Nitrification inhibition test of salty wastewater containing Tetrakishydroxymethyl phosphonium sulphate (THPS), formaldehyde and methanol using salt-adapted nitrifying bacteria, an alternative test method to ISO method

(Corresponding) Chhetri R., Kokkoli A., Karvelas S., Andersen H.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
Nitrification inhibition test is a standard method to test if the chemicals or samples received by wastewater treatment plant are toxic to the nitrifying bacteria in the wastewater treatment plant. Nitrification inhibition test based on ISO method ISO9509 or modified ISO9509 method (REFLAB method)...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

Treatment of High Strength Industrial Wastewater utilizing Canna X generalis in a Simulated Vertical Flow Constructed Wetland Set-up

(Corresponding) Ballesteros F., Antonio H., Esguerra G.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
In the Philippines, DENR has mandated the regulation of oil and grease, COD, and TSS for automotive parts manufacturers. Wastewaters from industries have varying pollution strength that requires efficient treatment systems of combined physical, biological, and chemical processes. However, these...Read more

Removal of heavy metals from sewage sludge using combined hydrothermal pretreatment and chelate extraction

(Corresponding) Usťak S., Muňoz J.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
The removal of heavy metals from sewage sludge using the combined influence of hydrothermal pretreatment and chelate extraction was tested. The classical method of batch extraction with chelates and the advanced hydrothermal pretreatment (HTP) extraction process with chelates were compared. Both...Read more
