In recent years, accidents of urban large scale sewage treatment plant at home and abroad have took a big loss to countries and individuals. Based on field research and scientific analysis of one large sewage treatment plant this paper use the safety check list to evaluate its safety and get that the main risk factors which should be focused on are poisoning and suffocation, electrical injuries...

background: reprocessing of sewage sludge to agricultural land is preferred to disposal through landfill or incineration due to its potentially beneficial effects on soil fertility from organic matter and plant nutrients, such as n and p, present in the sludge. therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the impact of sewage sludge and chemical fertilizers on pb and cd accumulation in fe...

Since potassium is essential for plant nutrition, should this element be deficient in sewage sludge used for plant fertilization supplementary mineral potassium fertilization is necessary. The aim of the present study has been to evaluate the effect of fertilization with organic materials on maize yield, its potassium concentrations and the content of bioavailable forms of potassium in soil of ...

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of different waters; tap water (control), sewage effluent (100 % & 50 %), sewage effluent with Scenedesmus quadricauda and sewage effluent with Nostoc sp. on plant growth, leaf chlorophyll and Assessment of hygienic (fungi) of wheat and alfalfa plants. The obtained results showed that plant height, herb weight (fresh and dry), total chlorophy...

The sewage treatment plant was monitored to determine the efficiency of technologies employed to reduce microbiological threats. Every four weeks, for a year, sewage was sampled to investigate the effects of post-mechanical and post-biological treatment. Changes in Escherichia coli, D-group streptococci and Salmonella spp. number were analyzed. The reduction of the bacteria in sewage treated me...

Researchers from the HES-SO Valais/Wallis have demonstrated how to extract phosphate from sewage sludge on the laboratory scale using renewable energy sources from a microbial fuel cell. The mobilized phosphate barely contains heavy metals and can be used to produce fertilizer of marketable quality. The necessary energy comes from a sewage treatment plant and causes no additional costs.

Introduction Anaerobic treatment processes for biodegradation of hazardous materials have increasingly been gaining attention in environmental applications. Microbial processes utilizing sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB), in particular, have found potential applications in variety of treatment processes such as flue gas desulfurization [1,2], gypsum reclamation [3], sulfur recovery from sulfitdsu...
