Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced anaerobic biodegradability and inactivation of fecal coliforms and Salmonella spp. in wastewater sludge by using microwaves.
TL;DR: During continuous operation of three mesophilic-anaerobic digesters, the effect of microwave irradiation, as sludge thermal pretreatment (60 to 65 degrees C), was studied, increasing the biogas production by 16.4 +/- 5.6% and 6.3 +/- 2.4%, as compared to control and conventionally heated/digested sludge, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Orthophosphate removal from domestic wastewater using limestone and granular activated carbon
Sabir Hussain,Sabir Hussain,Hamidi Abdul Aziz,Mohamed Hasnain Isa,Anees Ahmad,John van Leeuwen,Linda Zou,Simon Beecham,Muhammad Umar +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the adsorption behavior of limestone (LS), granular activated carbon (GAC) and the mixture of both adsorbents for orthophosphate removal from domestic wastewater.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of sequencing batch reactors and Fenton’s reagent to treat a wastewater from a textile industry
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential of biological treatment as a single process as well as in association with chemical oxidation to treat a textile wastewater was investigated, and the experimental part incorporated the following three schemes: biological treatment only (stage 1), chemical oxidation prior to biological treatment (stage 2), and biological treatment followed by chemical oxidation (stage 3).
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetic Model of Biogas Yield Production from Vinasse at Various Initial pH: Comparison between Modified Gompertz Model and First Order Kinetic Model
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used modified Gompertz model and first order kinetic model at variation of initial pH to model the kinetic of biogas production using batch anaerobic digesters at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermophilic anaerobic digestion of pulp and paper mill primary sludge and co-digestion of primary and secondary sludge.
Suvi Bayr,Jukka Rintala +1 more
TL;DR: P pH adjustment and nitrogen deficiency needs to be considered when planning anaerobic digestion of pulp and paper mill wastewater sludges.
