Self-tuning PID based on adaptive genetic algorithms with the application of activated sludge aeration process

open access: yes, 2006
Activated sludge aeration process is a non-linear system subject to large perturbations in flow and load, together with uncertainties on the composition of the incoming wastewater. Traditional PID control lacks the ability to overcome these disturbances.

Waste activated sludge high‐rate treatment of septage: Stabilization phase trials and comparison with winery wastewater treatment

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Performance evaluation of the waste activated sludge high‐rate (WASHR) process for septic wastewater treatment. Abstract The waste‐activated sludge high‐rate (WASHR) process is evaluated as a batch‐mode pre‐treatment for actual septage using a high‐rate contact stabilization (HRCS) approach.

Causes and control of low F/M bulking in long sludge age nutrient removal activated sludge systems

open access: yes, 1993
Includes bibliography.A problem plaguing the greater proportion of nutrient removal activated sludge systems treating municipal sewage, is the prolific growth of :filamentous organisms (bulking), which inhibits the rate of sludge settling in the ...

Dinitrogen oxide production by a mixed culture of nitrifying bacteria during ammonia shock loading and aeration failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A number of experiments was conducted in order to establish if N2O in the exhaust gas from an aerobic consortium of nitrifiers could be used as an indicator for monitoring the nitrification process.

Synergistic Photo‐Electro‐Fenton Oxidation of Antibiotics Using a Ferrocene‐Functionalized MXene (Ti3C2Tx) Electrode

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
2D MXene (Ti3C2Tx)‐based electrode setup for hybrid photo‐electro‐Fenton degradation of antibiotic (tetracycline). The persistence of antibiotics such as tetracycline in aquatic systems poses severe environmental and health risks by potential antimicrobial resistance.

Nanofiber PVA‐Based Membranes Incorporating Functionalized Spanish Broom Derivatives for Sustainable Water Purification

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study investigates Spanish broom (Spartium junceum) as a renewable source for electrospun composite membranes in sustainable water purification. MCC and biochar were functionalized with eco‐friendly precursors and nanomaterials (i.e., HNT, β‐CDs) to develop hybrid PVA nanofiber composites.
