Aeration is one of the most common stages in the liquid waste clarification process. Most aeration tanks are equipped with aeration devices that inject oxygen to enhance the biodegradation of the liquid waste. In this work an aeration process is simulated, where the air is injected from the bottom...

Samples were taken from Metamorphosis/Attica combined treatment plant for municipal wastewater and septage, which treats about 12000 m3 d-1 of municipal wastewater and 8000 m3 d-1 of septage, and analyzed for solids, COD, ammonia, nitrate, orthophosphate, polyphosphate and total phosphorus. Ammonia...

Nitrogen in the Ammonia form can have deleterious effects in water resources. Ion Exchange by zeolite and biological Nitrification processes are two proposed methods for removing Nitrogen compounds from wastewater and effluents. The main objective of this research was to investigate the efficiency...

Μany applications in water quality management have a common key water quality parameter, dissolved oxygen, resulting to the critical role of aeration. On the other hand, in municipal and industrial wastewater, especially where aeration is applied, the presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)...

The methylation of mercury has been investigated and documented mainly in sediments, fish and microorganisms, while limited number of relevant studies is available for wastewater. The procedure of mercury methylation can occur via biological pathway (by microorganisms) and via chemical or...

Successful start-up of a full-scale wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) is a key issue for the succeeding operation of WWTP on the one hand and the nutritious phosphorus removal is of great concern on the other. After the construction of Mudanjiang WWTP with a flow rate of 100,000 m3 d-1 in...
