Abstract: An experimental anaerobic biofilm fluidized bed reactor (ABFBR) unit was run with artificial substrate during 314 days. The experimental data were classified according to the value of the influent flow rate, and a set of ...

Abstract: The multiple-tray aerator is an effective technology for chemical stabilization and corrosion control at small, medium, and large public drinking-water treatment facilities, because of significant savings in chemical costs. ...

Abstract: Understanding that there is a significant presence of extracellular polymeric substances at the biofilm/wastewater interface and that the primary constituent of chemical oxygen demand (COD) in domestic wastewaters is organic ...

Abstract: Recent investigations have demonstrated that it is feasible to utilize a combined technology, consisting of an upflow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB) reactor for anaerobic pretreatment, followed by aerobic posttreatment, to ...

Abstract: Anaerobic pretreatment followed by aerobic posttreatment of municipal wastewater is being used more frequently. Recent investigations in this field using an anaerobic fluidized bed reactor/aerobic solids contact combination ...

Abstract: The purpose of a sanitary sewer is to carry the peak discharge at the end of the design period, and to transport suspended materials under all flow conditions to prevent deposition of solids, and hence, sewer blockages. ...

Abstract: The trickling filter/solids contact (TF/SC) process was developed in the late 1970s to improve the quality of the final effluent from existing trickling filter plants, to be able to meet stricter Environmental Protection ...
