Technobiological Pathways for High‐CO₂ Capture Using Micro‐/Macroalgae: Genetic Engineering, Process Automation, and Value‐Added Bioproducts

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have emerged as one of the most critical drivers of climate change; this is primarily due to high concentrations and long atmospheric life of carbon dioxide (CO2). For a significant amount of time, various biological processes such as microalgal cultivation, cyanobacterial systems, photosynthetic microorganisms ...

Optimization of mesophilic anaerobic digestion of a conventional activated sludge plant for sustainability

Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2019
Potential of nutrient recovery as struvite (NH4MgPO4·6H2O) with sole waste activated sludge (WAS) of a conventional activated sludge treatment plant has been investigated using computational modelling supported by laboratory experiments.

Process for purification of waste water produced by a Kraft process pulp and paper mill [PDF]

, 1979
The water from paper and pulp wastes obtained from a mill using the Kraft process is purified by precipitating lignins and lignin derivatives from the waste stream with quaternary ammonium compounds, removing other impurities by activated carbon produced

Characterization of natural Yemeni zeolites as powder sorbents for ammonium valorization from domestic waste water streams using high rate activated sludge processes [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND In this study three natural Yemeni zeolites (NZ1, NZ2 and NZ3) having major minerals such as clinoptilolite and mordenite, were evaluated as low cost sorbents for the removal and recovery of ammonium ions.

Nocardia effects in waste activated sludge

Water Science and Technology, 1998
Two effects of Nocardia in waste activated sludge (WAS) were investigated: (i) the influence of WAS in the solids treatment recycle streams on Nocardia persistence in the activated sludge, and (ii) the effect of Nocardia in WAS on anaerobic digester foaming.

Sustainable Graphene Oxide–Intercalated Bentonite Composite for the Effective Removal of Imidacloprid From Water: Adsorption Performance, Isotherm, and Kinetics

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental necessity for our existence, but its rapid contamination is causing devastating effects on the environment and health of living species worldwide. Adsorptive removal of pollutants is one of the popular water treatment techniques because of its simplicity, affordability, and the broad range of available adsorbents.

Bioplastic polyhydroxyalkanoate conversion in waste activated sludge

Journal of Environmental Management
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) have been proposed as a promising solution for plastic pollution due to their biodegradability and diverse applications. To promote PHA as a competitive commercial product, an attractive alternative is to produce and recover PHA in the use of mixed cultures such as waste activated sludge from wastewater treatment plants. PHA
