Establishing log reduction values for wastewater treatment processes from ambient influent and effluent pathogen monitoring data

Data on pollutants content in the influent and effluent from wastewater treatment plant of Rasht in Guilan Province, Iran

Data on this paper show the concentrations of COD, BOD5, TSS, K+, Ca2+, Na+, Cl-, [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], Mn2+, Fe2+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Ni, Pb, Cu and Cd in the influent and effluent of wastewater, and also the nematode eggs, total and fecal coliform in effluents from wastewater treatment plant of Rasht, Guilan Province, in Iran. Measurements of pollutants in influent and effluent w...

Investigation of Androgen Receptor Antagonist Compounds Present in Influent and Effluent from a Wastewater Works By

A wide range of synthetic chemicals and their metabolites present in the environment can antagonise the receptor activity of androgen hormones present in wildlife and humans. With increasing global production of new synthetic chemicals, little is known about their environmental fate, health consequences and end-points. This study was conducted to identify and characterise chemicals with anti-an...

Physico-chemical Processes for Organic Removal from Wastewater Effluent

Quantitative real-time PCR of enteric viruses in influent and effluent samples from wastewater treatment plants in Italy.

The prevalence of enteric viruses in wastewater, the efficacy of wastewater treatments in eliminating such viruses, and potential health risks from their release into the environment or by recycling of treated wastewaters, are very important issues in environmental microbiology. In this study we performed a quantitative TaqMan real-time PCR (polymerase chain reaction) analysis of enteric viruse...

A novel approach for pathogen reduction in wastewater treatment

Many sewage waste treatment systems are aiming for complete pathogen removal which necessitates search for novel approaches that does not harm the environment. One such novel approach is exploring the possibilities of bacteriophages for pathogen removal. Hospital wastewater was collected from different locations of Tamil Nadu and used for the study. The total heterotroph and total coliform popu...
