Journal ArticleDOI
Microalgae cultivation for municipal and piggery wastewater treatment in Brazil
TL;DR: In this paper, a pilot treatment system consisting of UASB as pre-treatment and Chlorella sorokiniana cultivation in three flat panel photobioreactors was monitored for four weeks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microalgae harvesting from wastewater by pH modulation and flotation: Assessing and optimizing operational parameters.
TL;DR: The results showed the pH modulation and DAF as an effective process for wastewater treatment and biomass harvesting and indicated the importance of operational optimization, not studied until now, in which the achieved results could be potentially applied as practical guidelines for microalgae harvesting on a large scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coagulation and dissolved air flotation as a harvesting method for microalgae cultivated in wastewater
TL;DR: In this article, coagulation followed by dissolved air flotation (DAF) was used as a harvesting method for Chlorella sorokiniana cultivated in wastewater, and the harvesting performance was evaluated using four coagulants (aluminum sulphate, ferric chloride, Tanfloc SG and Zetag 8185) usually used in water or wastewater treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chlorine and peracetic acid in decentralized wastewater treatment: Disinfection, oxidation and odor control
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the application of chlorine and peracetic acid (PAA) in two biological reactor effluents regarding disinfection, organic matter oxidation, and odor control.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results confirm the need to investigate the composition of wastewater prior to alkaline flocculation, and interrupt microalgae flocculating by preferentially interacting with positively charged CaP precipitates.
