A kind of P-25 TiO2 films coated nickel foam was synthesized by a facile dip-coating/calcination route, and used to fabricate a continuous-flow three-phase photocatalytic reactor. The morphology, crystal phase structure, surface composition and specific surface area of P-25 films coated nickel foam were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurements, respectively. The results indicated that the coated/ calcined P-25 films had the porous surface structure fabricated by nano-sized titanium dioxide consisted of two crystal phases and incorporated with a NiO interlayer. The increase of P-25 contents enhanced the specific surface area; however, 20 percent of initial P-25 sol would result in visible large cracks because of too high P-25 content and consequently cause the peeling of films. The photocatalytic activities of nickel foam with different coating amounts of P-25 for the degradation of quinoline aqueous solutions were investigated with a continuous-flow three-phase photocatalytic reactor based on the P-25 films coated nickel foam. The results suggested that nickel foam coated with 10 percent of P-25 sol had an optimal photocatalytic activity for the degradation of quinoline aqueous solutions. The continuous-flow three-phase photocatalytic reactor fabricated with P-25 films coated nickel foam with an optimal P-25 coating amount shows high photocatalytic activity and stability for the degradation of quinoline aqueous solutions and industrial wastewater. The treated industrial wastewater meets the international discharge standard.

A three-phase, liquid-fluidized-bed biofilm reactor was operated over wide ranges of liquid velocity, air velocity, medium concentration, and substrate surface loading. The biofilm characteristics (total colonization, polysaccharide content, density, and thickness) and the specific detachment coefficient (bs) were determined by a combination of experimental measurements and a hydrodynamic model. The results demonstrated that dense and thin biofilms were induced by the physical condition of high particle-to-particle contacts and high liquid turbulence. The biofilm's polysaccharide content was increased by increased air turbulence and a low substrate availability. The specific detachment coefficient, bs, was strongly correlated to the concentration of the medium (negatively) and the polysaccharide content (positively). Overall, the bs can be controlled significantly by the gas and liquid velocities; increasing either velocity tends to increase bs.
