Brine Effluents: Characteristics, Environmental Impacts, and Their Handling

TL;DR: In this paper, an overview of different types of brine effluents, their sources and characteristics are discussed, as well as impacts of brines on the environment and management options related to their characteristics.

Biogas upgrading by chemical absorption using ammonia rich absorbents derived from wastewater.

TL;DR: This demonstrates that ammonia rich wastewaters can facilitate chemically enhanced CO2 separation which eliminates the need for costly exogenic chemicals or complex chemical handling which are critical barriers to implementation of chemical absorption.

A unified theory for extracellular polymeric substances, soluble microbial products, and active and inert biomass.

TL;DR: A unified theory shows that the apparently distinct products from the SMP and EPS schools overlap each other, and shows that Soluble EPS is actually SMP, or the sum of UAP and BAP.

Microbial biomass measured as total lipid phosphate in soils of different organic content

TL;DR: In this article, the use of total lipid phosphate as a measure of biomass was evaluated in soils with different organic matter content, and the two digestion methods showed a good linear correlation (r2 = 0.991).
Journal ArticleDOI

The influence of key chemical constituents in activated sludge on surface and flocculating properties

TL;DR: The results reveal that the quality and quantity of the polymeric compounds within the sludge flocs is more informative, with respect to understanding the mechanisms involved in flocculation, than if only the extracted EPS are considered.

Phospholipid Ester-linked Fatty Acid Biomarkers of Acetate-oxidizing Sulphate-reducers and Other Sulphide-forming Bacteria

TL;DR: High levels of cyclopropyl fatty acids, including two isomers of both methylenehexadecanoic and methyleneheptadecanoics acids, were also characteristic of Desulfobacter spp.

Factors affecting the membrane performance in submerged membrane bioreactors

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the rise in transmembrane pressure (TMP) as a three-stage process, which occurs in a period of a few hours and involves abrupt TMP rise due to pore blockage and closure.
