Methods for the separation of hydraulic retention time and solids retention time in the application of photosynthetic microorganisms in photobioreactors: a review. [PDF]
AbstractPhotosynthetic microorganisms have a wide range of biotechnical applications, through the application of their versatile metabolisms. However, their use in industry has been extremely limited to date, partially because of the additional complexities associated with their cultivation in comparison to other organisms.

The effect of CO2 addition and hydraulic retention time on pathogens removal in HRAPs [PDF]
Abstract The influence of CO2 addition and hydraulic retention time (5 and 7 days) on removal of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Clostridium perfringens, Staphylococcus sp., Enterococcus sp., and Escherichia coli was evaluated in a system with three parallel 21 L high rate algal ponds.

Swine effluent treatment using anaerobic digestion at different loading rates [PDF]
The industrial swine production is characterized by generation of significant effluent amounts that require treatment. The most adopted practices by Brazilian swine farmers have been wastewater storage in lagoons and its subsequent use as a biofertilizer.

Effect of hydraulic retention time on the electro-bioremediation of nitrate in saline groundwater
Bioelectrochemical systems (BES) have proven their capability to treat nitrate-contaminated saline groundwater and simultaneously recover value-added chemicals (such as disinfection products) within a circular economy-based approach. In this study, the effect of the hydraulic retention time (HRT) on nitrate and salinity removal, as well as on free ...

The effect of the Geometric Shape of Bioreactors and Organic Matter on the Efficiency of Nitrate Removal from Drainage Water [PDF]
Denitrification bioreactors for nitrate removal from agricultural water effluents have improved in recent years due to their low cost and ease of use. Scientific results and local experience are required for the optimal use of bioreactors.

Possibilities of Obtaining Biogas from Manure and Amaranth
Introduction. The use of biomass allows increasing the rate of biogas formation and its specific yield. This work aims to study the kinetics of methanogenesis and determine the optimal duration of digestion and organic load, which are the main indicators

Effect of hydraulic retention time on continuous biocatalytic calcification reactor
High calcium concentrations in the wastewaters are problematic, because they lead to clogging of pipelines, boilers and heat exchangers through scaling (as carbonate, sulfate or phosphate precipitates), or malfunctioning of aerobic and anaerobic reactors.
