Topic:
Emerging pollutants
The presence of ten pharmaceutical compounds (bupropion, venlafaxine, mirtazapine, sertraline, citalopram, caffeine, triclosan, carbamazepine, diazepam, clozapine) which belong to different treatment categories was studied in one hospital and three urban WWTPs in north and northwestern Greece.

Selection of bacterial strains to bioaugment granular sludge and improve the removal of recalcitrant pollutants
(Corresponding) Carlier J., Lara-Moreno A., Ngonyani A., Martins A., Villagomez A., Igbodo B., Cox C., Ismail F., Marín-Beltrán I., Palma T., Costa M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Several advantages are gained by the use of granular sludge in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP), such as higher biomass retention, faster settling properties, lower energy costs and smaller operational land space. However, relatively few studies have been carried out on the biodegradation of...Read more
