Safety and Effectiveness of Struvite from Black Water and Urine as a Phosphorus Fertilizer [PDF]
To ensure food supply, phosphorus must be recycled, for which an appealing method is using struvite fertilizer from human excreta. One struvite from black water and another from urine were assessed for safety under Dutch regulations, and for ...

Cobalt toxicity in anaerobic granular sludge: influence of chemical speciation [PDF]
The influence of cobalt speciation on the toxicity of cobalt to methylotrophic methanogenesis in anaerobic granular sludge was investigated. The cobalt speciation was studied with three different media that contained varying concentrations of complexing ...

Forecasting wind speed data by using a combination of ARIMA model with single exponential smoothing [PDF]
Wind serves as natural resources as the solution to minimize global warming and has been commonly used to produce electricity. Because of their uncontrollable wind characteristics, wind speed forecasting is considered one of the best challenges in ...

Thermophilic anaerobic digestion of methanol in UASB reactor
A 5.1 L laboratory scale upflow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB) reactor was operated at 55°C over 130 days in order to investigate the feasibility of treating methanol-containing wastewater under thermophilic conditions, focussing on start-up and process stability.

UASB-reactor in the fruit juice industry
This paper presents experiences with a full scale UASB-reactor in a fruit juice factory. The focus is on demonstrating that a UASB-reactor is as suitable for campaign industries running only 2 months a year with higher concentrated wastewater as well as for the time outside the campaign when the wastewater concentrations are very low (average COD 1000 ...

Quantitative Detection of Syntrophic Fatty Acid-degrading Bacterial Communities in Methanogenic Environments [PDF]
In methanogenic habitats, volatile fatty acids (VFA), such as propionate and butyrate, are major intermediates in organic matter degradation. VFA are further metabolized to H2, acetate and CO2 by syntrophic fatty acid-degrading bacteria (SFAB) in ...

The state of knowledge on the microbiological aspects of granular methanogenic sludge in upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors is reviewed. Granular methanogenic sludge has been observed in a variety of upflow reactors, which is in agreement with the hypothesis that these systems select for well settling sludges. In methanogenic UASB reactors

Developing a multi-criteria decision support system based on fuzzy analytical hierarchical process (AHP) method for selection of appropriate high-strength wastewater treatment plant [PDF]
The selection of an optimum treatment process for high-strength wastewater is complicated. Familiarity with wastewater treatment methods is not enough to design a plant and requires a multidisciplinary knowledge base.
