Start-up of the nitrogen removal process in an anaerobic up-flow reactor inoculated with aeration tank sludge
Wijaya I., (Corresponding) Ribeiro H., Soedjono E., Slamet ., Teixeira C., Bordalo A.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) has been considered a promisingly alternative to traditional nitrification/denitrification to remove nitrogen in an autotrophic process, without using an external carbon source, requiring low energy consumption and sludge production. The start-up of the...Read more
Anaerobic MBR technology for treating municipal wastewater at ambient temperatures
(Corresponding) Plevri A., Mamais D., Noutsopoulos C.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
An innovative way to treat municipal wastewater and produce energy at the same time is anaerobic treatment. Anaerobic processes are traditionally used for high-strength wastewater or municipal sludge treatment and only recently have been applied for the treatment of low strength municipal...Read more
How does presence of microplastics impact biogas production?
Resnik N., (Corresponding) Žgajnar Gotvajn A., Griessler Bulc T.
Topic:
Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies
The aim of this study was to evaluate the inhibition on the biogas production caused by microplastics (MPs). Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are receptors of MP. After wastewater treating, more than 90% of MP could be retained in the sludge. Anaerobic digestion of the excess sludge can help...Read more
Anaerobic Digestion of Municipal Wastewater (MWW) in a Periodic Anaerobic Baffled Reactor (PABR)
Zarkaliou A., Kougias C., (Corresponding) Papadopoulou K., Lyberatos G.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The scope of this work is to study the treatment of municipal wastewater in a Periodic Anaerobic Baffled Reactor (PABR). PABR is an innovative, high-rate bioreactor, designed to operate under high organic loadings. Apart from the Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) an important operational parameter is...Read more

Planar Mixing Tool for Enhanced Performance of Covered Anaerobic Pond Systems
(Corresponding) Brück F., Velten H., Pingsmann M., Meyer D., Weigand H., Linnenberg C., Theilen U.
Topic:
New solutions for a better and sustainable agriculture
Pond systems are the simplest and most widespread technology for the treatment of high-strength wastewater containing biodegradable suspended solids. When covered, they offer significant advantages such as odour control, intensification of the decomposition process, and the potential to capture...Read more
APOC technology as an eco-innovative decentralized sanitation system for wastewater treatment and reuse facilities in the rural locality of Bent Saidane-NE Tunisia
(Corresponding) Chaabane S., Ghattassi A., Mensi K., M'hiri F., Plakas K.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
Decentralized wastewater treatment systems (DEWATS) in rural areas can be a smart alternative that helps communities to strengthen rural sanitation in improving clean water and sanitation management. To address these challenges, AquaCycle project, funded by the European Union under the ENI CBC MED...Read more

Development and demonstration of an eco-innovative system for sustainable treatment and reuse of municipal wastewater in small and medium size communities in the Mediterranean region
(Corresponding) Plakas K., Karabelas A., Takavakoglou V., Chatzis V., Oller-Alberola I., Polo-López I., Al-Naboulsi T., El Moll A., Kallali H., Mensi K., M'Hiri F., Simon Andreu P.
Topic:
Sustainable water management in the mediterranean – technological solutions, demonstration and deployment
Treated municipal wastewater is considered a valuable non-conventional water resource. However, a substantial number of wastewater treatment plants installed in the Mediterranean region have proven to be unsuccessful copies of systems operating in technolo-gically advanced countries. In addition to...Read more

Impact of Fatty Waste on Anaerobic Digestion of Sewage Sludge at a Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant - A Case Study
(Corresponding) Umiejewska K., Retman M., Lech P.
Topic:
Waste-to-energy
Anaerobic digestion is a common method for utilization of sewage sludge at large-scale wastewater treatment plants. This process generates biogas, which is a source of renewable energy. Intensification of biogas production can be achieved, for example, through co-digestion, with fatty waste...Read more

Development and Application of a novel anaerobic/aerobic/anoxic process in municipal wastewater treatment utilizing intracellular carbon sources
Gao X., (Corresponding) Peng Y.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) face a significant challenge in controlling treatment costs while meeting increasingly stringent wastewater discharge standards. To address this challenge, A novel anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic (AOA) process has been proposed. In this study, long-term...Read more
