VFA are essential intermediate compounds produced during the initial phases of anaerobic digestion and their monitoring is…
Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) Upgrading for domestic wastewater treatment
Activated sludge reactors are aerobic suspended-growth type processes. Large amounts of injected oxygen allow maintaining aerobic conditions and optimally mixing the active biomass with the wastewater to be treated. Activated sludge systems are highly efficient for organic matter and nutrient removal, though pathogen removal is low. In the view of…
Aerated Engineered Wetland (AEW) for domestic wastewater treatment
Aerated Engineered Wetlands (AEWs) are an advanced type of Constructed Wetlands (CWs) which allow a more efficient removal of contaminants from wastewater, due to the higher availability of oxygen.
