Ultimate biochemical oxygen demand (BODu)
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) The total amount of oxygen required to oxidize any organic matter present in a water, i.e. after an extended period, such as 20 or 30 days.
Facultative
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) A group of microorganisms which prefer or preferentially use molecular oxygen when available, but are capable of suing other pathways for energy and synthesis if molecular oxygen is not available.
Virus
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) A submicroscopic genetic constituent which can alternate between two distinct phases. As a virus particle, or virion, it is DNA or RNA enveloped in an organic capsule. As an intracellular virus, it is viral DNA or RNA inserted into the host organisms DNA or RNA.
Anabolism
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) Biosynthesis, the production of new cellular materials from other organic or inorganic chemicals.
Substrate level phosphorylation
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) The synthesis of the energy storage compound adenosine triphosphate (ATP) from adenosine diphosphate (ADP) using organic substrates without molecular oxygen.
Consumers
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) Organisms which consume protoplasm produced from photosynthesis or consume organisms from higher levels which indirectly consume protoplasm from photosynthesis.
Chemotroph
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) Organisms which obtain energy from the metabolism of chemicals, either organic or inorganic.
Chemoautotrophic
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) Organisms which utilize inorganic carbon (carbon dioxide or carbonates) for synthesis and inorganic chemicals for energy. See autotrophic and photoautotrophic.
Catabolism
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) The production of energy by the degradation of organic compounds.
Fermentation
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) Energy production without the benefit of oxygen as a terminal electron acceptor, i.e. oxidation in which the net effect is one organic compound oxidizing another. See respiration.
Hydrocarbon
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) Any organic compound composed entirely of carbon and hydrogen. Two examples are methane gas and octane.
Bacteria
แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) One celled microorganisms which do not have a nuclear membrane.
