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

Tuning of an advanced control system on a membrane process for tannery wastewater purification and chromium recovery purposes

Marchetti A., (Corresponding) Stoller M.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Tannery wastewater represent a hazard to the environment due to its high content of chromium. Conventional methods to purify this wastewater stream are available, but not capable to recover back chromium to the tannery process. Membranes appears to be a promising technology to achieve both targets...Read more

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

Hybrid zero liquid discharge (ZLD) membrane/chemical process for the treatment of oil sands produced water

Mohammadtabar F., (Corresponding) Khorshidi B., Hayatbakhsh A., (Corresponding) Sadrzadeh M.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

In this study, the applicability of a hybrid chemical/membrane process for the treatment of the boiler blow-down (BBD) water from steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) operation was explored. For the chemical pre-treatment prior to the membrane filtration, another waste stream of SAGD, i.e., ion...Read more

TREATMENT OF SLAUGHTER HOUSE WASTEWATER UTILIZING COGON GRASS (Imperata cylindrica) IN A SUBSURFACE FLOW SYSTEM CONSTRUCTED WETLAND IN ZAMBOANGA CITY, PHILIPPINES

(Corresponding) Flores R., (Corresponding) Adil J.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Natural treatment systems are gaining a preference for wastewater treatment as an ecosystem-based adaptation to climate change. This study investigated the performance of a laboratory scale horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetland (SSFCW) planted with cogon grass (Imperata cylindrica) in...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

(Corresponding) Mazzeo L., Bavasso I., Di Palma L.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis miller) waste obtained from a local cosmetic production factory was used as bio-adsorbent for the removal of three different dyes: Methylene Blue (MB), Rhodamine B (RB) and Methyl Orange (MO). The material was preliminary washed with water at room temperature. Batch...Read more
