Introduction: Wastewater contains a large number of pathogenic and non-pathogenic microorganisms that can become bioaerosols during the treatment processes in different units of the treatment plant, and pose a risk to workers and nearby residents. In this study, the release of bioaerosols from a wastewater treatment plant of Morche Khort Industrial Town was investigated. Materials and Methods:...

A suspension of wastewater and treatment organisms in an aerated tank is known as the activated sludge process. The activated sludge process can be used for onsite wastewater treatment, generally requiring the addition of an air pump to deliver oxygen to the system and provide mixing energy. Suspended growth treatment systems can be secondary only (require supplemental primary treatment) or com...

AIMS The objective of the present study was to investigate the influence of aeration rate and agitation intensity on the production of mycelial biomass and exopolysaccharide (EPS) in Paecilomyces sinclairii. METHODS AND RESULTS The P. sinclairii was cultivated under various aeration and agitation conditions in a 5 l stirred-tank bioreactor. The highest mycelial biomass (30.5 g l-1) and EPS pr...

The term 'membrane bioreactor' expresses a combination of activated sludge and membrane separation processes. The need to processes like sedimentation and disinfection used in common methods is eliminated through MBR systems in a way that membranes are placed into or out of an aeration tank and the vacuumed wastewater created by the suction pump is pulled up from inside the membranes and leaves...

In this report we describe the results of a study conducted to determine the rates of bacterial aerosol emission from the surfaces of the aeration tanks of the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago John E. Egan Water Reclamation Plant. This study was accomplished by conducting test runs in which Andersen six-stage viable samplers were used to collect bacterial aerosol sampl...

Purpose. The main purpose of the article is to develop a 3D CFD model for modeling process biological wastewater treatment in an aeration tank. Methodology. For mathematical reactor, taking into account flow hydrodynamics, geometric shape tank, convective-diffusion transfer substrate and activated sludge, was built. based on three-dimensional equation motion ideal liquid mass conservation subst...
