The article is devoted to the study of model cost indicators wastewater treatment facilities as one factors for ensuring sustainable development. It noted that greatest contribution in terms formation provided by stage biological treatment. As part study, a techno-economic simulation was conducted compare two technological schemes: conventional activated sludge scheme aeration reactor and secon...

Pilot scale experiments with forced aeration were conducted to estimate effects of aeration rates on the performance of composting penicillin mycelial dreg using sewage sludge as inoculation. Three aeration rates of 0.15, 0.50 and 0.90L/(min·kg) organic matter (OM) were examined. The principal physicochemical parameters were monitored during the 32day composting period. Results showed that the ...

Thirty-five years ago, B.F. Skinner (1976) lamented a decreasing trend in the prevalence of cumulative records in the Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior ( JEAB). The editorial began with the two memorable lines, ‘‘Evidently we have not long to wait for an issue of JEAB without a single cumulative record! I shall not miss the records so much as the kinds of experiments that could s...

Triboelektrostatická separácia minerálnej substancie zo slovenského uhlia V článku sú diskutované niektoré technické aspekty triboelektrostatickej separácie a výsledky aplikácie tohto postupu pri úprave troch typov uhlia, konkrétne energetického uhlia z Cígľa, Handlovej a Novák. Bolo zistené, že účinnosť separácie veľmi úzko závisí na druhu separovan uhlia. Prvé výsledky preukázali súvislosť me...

Experimental assessment of process kinetic is essential for modelling and can serve as a useful tool to improve performance. In this study, evaluation petroleum refinery wastewater (PRWW) biodegradation in an activated sludge (ASP) was carried out 25 L ASP reactor which operated within the conventional aeration mode 2-10 hours, hydraulic retention time (HRT), effluents from secondary sedimentat...

A laboratory-scale membrane bioreactor (MBR) was fed with synthetic wastewater to investigate the possibility of simultaneous removal of organic, nitrogen and phosphorus by intermittent aeration. The MBR consists of two compartments using a microfiltration membrane with 0.2 μm pore size and a surface area of 0.35 m2. Hydraulic retention time was set at 24 hours and solid retention time 25 days....

Current weather indifferent fields of science and engineering research purposes and different applications are studied. One of the applications of climate studies, the study of the flow over the weir dam and lower exhaust tunnel is aimed at preventing the risk of cavitations. Aeration is known as one of the most economical and practical way to deal with cavitations on rapid spill ways. In the s...

Problem statement: E-coating process is widely used to provide a protective coating layer on metal parts in the automotive and metal finishing industry. The wastewater from the coating process contains organic compounds that are used in the cleaning, pretreatment and coating steps. Organic pollutants can be removed biologically. In the aerobic biological treatment, water aeration accounts for a...

In situ aeration by means of the Airflow technology was proposed for landfill conditioning before landfill mining in the framework of a reclamation project in Northern Italy. A 1-year aeration project was carried out on part of the landfill with the objective of evaluating the effectiveness of the Airflow technology for landfill aerobization, the evolution of waste biological stability during a...
