Abstract: A kinetic model (incorporating intrinsic Haldane kinetics) and an empirical model (incorporating apparent Haldane kinetics) for phenol degradation in upflow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB) reactors were used. UASB-reactor ...

Abstract: From the performance data of the upflow sludge bed (USB) reactors (with sufficient carbon), the rate-limiting step in denitrification is nitrate reduction. Biological denitrification in the USB reactors (superficial ...

Abstract: Laboratory-scale temperature-controlled reactors were used to generate experimental data of thermophilic composting of vegetable waste. By fitting in experimental data of thermophilic composting, the obtained empirical ...

Abstract: The performance of the conventional activated-sludge reactor (CASR) treating high-salinity, fish market wastewater (212–345 mg biochemical oxygen demand/L) can be enhanced by the addition of phototrophic bacteria (PTB). ...
