Thermophilic Aerobic Wastewater Treatment in Continuous-Flow Bioreactors
TL;DR: Investigation into the bacterial community structure by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of polymerase chain reaction-amplified 16S ribosomal RNA genes revealed that the dominant phylotypes in the bioreactors changed as a function of HRT, which increased catabolic enzyme activities specific to the principal organics in the synthetic wastewater.
Journal ArticleDOI
Greywater treatment using different designs of sand filters
TL;DR: Different designs of sand filter as a secondary treatment step for the treatment of the primary sedimented effluent were studied in this paper, where the final effluent of GFSF and HFSF were found to be complying with the National Regulatory Standards for the treated effluent reuse in irrigation.

Modeling the major limitations on nitrification in floating-bead filters.
TL;DR: In this article, a model was developed and calibrated to experimental data, to formulate a theoretical description of nitrification in bead filters, and the model results were consistent with the literature, indicating that the inverse relationship between solids accumulation and nitrification is mediated by an oxygen limitation.

A review of the impact and potential of intermittent aeration on continuous flow nitrifying activated sludge
TL;DR: Intermittent aeration of activated sludge plants (ASPs) is a potential strategy that may help deliver reduced operational costs while providing an adequate effluent quality as mentioned in this paper.

A one-dimensional reactive multi-component landfill leachate transport model
Jahangir Islam,Naresh Singhal +1 more
TL;DR: A one-dimensional reactive multi-component landfill leachate transport model coupled to three modules (geochemical equilibrium, kinetic biodegradation, and kinetic precipitation–dissolution) is presented to simulate the migration of contaminants in soils under landfills to demonstrate the effect of microbial activity on the evolution of porosity reduction of soils under the landfill.
