  1. 1. Removal of endocrine-disrupting compounds from wastewater using molecular imprinting

    Author : Mathieu Le Noir; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; molecular imprinting; Endocrine-disrupting compounds; wastewater; macroporous gel; trace contaminants;

    Abstract : Endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) such as hormones and certain pharmaceuticals (i.e. birth control pills, oestrogen replacement products and other steroids) can interfere with the regulatory systems of humans and wildlife. Many of these compounds are excreted by humans and released with sewage. READ MORE

  2. 2. Unlocking Sustainability in Wastewater Denitrification through Waste-Derived Volatile Fatty Acids

    Author : Tugba Sapmaz; Mohammad J Taherzadeh; Eric D. Van Hullebusch; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; volatile fatty acids; wastewater denitrification; ammonium removal; sustainable carbon source; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning;

    Abstract : Carbon sources play a critical role in biological nitrogen removal during wastewater treatment, where strict total nitrogen limits on effluent discharge apply. Organic carbon sources serve as electron donors in the denitrification for heterotrophic denitrifiers. READ MORE

  3. 3. Microbial Phosphorus Removal in Waste Stabilisation Pond Wastewater Treatment Systems

    Author : Lydia Ambakisye Mbwele; Gunnel Dalhmmar; Ingrid Faye; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wastewater treatment; waste stabilisation ponds; activated sludge; biological phosphorus removal; tropical climate; A.hydrophylla; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

    Abstract : Waste Stabilisation Ponds (WSPs) are characterised by low phosphorus (P) removal capacity. Heterotrophic bacteria are principal microbial agents in WSPs in addition to algae. READ MORE

  4. 4. Treatment of Textile Wastewater by Combining Biological Processes and Advanced Oxidation

    Author : Marisa Punzi; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Azo dye; textile wastewater; biological treatment; biofilm; microbial community; DGGE; green algae; photo-Fenton; ozone; toxicity; mutagenicity; LCA; cost analysis;

    Abstract : Treatment of textile wastewater is challenging because the water contains toxic compounds that have low biodegradability. Dyes, detergents, surfactants, biocides and more are used to improve the textile process and to make the clothes resistant to physical, chemical and biological agents. READ MORE

  5. 5. Fault Detection in Wastewater Treatment : Process Supervision to Improve Wastewater Reuse

    Author : Heidi Lynn Ivan; Monica Odlare; Valentina Zaccaria; Jan Skvaril; Tiina Komulainen; Mälardalens universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wastewater treatment; Process supervision; Fault Detection; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : As wastewater treatment plants transition to water resource recovery facilities, the need for improved control and consequently supervision increases. Despite the large volume of research that has been performed on this topic, the use in industry is scarce. READ MORE
