Insights into the Fate and Removal of Antibiotics in Engineered Biological Treatment Systems: A Critical Review

TL;DR: This review systematically summarizes the behavior and removal of different antibiotics in various biological treatment systems with discussion on their removal efficiency, removal mechanisms, critical bioreactor operating conditions affecting antibiotics removal, and recent innovative advancements.
Journal ArticleDOI

An integrative review of granular sludge for the biological removal of nutrients and recalcitrant organic matter from wastewater

TL;DR: The macro-scale factors impacting granulation, the physical-chemical characteristics of granular sludge, and fundamental and applied questions driven by the microbial ecology of granularity sludge are critically examined to generate useful concepts for process design and evaluation in engineering practice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) scouring to mitigate membrane fouling: Performance, hydrodynamic mechanism and contribution quantification model.

TL;DR: An in-depth understanding is provided to mitigate the MBR membrane fouling by the unique advantages of sludge granulation by analyzing the contribution rate of AGS scouring effect to mitigate membranes fouling.
Journal ArticleDOI

A critical review on ammonium recovery from wastewater for sustainable wastewater management.

TL;DR: The comprehensively and critically review studies on ammonium recovery conducted, have the potential to be applied in current wastewater treatment operations and the economic feasibility of such processes is analysed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aerobic granular sludge: Cultivation parameters and removal mechanisms.

TL;DR: In this paper, the main parameters responsible for AGS formation are hydrodynamic shear force, short periods and feast-famine cycles, however, some other parameters are associated with AGS maintenance after long periods of operation.

Composition and Distribution of Extracellular Polymeric Substances in Aerobic Flocs and Granular Sludge

TL;DR: The comparison of EPS extraction methods explains how significant cell lysis and contamination by dead biomass leads to different and opposing conclusions and indicates that granule formation and stability are dependent on a noncellular, protein core.

Aerobic granular sludge in a sequencing batch reactor

TL;DR: In this article, a laboratory scale sequencing batch reactor (SBR) granules were cultured under aerobic conditions, and granules taken from the reactor were stored for weeks without disintegrating.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simultaneous COD, nitrogen, and phosphate removal by aerobic granular sludge

TL;DR: Experimental results strongly suggest that P-removal occurs partly by (biologically induced) precipitation, and monitoring the laboratory scale reactors for a long period showed that N- Removal efficiency highly depends on the diameter of the granules.
