Phytoplankton as bioindicator for waste stabilization ponds

Journal of Environmental Management, 2012
Waste stabilization ponds are an appropriate technology for domestic onsite wastewater treatment. It is a low-cost technology, requires low maintenance, is highly efficient, mostly natural and remarkably sustainable. In facultative ponds, the existence of an algal population is very important for the stability of the symbiotic relation with aerobic ...

Waste Stabilization Ponds and Lagoons

2009
One of the simplest forms of biological treatment processes is the stabilization pond or stabilization lagoon. It is also the most common industrial wastewater treatment facility. This versatile installation serves many basic purposes, including: (a) storage or impoundment of wastewater; (b) settling and removal of suspended solids; (c) storage or ...

Hydraulic Modeling for Waste Stabilization Ponds

Journal of the Environmental Engineering Division, 1981
Treatment performance of waste stabilization ponds is a function of both the hydraulic transport and the biological and chemical transformation processes within the pond. Both the efficient hydraulic design of these ponds and the appropriate mathematical models for describing the hydraulic transport process are identified.

Light penetration in waste stabilization ponds

Water Research, 1994
Abstract The penetration of light into waste stabilization ponds was studied because of its importance in pathogen removal and algal productivity. The attenuation of light in ponds was dominated by light absorption by gilvin (also called dissolved yellow matter or humic substances) and algae, light scattering processes (turbidity) being of no ...

Waste Stabilization Ponds in Europe

Water and Environment Journal, 1992
ABSTRACTThe European countries where sewage treatment in waste stabilization ponds is largely developed and commonly used are West Germany (more than 2000 operational systems) and France (about 2500 plants). Portugal has over 50 systems at present and will have about 100 by the year 1993.

Phosphorous Models for Waste Stabilization Ponds

Journal of Environmental Engineering, 1984
A laboratory investigation was conducted to evaluate the utilization and recycle of phosphorous in waste stabilization ponds (WSP). Two pond systems were operated under three different loading conditions during a period of 22 months. System I consisted of three series‐connected ponds: an anaerobic WSP followed by an intermediate facultative WSP and a ...

Loading Rates on Waste Stabilization Ponds

Journal of the Sanitary Engineering Division, 1969
Pond performance is affected by temperature, solar radiation, and wind-speed; therefore, facultative pond design should reflect the influence of local climatological conditions. Ponds located in mild climate areas are usually designed with higher loading rates than ponds in cold climate areas. Present recommended loading rates in the United States vary
