Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor: A Correlation between Biofilm Thickness and Removal of Pharmaceuticals and Endocrinal Disruptor Compounds

(Corresponding) Sanchez-Huerta C., Fortunato L., Leiknes T., Hong P.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
Removal of thirteen pharmaceuticals and endocrinal disruptor compounds via membrane aerated biofilm reactor was tested. MABR system demonstrated good management of nitrogenous nutrients. An increase in biofilm thickness enhanced the removal of analgesics, hormones, and disinfectants.

Sustainable treatment of air pollutants by moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) coupled with algae photobioreactor (APBR)

Pahunang R., (Corresponding) Zarra T., Oliva G., Senatore V., Belgiorno V., Ballesteros F., (Corresponding) Naddeo V.
Topic: 
Environmental odour, monitoring and control
The presence of high concentrations of VOCs in the atmosphere can lead to negative consequences for humans and the environment. The treatment of these compounds is thus necessary before their release into the atmosphere. In the study, an advanced moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) coupled with an...Read more
