Wastewater treatment plant(WWTP) has been recognized as a high energy consuming plant. Usually many WWTPs has been operated in the excessive operation conditions in order to maintain stable wastewater treatment. The energy required at WWTPs consists of various subparts such as pumping, aeration, and office maintenance. For management of energy comes from process operation, it can be useful to operators to provide some information about energy variations according to the adjustment of operational variables. In this study, multiple regression analysis was used to establish an energy estimation model. The independent variables for estimation energy were selected among operational variables. The R2 value in the regression analysis appeared 0.68, and performance of the electric power prediction model had less than ±5% error.

Lymphangioma is a malformation of the lymphatic system, which can involve any part of the body. However, lymphangioma in the gastrointestinal tract is uncommon. Large intestine is the least commonly involved site. The authors encountered a case of lymphangioma mimicking neoplastic polyp located in the rectum of a 65-year-old woman on screening colonoscopy. The surface mucosa showed dark red. The vascular pattern was difficult to define on narrow-band imaging. This polyp was reckoned as a neoplastic polyp and endoscopic mucosal resection was performed. Histologic examination revealed lymphangioma accompanying pressure induced necrosis. This case indicates the possibility of misdiagnosis due to pressure necrosis of mucosa.
