Rotating biological contactors for wastewater treatment - A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rotating biological contactors (RBCs) for wastewater treatment began in the 1970s. Removal of organic matter has been targeted within organic loading rates of up to 120 g m−2 d−1 with an optimum at around 15 g m−2 d−1 for combined BOD and ammonia removal.

Searching for indigenous anaerobic ammonium oxidizing (anammox) bacteria in South African habitats: Pretoria region

open access: yesBiotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2016
In South Africa, the information about the distribution and activity of anaerobic ammonium oxidizing (anammox) bacteria is very limited and anammox systems have not yet been tested and implemented.

On-line dynamic monitoring of the SHARON process for sustainable nitrogen removal from wastewater [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The goal of this work is the development of a suitable monitoring module, which is to be the first module of an integrated fault detection and control system for the SHARON process. To model the process properly, different PCA models lire tested.

A unique bacteriohopanetetrol stereoisomer of marine anammox [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) is a major process of bioavailable nitrogen removal from marine systems. Previously, a bacteriohopanetetrol (BHT) isomer, with unknown stereochemistry, eluting later than BHT using high performance liquid ...

ZeroWasteWater: short-cycling of wastewater resources for sustainable cities of the future [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Sewage treatment relies mainly on conventional activated sludge (CAS) systems, reaching sufficiently low pollutant effluent levels. Yet, CAS has a low cost-effectiveness and recovery potential and a high electricity demand and environmental footprint. By

Microbially driven organic carbon cycling at the land−sea interface: Advances and an integrated study framework

open access: yesmLife, EarlyView.
Abstract The land−sea interface is a vital component of global biogeochemical cycles, where microorganisms drive the cycling of carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur. This review synthesizes the research progress from representative land−sea interfaces to elucidate how the microbial community structure and metabolic function influence the mobilization ...
