocyst discharge against foreign animals appears to be the result of a sophisticated cellular recognition process in which the nematocytes, and/or cells closely associated with them, respond to physical contact with a surface of appropriate chemical composition.

From measurements of the absorption and desorption kinetics of VOCs into polysiloxane materials evidence is found for two competing processes.
