Microalgae to energy: biomass recovery and pre-treatments optimisation for biogas production integrated with wastewater nutrients removal [PDF]
, 2014 The increasing concern about water quality and energy demand promotes the development of innovative and low-cost processes to improve the nutrient uptake and energy efficiency of existing wastewater treatments (WWT).

Using the activated sludge model 2d (ASM2d) to understand and predict the phosphorus accumulating organisms mechanism in enhanced biological phosphorus removal in relation to disintegrated sludge as a carbon source [PDF]
, 2012 Carbon sources are considered as one of the most important factors in the performance of enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR). Disintegrated sludge (DS) can act as carbon source to increase the efficiency of EBPR.

Mechanical sludge disintegration for the production of carbon source for biological nutrient removal. [PDF]
, 2007 The primary driver for a successful biological nutrient removal is the availability of suitable carbon source, mainly in the form of volatile fatty acids (VFA). Several methods have been examined to increase the amount of VFAs in wastewater.

Effect of influent nutrient ratios and hydraulic retention time (HRT) on simultaneous phosphorus and nitrogen removal in a two-sludge sequencing batch reactor process [PDF]
, 2009 A laboratory-scale anaerobic–anoxic/nitrification sequencing batch reactor (A2N- SBR) fed with domestic wastewater was operated to examine the effect of varying ratios of influent COD/P, COD/TN and TN/P on the nutrient removal.

Nutrient removal from wastewaters using high performance materials
Water Science and Technology, 2003 Return side streams from anaerobic digesters and dewatering facilities at wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) contribute a significant proportion of the total nitrogen load on a mainstream process. Similarly, significant phosphate loads are also recirculated in biological nutrient removal (BNR) wastewater treatment plants.

Kinetics of nutrient removal in an on-site domestic wastewater treatment facility
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 Domestic wastewater from office building has not been maintained well especially in the areas where the sewerage system is unavailable. The aims of this research were to investigate the performance and kinetics of nutrient removal in an on-site domestic ...
