Waste water treatment is a large, complex and nonlinear system due to being influenced by big speed, pollution as well as the uncertainty related to the composition of the input waste stream. In reality, these systems are always required to operate continuously and stably so that the natural environment is able to absorb the treated waste water safely. Therefore, the size as well as operation q...

In India, Pulp & paper industries have been large uses of portable water and consequently large generator of waste water. Anaerobic treatment of paper processing waste water has a distinct advantage of recovery of inherent energy in the form of methane gas with much less sludge production. A hybrid reactor that capitalizes on the positive features of anaerobic filter(AF) and up-flow anaerobic s...

I read with great interest Schmidt’s article on hog feces that was widely spread by Hurricane Floyd flooding in North Carolina (1).
