Simultaneous removal of COD and ammonium from landfill leachate using an anaerobic-aerobic moving-bed biofilm reactor system.
TL;DR: The performance of a moving-bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) system with an anaerobic-aerobic arrangement was investigated to treat landfill leachate for simultaneous removal of COD and ammonium and it was found that theAnaerobic MBBR played a major role in COD removal due to methanogenesis, and the aerobic MBBR acted as COD-polishing and ammonia removal step.

Energy recovery from wastewaters with high-rate anaerobic digesters
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors trace the evolution of high-rate anaerobic digester technology and provide an overview of its present capabilities and make a case for an accelerated shift from energy-intensive aerobic processes to anaerobatic processes which are not only more energy-efficient but enable global warming control by methane capture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Treatment of pesticide wastewater by moving-bed biofilm reactor combined with Fenton-coagulation pretreatment.
TL;DR: With the improvement of biodegradability by using Fenton pretreatment, also due to the high concentration of biomass and high biofilm activity using the fluidizing bio-carriers, high removal efficiency and stable operation could be achieved in the biological process even at a high COD loading.
