Screening of municipal effluents with the peroxidase toxicity assay

Discover Water
The peroxidase (Per) reaction is a quick and inexpensive biosensor for the screening of environmental contaminants and wastewaters. The purpose of this study was to screen various municipal wastewaters before and after 7 different types of treatment ...

Understanding methanotroph ecology in a biofilter for efficiently mitigating methane emissions : a thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Soil Science (Biotechnology) at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2016
In New Zealand, the majority of the greenhouse gas (GHG), methane (CH4) emissions are from the agriculture sector (enteric fermentation, manure management) and the remainder from solid waste disposal, coal mining and natural gas leaks.

Adult black soldier fly meal (imago, Hermetia illucens) as replacement for fish meal in diets for Pacific Whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei)

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Adult black soldier flies (imagines, Hermetia illucens) are a by‐product of large‐scale insect larvae production. The suitability of this novel sidestream as a protein source in diets for juvenile Whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei, initial weight 5–6 g) was investigated in controlled feeding experiments in recirculating aquaculture systems ...

Ammonia Removal Using Biotrickling Filters: Part B: Determination of the Nitrogen Accumulation in the Scrubbing Liquid at a Livestock Facility Using Electrical Conductivity Measurement

ChemEngineering, 2020
It was demonstrated that the daily monitoring of electrical conductivity (EC) of scrubbing water can easily be used to determine the performance of biotrickling filters treating ammonia (NH3) emissions, generated by livestock facilities.

Assessing Biofiltration without Ozonation for Removal of Trihalomethane Precursors in Drinking Water at the Beaver Water District Drinking Water Treatment Plant [PDF]

, 2018
Biofiltration without pre-ozonation has the capability to remove natural organic matter (NOM) fractions that serve as precursors of disinfection byproducts (DBPs), which include the four regulated trihalomethanes (THMs) and dichloroacetonitrile (DCAN ...

Phage‐Host Interactions in Flavobacterium Pathogens and the Potential of Phage‐Based Disease Control in Salmonid Aquaculture

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT A major bottleneck to the projected expansion of the aquaculture industry is disease outbreaks caused by bacterial pathogens. Fish diseases caused by Flavobacterium pathogens are persistent in salmonid aquaculture, and treatment is limited to antimicrobials, which contaminate the aquatic environment and promote antimicrobial resistance ...

Biofilter as pretreatment to membrane based desalination: Evaluation in terms of fouling index [PDF]

, 2009
The removal of particulate matter and dissolved organic matter from seawater by the use of biofiltration was investigated. Granular activated carbon (GAC) and anthracite were used as biofilter media at two different filtration velocities.

Nutrient Utilization in a Nile Tilapia and Garlic Aquaponic System Co‐Cultivated With Microalgae

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Microalgae are used in water treatment to remediate the water quality of aquaponic systems due to their remarkable adaptability. Their potential for nutrient utilization is significantly influenced by microalgae species, types of aquaponic plants, and growing conditions.
