Anaerobic co-digestion of sewage and brewery sludge for biogas production and land application.

TL;DR: In this paper, the possibility of mixing brewery sludge with sewage sludge at different mixing ratios for anaerobic digestion so that the energy can be generated as biogas and at the same time, digested sludge can be used as fertilizer for agricultural applications was explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Process configurations adapted to membrane bioreactors for enhanced biological phosphorous and nitrogen removal

TL;DR: In this article, an enhanced biological phosphorous (Bio-P) removal process was adapted to membrane bioreactor (MBR) and two medium-scale pilot plants were operated under several configurations, including predenitrification and post-denitification without addition of carbon source, and two solid retention times (SRT) of 15 and 26 d, in parallel to the full-scale Bio-P removal activated sludge plant of Berlin-Ruhleben.

The investigation of dairy industry wastewater treatment in a biological high performance membrane system

TL;DR: In this article, a high performance bioreactor, an aerobic jet loop reactor, combined with a ceramic membrane filtration unit, was used to investigate its suitability for the treatment of the dairy processing wastewater.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methanogenesis and sulfate reduction in chemostats—I. Kinetic studies and experiments

TL;DR: In this paper, six anaerobic chemostats containing mixed microbial cultures were used to investigate the interactions between sulfate reduction and methanogenesis for three substrates: acetic acid, methanol and formic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aerobic biodegradation of thiocyanate

TL;DR: Neither thiocyanate nor cyanate inhibited the aerobic removal and assimilation of organic compounds simulating typical municipal wastewaters, however, partial inhibition of nitrification, especially the conversion of nitrite to nitrate, was observed, and was attributed to thiOCyanate and/or free ammonia.
