Phosphorus removal in passive treatment technologies for tertiary wastewater treatment [PDF]
The treatment of phosphorus at small sewage works requires alternative approaches to the traditional chemical precipitation and biological removal pathways, as such approaches do not align well to the requirements at such a scale in relation to the use

Assessment of tertiary reed beds in chemically-dosed wastewater treatment plants for phosphorus removal [PDF]
Eutrophication is one of the problems affecting the environmental quality standards of fresh waters. Phosphorus (P) is considered a main nutrient contributing to this. In the UK, the Water Industry is responsible for c.

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]
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.

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]
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.

Removal and recovery of phosphorus from municipal wastewaters using a ferric nanoparticle adsorbent [PDF]
Phosphorus is removed from wastewater streams to prevent the ecologically harmful effects of eutrophication in receiving natural systems. Current chemical and biological techniques for removing phosphorus from wastewater are not able to practicably ...

Influence of pH on short-cut denitrifying phosphorus removal
Through a series of experiments using denitrifying phosphorus-accumulating sludge in sequencing batch reactors (SBRs), the variations of the intracellular polymers during the anaerobic phosphorus release process at different pH values were compared, the ...

Thermodynamics Analysis and Removal of P in a P-(M)-H2O System
In order to efficiently remove phosphorus, thermodynamic equilibrium diagrams of the P-H2O system and P-M-H2O system (M stands for Fe, Al, Ca, Mg) were analyzed by software from Visual MINTEQ to identify the existence of phosphorus ions and metal ions as
