Combined use of anaerobic and aerobic moving bed biofilm reactors for micropollutants’ removal from wastewater
Kora E., Theodorelou D., Herpich A., Gatidou G., Fountoulakis M., (Corresponding) Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
A novel laboratory-scale continuous flow wastewater treatment system, consisting of an anaerobic moving bed biofilm reactor (AnMBBR) and an aerobic MBBR, was used for investigating the removal of hydroxybenzothiazole (OH-BTH) and selected benzotriazoles from municipal wastewater. The system was...Read more
Investigation of food additives readily biodegradability in respirometric tests
Vazaiou N., (Corresponding) Gatidou G., Arvaniti O., Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
The biodegradability of fourteen (14) food additives, belonging to different groups such as artificial sweeteners, preservatives and coloring agents, was evaluated using the OECD 301F protocol (manometric respirometry test). According to the results, seven out of fourteen compounds, namely...Read more
Study on the fate of the chemical uncoupler 3,3′,4′,5-tetrachlorosalicylanilide (TCSA) in activated sludge process and investigation of its effects to different aquatic organisms
(Corresponding) Gatidou G., Hatzopoulos P., Chhetri R., Kokkoli A., Giannakopoulos A., Arvaniti O., Andersen H., Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
This study examines the biodegradation of 3,3′,4′,5-tetrachlorosalicylanilide (TSCA) by activated sludge and investigates its effects to different aquatic organisms. According to the experimental results, the fate of the target compound in activated sludge systems is governed by the mechanisms of...Read more
