Mass customization of medical devices and implants: state of the art and future directions

The medical field is one in which the need for customization can be clear cut, as providing tailored devices and implants for unique physiologies can provide for a better overall treatment than the use of 'off the shelf' devices and implants. Customization in the production of medical products can be roughly divided into consideration of medical devices, and of implantable parts or systems. The present paper outlines the current state of the art in both of these areas, presents details of projects that are ongoing at the University of Leeds and outlines future research directions.

Nutrient removal performance of an anaerobic–anoxic–aerobic process as a function of influent C/P ratio

The laboratory scale anaerobic–anoxic–aerobic (A²O) process fed with synthetic brewage wastewater was designed to investigate the effects of changing feed C/P ratio on the performance of biological nutrient removal (BNR) processes. In the experiment, the influent chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration was kept at approximately 300 mg L^?1 while the total phosphorus concentration was varied to obtain the desired C/P ratio. Results showed that when the C/P ratio was lower than 32, phosphorus removal efficiency increased as C/P ratio increased linearly, while when the C/P ratio was higher than 32, the P removal efficiency was maintained at 90–98%, and effluent P concentration was lower than 0.5 mg L^?1. However, regardless of the C/P ratio, excellent COD removal (90% or higher) and good total nitrogen removal (75–84%) were maintained throughout the experiments. It was also found that very good linear correlation was obtained between COD uptake per unit P released in the anaerobic zone and C/P ratio. In addition, the P content in the wasted activated sludge increased with the decrease in the C/P ratio. Based on the results, it was recommended that the wastewater C/P ratio and its effects be incorporated into BNR design and operational procedures, appropriate C/P ratios were used to achieve the effluent treatment goals.

中频反应溅射SiO2膜与直流溅射ITO膜的在线联镀

多数ITO透明导电玻璃生产线在实现SiO2膜与ITO膜在线联镀时，应用SiO2靶射频溅射沉积SiO2膜工艺和ITO靶直流溅射沉积ITO膜工艺，如果SiO2膜应用硅靶反应磁控溅射工艺，存在这种工艺是否可以与ITO靶直流溅射沉积ITO膜工艺在线联用以及如何实现联用的问题。作者对现有的生产线进行了改造设计、加工，做了大量实验、质谱分析和多项测试研究，成功地实现反应溅射SiO2膜与ITO膜在线联镀，做到SiO2镀膜室的工作状态的变化基本上不影响ITO镀膜室的工艺条件。
