Use of the microalgae Chlorella Sorokiniana for municipal wastewater treatment: batch experiments

Kotoula D., Iliopoulou A., Irakleous-Palaiologou E., Gatidou G., Aloupi M., Fountoulakis M., (Corresponding) Stasinakis A.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Batch experiments were conducted in order to investigate the use of microalgae Chlorella sorokiniana for the treatment of different types of municipal wastewater (raw sewage, anaerobically treated wastewater, aerobically treated wastewater) and investigate the role of light and addition of ammonium...Read more

Influence of microbial fuel cell integration on organic matter and nutrient removal in a constructed wetland for wastewater treatment

(Corresponding) Gonzalez T., Miranda J., Vidal G.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

The combination of constructed wetlands (CWs) and microbial fuel cells (MFCs) has emerged in recent years with the purpose of enhancing wastewater treatment efficiency of CWs while simultaneously generating electricity. Taking the above into account, the aim of this study is to evaluate the...Read more

UN(K)NOWN Project: Development of Anammox microbial inocula to improve nitrogen removal efficiency in wastewater treatment

(Corresponding) Ribeiro H., Machado A., Costa-Dias S., Wijaya I., Salgado P., Bordalo A., Teixeira C.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

The discovery of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) revealed the existence of a shortcut in the classic nitrogen cycle where ammonium is converted directly to dinitrogen gas. Anammox process can be used to develop more cost and energy-efficient sustainable nitrogen removal systems comparing to...Read more

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

Novel Polyethersulfone (PES) Alpha-Zirconium Phosphate (α-ZrP) Ion Exchange Mixed Matrix Membranes for Effective Removal of Heavy Metals from Wastewater

ABDULKARIM E., IBRAHIM Y., (Corresponding) HASAN S., NADDEO V., BANAT F.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

In this study, novel polyethersulfone (PES) alpha-zirconium (α-ZrP) ion exchange mixed matrix membranes were fabricated via phase inversion method using nano-sized alpha-zirconium phosphate (α-ZrP-n) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as dispersant nano-additives in the dope solution preparation. The...Read more

Use of residues from Eucalyptus Globulus as biosorbents for cadmium removal

(Corresponding) Hansen H., Gutierrez C., Alarcon J., Lazo A., Hansen M., Lazo P., Ortiz R.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

The present work studied the removal of cadmium from aqueous solutions by a series of batch sorption experiments using Eucalyptus Globulus bark and seeds as biosorbents. Both biosorbents showed good results in cadmium removal. The best results were obtained when working with a particle size < 75...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
