In the present article, the author shows that Faltings' annihilator theorem holds for any Noetherian ring $A$ if $A$ is universally catenary; all the formal fibers of all the localizations of $A$ are Cohen-Macaulay; and the Cohen-Macaulay locus of each finitely generated $A$-algebra is open.
The notion of Macaulayfication, which is analogous of the desingularization, was introduced by Faltings in 1978 and he construct a Macaulayfication of quasi-projective scheme whose non-Cohen-Macaulay locus is of dimension 0 or 1 by a characteristic free method. In this paper, we gave a Macaulayfication of a quasi-projective scheme whose non-Cohen-Macaulay locus is of dimension 2. Of course out method is independent of the characteristic.
