An activated sludge aeration tank (W × L × H = 40 × 40 × 300 cm) with a set of 2 mm orifice air spargers was utilized to treat gas-borne volatile organic compounds (VOCs, toluene, p-xylene, and dichloromethane) in air streams. Effects of liquid depth, aeration intensity (G/A), overall mass transfer coefficient of oxygen in clean water (KLaO2), dimensionless Henry’s law coefficient of the tested...

This study is carried out within the framework of requirements ensuring reliable operation Central Wastewater Treatment Plant Ulaanbaatar to increase treatment performance and mitigate adverse impacts current poor on nature ecology. The dynamic influent was studied in order find best-suited solution as a means improvement for WWTP. As an immediate fast-to-build solution, equalization tank pre-a...

Low efficiency of conventional aeration techniques and the excessive production and disposal of sludge are great concerns in biological wastewater treatment systems. The present study aimed to evaluate the active sludge method using batch reactors under continuous operation to determine the efficiency of aeration and sludge production through microbubble and nanobubble aeration. The results ind...

Aeration using automatic controllers was compared with manually‐activated aeration (manual aeration) in bins of farm‐stored rice in Nome, Texas, from 17 September 2002 through the end of the year. Manual aeration was defined as the farm owner manually activating the fans in mid‐October, while automatic aeration employed activation temperatures of 23.9 C, 15.6 C, and 7.2 C for three discreet coo...

Flotation wastewater treatment is widely used in various systems. The choice of aeration system plays a considerable role the development highly efficient flotation tanks. objective this work to point out factors that influence flotator type, and offer recommendations based on literature review data analysis. In paper, types systems tanks are considered: mechanical, pneumatic, pneumohydraulic e...

Ethanol fermentation requires oxygen to maintain high biomass and cell viability, especially under very-high-gravity (VHG) condition. In this work, fermentation redox potential (ORP) was applied to drive the aeration process at low dissolved oxygen (DO) levels, which is infeasible to be regulated by a DO sensor. The performance and characteristics of flocculating yeast grown under 300 and 260 g...

The aims of these experiments were treating tapioca processing waste water to produce polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) and removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD). The experiments were conducted in a sequencing batch reactor with a volume of 6 L. The entire experimental condition was anaerobic-aerobic-anaerobic. Experiment 1, 2 and 3 had the first 2 h for feeding time while Experiment 4 had 3 h. Th...

Štúdium viazania stopových prvkov v sedimente vodnej nádrže Ružín Pre účely posúdenia možnosti využitia fyzikálnych a fyzikálno-chemických metód separácie, vybraná vzorka sedimentu z Ružína bola podrobené 5-stupňovej procedúre sekvenčnej extrakcie (SE) podľa Tessiera (Tessier et al., 1979) a Horowitza (Horowitz, 1991). Vo výluhoch bolo stanovované zastúpenie konštitučných (Fe, Mn, Ca a Mg) ako ...
