2. 1. An add-on filter technique to improve micropollutant removal and water quality in on-site sewage treatment facilities

   Author : Wen Zhang; Gunno Renman; Erik Kärrman; Carlos Alberto Arias; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Micropollutant; on-site sewage facilities; physicochemical properties; pore structure; sorbents; surface functional group; Mark- och vattenteknik; Land and Water Resources Engineering;

   Abstract : Onsite sewage treatment facilities (OSSFs) in Sweden currently release significant amounts of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) into groundwater or/and receiving water bodies. Micropollutants (MPs) have been found in both surface water and groundwater, indicating insufficient removal of MPs by OSSFs. READ MORE

4. 2. Targeted and untargeted analysis of organic contaminants from on-site sewage treatment facilities : Removal, fate and environmental impact

   Abstract : On-site sewage treatment facilities (OSSFs) are widely used all over the world to treat wastewater when large-scale sewage treatment plants (STPs) are not economically feasible. Although there is great awareness that the release of untreated wastewater into the environment can lead to water-related diseases and eutrophication, little is known about organic contaminants and their removal by OSSFs, environmental load and fate.

5. 3. Phosphorus transport and reduction in compact-bed filters : simulations and experiments

   Author : Amir Jourak; Andy George; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

   Abstract : Excessive release of phosphorus from the effluent of on-site sanitation facilities to the environment is one source of aquatic pollution. The primary effect of excess phosphorus in the aquatic environment is eutrophication. READ MORE
