Challenges in biological treatment plants: the approach of zero sludge waste

THEOFANIDIS S., Samiotis G., Bellos D., Pekridis G., Tsioptsias C., (Corresponding) Amanatidou E.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

The current trend in operation of biological Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) is the minimization of sludge wastage due to its labor and cost intensive management process. Minimization of sludge can be achieved by increasing the solids retention time (SRT) in a WWTP, up to an almost complete...Read more

Pretreatment of antibiotics-contaminated waste biological sludge by ozonation

Boševski I., (Corresponding) Kalčikova G., Derco J., Žgajnar Gotvajn A.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Ozonation was studied as a pretreatment method for a waste biological sludge, contaminated with large amounts of globally used antibiotics; tiamulin, levofloxacin and amoxicillin. At the concentrations of over 100 mg L-1, these antibiotics were found to inhibit biogas production (up to 50%), which...Read more
