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

Elimination of relevant pharmaceuticals in hospital wastewater from Colombia by combination of a biological system with a sonochemical process

(Corresponding) TORRES PALMA R., Serna-Galvis E., Silva-Agredo J.

Topic:

Advanced oxidation processes

This work presents the treatment of selected emerging concern pharmaceuticals in real hospital wastewater (HWW) from Tumaco-Colombia by combination of a biological system with a sonochemical process. Fifteen compounds, commonly present in HWW, were considered: acetaminophen, diclofenac,...Read more
