چکیده

background: the measurement data regarding the influent and effluent of wastewater treatment plant (wwtp) provides a general overview, demonstrating an overall performance of wwtp. nevertheless, these data do not provide the suitable operational information for the optimization of individual units involved in a wwtp. a full-scale evolution of wwtp was carried out in this study via a reconciled data. methods: a full-scale evolution of acrylonitrile, butadiene and styrene (abs) resin manufacturing wwtp was carried out. data reconciliation technique was employed to fulfil the mass conservation law and also enhance the accuracy of the flow measurements. daily average values from long-term measurements by the wwtp library along with the results of four sampling runs, were utilized for data reconciliation with further performance evaluation and characterization of wwtp. results: the full-scale evaluation, based on balanced data showed that removal efficiency based on chemical oxygen demand (cod) and biochemical oxygen demand (bod5) through the wwtp were 80% and 90%, respectively, from which only 28% of cod and 20% of bod5 removal had occurred in biological reactor. in addition, the removal efficiency of styrene and acrylonitrile, throughout the plant, was approximately 90%. estimation results employing toxchem model showed that 43% of acrylonitrile and 85% of styrene were emitted into the atmosphere above water surfaces. conclusion: it can be concluded that the volatilization of styrene and acrylonitrile is the main mechanism for their removal along with corresponded cod elimination from the wwtp.

Performance Evaluation of the Extended Aeration Activated Sludge System in the Removal of Physicochemical and Microbial Parameters of Municipal Wastewater: A Case Study of Nowshahr Wastewater Treatment Plant

Introduction: Extended aeration activated sludge system has a lower sludge production than other activated sludge processes. Due to its high hydraulic retention time (HRT), the tolerance of this process is higher than the shocks caused by increased organic loading rate. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of the aeration system in removing physicochemical and mi...

Performance and microbial characteristics of biomass in a full-scale aerobic granular sludge wastewater treatment plant

By modification of the operational conditions of batch reactors, a municipal wastewater treatment plant was upgraded from activated sludge to aerobic granular sludge (AGS) technology. After upgrading, the volume of the biological reactors was reduced by 30%, but the quality of the effluent substantially improved. The concentration of biomass in the reactors increased twofold; the average biomas...
