Treatment of synthetic kraft evaporator condensate using thermophilic and mesophilic membrane aerated biofilm reactors
A comparative study on the treatment of synthetic kraft evaporator condensate was conducted using thermophilic (55°C) and mesophilic (30°C) membrane aerated biofilm reactors (MABRs) and sequencing batch reactors (SBRs) for 8 months. Under tested conditions, a chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency of 80–95% was achieved with both thermophilic and mesophilic MABRs and SBRs. The COD ...

The Resilience of Biofilms
These elegant formations of microbes enable robust wastewater treatment Some of Fluence’s signature wastewater treatment solutions are based on membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) technology, which was first introduced in the 1990s. MABR harnesses biofilm, an extremely resilient mode of life that has been found in sediment dating back 3.4 billion years. These formations of microbial ...

Fluence’s MABR at the Codiga Resource Recovery Center
A Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor (MABR) manufactured by Fluence Corporation (Fluence) was installed at Stanford’s Codiga Resource Recovery Center (CR2C) in January 2018. The system was tested with domestic wastewater diverted from Stanford’s sanitary sewer. Treatment performance was evaluated according to two benchmarks: California Title 22 standards for non-potable water reuse (T22) and a ...

What Is Denitrification?
In Fluence’s membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) technology, simultaneous biological nitrification-denitrification takes place within a single tank due to a bacterial biofilm that forms on its aeration membrane. Nitrates, which are vital to the growth of plants, must be removed during the wastewater treatment process Nitrogen, the most prevalent element in Earth’s atmosphere at ...

What Is Denitrification?
Nitrates, which are vital to the growth of plants, must be removed during the wastewater treatment process Nitrogen, the most prevalent element in Earth’s atmosphere at 78%, can be found in living organisms and decaying matter like humus in soil, as well as in the air we are breathing right now. Nitrogen is considered a vital limiting nutrient, which means that in nature, it typically is ...

Water Treatment Membranes and Their Processes
Filtering out contaminants, even at the nano scale, membranes are a mainstay of water and wastewater treatments In water treatment, membranes are barriers that allow water to pass through but stop unwanted substances from passing through with it. Working much like the cell walls in our bodies, technical membranes filter out salts, impurities, viruses, and other particles from water. A membrane ...

Horizontal Levee Reimagines Familiar Structure
Project on San Francisco Bay protects from storm surge and purifies water On the eastern shores of San Francisco Bay, the Oro Loma Water District is reimagining the concept of the traditional levee into the “horizontal levee,” an idea proposed by consulting ecologist Peter Bay and Jeremy Lowe of Environmental Science Associates. The horizontal levee starts with an already existing ...

An Aquifer Recharge Success Story
Idahoans work together to replenish the Eastern Snake River Plain Aquifer With so much bad news about depletion of global freshwater resources, often about crises that could have been prevented with forethought and preparation, it’s always good to hear a success story. And Idahoans can be proud of the managed aquifer recharge (MAR) program that contributed to the success. The Eastern ...

Groundwater Level and Surface Water Depletion Linked
Study’s computer model could be influential in future water management A new study looking at a century of groundwater declines in the continental United States has concluded that overpumping water from aquifers is responsible for up to half of the river flow declines that now threaten economies and public health in many regions. The study, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, said ...

Decentralized water treatment and local water shortages
MIT researchers conclude that alternative approaches to water planning can alleviate urban water supply issues quickly and inexpensively Urban areas around the world are expanding rapidly as the global population increases and people are moving to cities at a fast pace. This puts a strain on current infrastructure, including water treatment plants. Add global warming and increasing drought ...

The Invisible Water Pollution Crisis
Around the world, water contaminants are damaging human health and local economies The World Bank, in its new report “Quality Unknown: The Invisible Water Crisis,” asserts that water contamination is already a problem. But it is one that will only worsen in the future with global warming. The report foregrounds the fact that not all dangerously contaminated bodies of water will ...

Report: Energy and utility companies can help preserve water resources
By investing in new technologies and infrastructure, together they can help reduce problems associated with water shortages While both humans and their commercial operations rely on fresh water more than ever, sources of clean water are becoming scarcer. Climate change, droughts, increasing agricultural needs, water pollution, and global economic and population growth all contribute to frequent ...
