Treatability of resin effluents by electrochemical oxidation using batch recirculation reactor

Mediated electrochemical oxidation process for destruction of TOC in a batch recirculation reactor

Electro oxidation processes are developed throughout the world for ambient temperature destruction of organic wastes. Several of these processes are based on Mediated Electrochemical Oxidation (MEO). This article presents the experimental results of electro chemical study based on MEO process conducted for synthetic organic ion exchange resin materials. Investigation was carried out using the t...

In Search of Anaerobic Ammonia Oxidation by Planctomycete-like Bacteria in Sequencing Batch Reactor Stressed by

Planctomycetes belong to an unique anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) member of the bacteria. They have a special organelle, anammoxosome, for anaerobic ammonia oxidation. Since they grow extremely slowly, there have been some difficulties identifying them. It is only recently that people have discovered planctomycetes might play a role in the process of converting ammonia and nitrite direct...

Fluoride removal by using a batch electrocoagulation reactor

Sequencing Batch Reactor Systems

The sequencing batch reactor (SBR) process is a sequential suspended growth (activated sludge) process in which all major steps occur in the same tank in sequential order (figure 1). There are two major classifications of SBRs: the intermittent flow (IF) or “true batch reactor,” which employs all the steps in figure 1, and the continuous flow (CF) system, which does not follow these steps. Both...

Semi-batch Chemical Reactor

Control of complex nonlinear systems brings challenges in the controller design. One of methods how to cope with this challenge is the usage of advanced optimization methods. This work presents application of self-organizing migrating algorithm (SOMA) in control of the semi-batch reactor. The reactor is used in chromium recycling process in leather industry. Because of the complexity of this se...
