11. Nitritation and denitritation in sludge liquor treatment
Abstract : Enhanced biological nitrogen removal at municipal wastewater treatment plants is a common procedure to prevent eutrophication in water bodies. Increased load, stricter effluent regulations, and demands for reduced resource and energy consumption present new challenges for the wastewater treatment plants. READ MORE

12. Antimicrobials in sewage treatment plants : occurrence, fate and resistance
Abstract : The World Health Organization (WHO) has identified antibiotic resistance as a major threat to human health. The environment has been suggested to play an important role in the emergence of antibiotic resistant bacteria. The external environment can act as a source of resistance genes that could potentially be transferred into human pathogens. READ MORE

13. Dynamic Modeling of Nitrifying Trickling Filters
Abstract : Trickling filters, one kind of biofilm reactors, for removal of nitrogen in municipal wastewater are presently increasing in number in Sweden. For improved control and operation of wastewater treatment plants, where such reactors are used, dynamic models describing their behavior are necessary. READ MORE

14. Upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor : modelling
Abstract : Anaerobic treatment is widely used around the world as a biological stage in both domestic and industrial wastewater-treatment plants. The two principal advantages of anaerobic over aerobic treatment are the production of biogas, which can be used as fuel, and the lower rate of biomass production, which results in lower maintenance costs for the plant.

15. 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.
