Atrazine removal from aqueous solutions using submerged biological aerated filter
Atrazine is widely used in the agriculture as an herbicide. Due to its high mobility, Atrazine leaks into the groundwaters, surface waters, and drinking water wells. Many physical and chemical methods have been suggested for removing Atrazine from aquatic environments. However, these methods are very costly, have many performance problems, produce a lot of toxic intermediates which are very har...
متن کاملOxygen Transfer in a Biological Aerated Filter
The City of San Diego (City) operates the Point Loma Wastewater Treatment Plant (PLWTP) which can normally treat up to 240 million gallons per day (MGD) of chemically enhanced primary treated (CEPT) effluent for ocean disposal. The City wanted to understand the performance capabilities of Biological Aerated Filters (BAFs) in treating CEPT effluent to secondary standards. To this end, the City c...
متن کاملA Review on the Design Criteria of Biological Aerated Filter for Cod, Ammonia and Manganese Removal in Drinking Water Treatment
The design criteria of biological aerated filter (BAF) were reviewed in order to design an effective process for organic and inorganic contaminants removal in drinking water, particularly, COD and ammonia removal. The review was mainly focused on the height and diameter dimensions for the BAF process system as well as the removal efficiency and the type of media used. In addition, the review al...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Biological Nitrogen Removal in a Multiple Anoxic and Aerobic Biological Nutrient Removal Process
Two sequencing batch reactors, one with the conventional anoxic and aerobic (AO) process and the other with the multiple AO process, were operated to examine characteristics of biological nitrogen removal, especially of the multiple AO process. The long-term operation showed that the total nitrogen removal percentage of the multiple AO reactor was 38.7% higher than that of the AO reactor. In th...
متن کاملdegradation of amoxicillin by bacterial consortium in a submerged biological aerated filter: volumetric removal modeling
background: amoxicillin is widely used as an antibiotic in the modern medicine. due to its chemical structure, polarity, activity level, antibiotic specifications, and environmental sustainability, amoxicillin leaks into the groundwater, surface waters, and drinking water wells. many physical and chemical methods have been suggested for removing amoxicillin from aquatic environments. however, t...
