Pathogen removal mechanisms in anoxic wastewater stabilization ponds
Water Science and Technology, 1996 Anoxic wastewater stabilization ponds can reduce land requirements by as much as two-thirds of that required for facultative ponds and can avoid the environmental nuisances of odour and corrosion, compared with anaerobic ponds. When effluent reuse is to be considered, the aim of wastewater treatment is not only to reduce degradable organic matter but ...

Modelling sludge accumulation in anaerobic wastewater stabilization ponds
Water Science and Technology, 1995 Sludge accumulation in the first anaerobic pond at the Alsamra Wastewater Treatment Plant in Jordan has been monitored over a period of years. Homogeneous distribution of sludge over the pond bottom has not been achieved. The maximum amount of sludge has not accumulated near the inlet.

Occurrence of Clostridium difficile in two types of wastewater treatment plants
Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2015 Wastewater is a potential environmental source of Clostridium difficile, although a direct link with community-acquired C. difficile infection (CA-CDI) in humans has not yet been established. The present study was performed to determine the occurrence of

Variability in phytoplankton community structure and influence on stabilization pond functioning
Revista Ambiente & Água, 2020 Density of phytoplankton in stabilization ponds influences treatment performance. The study hypothesized that the phytoplankton community structure varies according to local and temporal changes and consequently influences the treatment of the effluent ...

Mathematical modeling and optimization of wastewater stabilization ponds using nonlinear programming
Mehran University Research Journal of Engineering and Technology, 2023 This research work proposes a mathematical optimization model for constructing two ponds (1. Facultative pond and 2. Maturation pond) provided in series. The model uses concrete volume as its objective minimization function.
