TL;DR: Physico-chemical treatment seems to be an attractive option for the cost-effective disposal of hospital effluents and the results of this study call for further detailed study in this area.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the substitution of textile ETP sludge for cement, up to a maximum of 30%, may be possible in the manufacturing of non-structural building materials.

TL;DR: The results of this study show that anaerobic ammonia removal is feasible in presence of OM, and the novel nitrogen removal route is hypothesized as enzymatic anoxic oxidation of NH(4)(+) to NO(3)(-), followed by denitrification via autotrophic and/or heterotrophic routes.

TL;DR: This work describes development of a microbial consortium dominant in anammox in presence of organic carbon (available through cell lyses) by employing simple sequencing batch operation in 23 cycles exceeding 400days.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the possibility of high rate treatment of tannery effluent in an alternate and an effective way suitable to both developing and developed countries, and present a recent development is the employment of alternate electron acceptor/donor for simultaneous removals of COD/BOD, NH4-N and sulphide/sulphate with possibility of elemental sulphur recovery at higher organic loading rates.
