Mixed Culture Acclimatization and Biodegradation of Chlorophenols in Shake Flasks: Effect of the Inoculum Source
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Shake flask reactors with different inocula were run for the treatment of chlorophenols present in wastewaters. The three different inocula were obtained from—sewage treatment plant, refinery effluent treatment plant (ETP), ...
Solubilization of Heavy Metals during Anaerobic Digestion of Sewage Sludge Using Acidogenesis
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Sewage sludge produced by many municipal wastewater treatment plants contains various heavy metals that limit its use on agricultural land. The existing treatment processes for removing heavy metals are not cost-effective ...
Energy Audit, Solids Reduction, and Pathogen Inactivation in Secondary Sludges during Batch Thermophilic Aerobic Digestion Process
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A typical secondary wastewater treatment sludge was digested aerobically in a batch digester in the temperature range of
Acclimatization of Anaerobic Sludge to Treat Cr (VI) and 4-CP Present in Industrial Effluents and Their Effect on Microbial Communities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Improved Stability of Anaerobic Digestion through the Use of Selective Acidogenic Culture
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Accumulation of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) under overloading conditions in anaerobic reactors is a common problem. There is a need to stop this accumulation to improve reactor stability. In this study, propionate-, ...
Recent Advances in Bioremediation of Heavy Metals and Metal Complex Dyes: Review
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A huge amount of effluents contaminated with heavy metals and metal complex dyes are generated every day from various industries. Biological treatment using various microorganisms (bacteria, algae, and fungi) is considered ...

Zinc Uptake by Fungal Biomass Isolated from Industrial Wastewater
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the present work, the biosorption potential of a fungal strain isolated from industrial wastewaters contaminated with zinc and other heavy metals has been investigated. Zinc biosorption studies using the fungi were ...
