How Much Energy Can Anaerobic Digestion Produce?
The total energy produced can vary widely depending on factors including what is being treated Anaerobic digestion is a waste treatment process that breaks down organic matter with bacteria that thrive in the absence of oxygen. Feedstocks can include manure, sewage biosolids, and food wastes. Among anaerobic digestion’s advantages is its ability to treat high-load streams while producing ...

Overheating Damage at Activated Carbon Filter
At one of the DMT’s plants recently a safety incident occurred. An Activated Carbon Filter overheated due to an incorrect mode of operation, causing damage to the installation. This led to a significant financial loss including business interruption impacts. To raise awareness for correct operation of Activated Carbon Filters, DMT publishes this S.H.E. bulletin to prevent this from ...

Veolia Environmental Services Construction and Demolition Waste Landfill, Quebec City, Canada – Case Study
Summary Biorem's biogas desulphurization product is providing very high removal efficiencies at a landfill site in Quebec. Despite the highly variable concentrations and low winter temperatures, the system has achieved an average removal efficiency of 97%, and has maintained outlet nydrogen sulphide concentration below target consistently. As a result, the customer has realized a significant ...

Up Flow - Anaerobic Sludge Blanket Reactor (UASB)
About Anaerobic Wastewater Treatment Anaerobic Wastewater Treatment is a wastewater treatment system using biology that without using of air or oxygen. It aimed to remove organic pollution in wastewater, slurries and sludge. Anaerobic microorganisms convert organic pollutants into a “biogas” which contains methane and carbon dioxide.1 About Up flow-Anaerobic Sludge Blanket Reactor ...

Wastewater Is An Asset | It contains nutrients, energy and precious metals
People think as little as possible about the wastewater that is produced daily from their showers, bathtubs, sinks, dishwashers and toilets. But with the right techniques, it can become a valuable resource. On average, every Americans uses about 60 gallons of water per day for purposes that include flushing toilets, showering and doing laundry. This figure can easily double if outdoor uses, ...

Watertight Tank Technology
STOPPING LEAKY & CORRODED CONCRETE TANKS Despite 100 years of research and the release of various design standards, storage tank failures still exist. Codes committees, particularly ACI350, work hard to address this to the best of their ability but consultants and contractors often find the devil is in the detail. Several contributing factors can lead to a leaky tank from improper design, ...

How Waste-to-Energy Can Restore Our Earth
Treating wastewater with anaerobic digestion converts organic pollution into a valuable asset Since 1970, Earth Day has been held each year on April 22 to demonstrate support for environmental protection. This year’s theme is Restore Our Earth, which focuses on “natural processes, emerging green technologies, and innovative thinking that can restore the world’s ...

The EFC Advantage in Confectionary Wastewater Treatment
Fluence’s EFC reactor boosts anaerobic digestion to efficiently deal with high flows and high organic load. Industrial operations are often charged high rates for municipal infrastructure to treat their high-strength wastewater. Pretreating effluent in-house with anaerobic digestion systems can reduce surcharges and provide an excellent ROI. For example, the confectionary industry produces ...

Sulfide removal from industrial wastewaters by lithotrophic denitrification using nitrate as an electron acceptor
Sulfide is present in wastewaters as well as in biogas and can be removed by several physicochemical and biotechnological processes. Nitrate is a potential electron acceptor, readily available in most wastewater treatment plants and it can replace oxygen under anoxic conditions. A lab-scale reactor was operated for treatment of sulfide containing wastewater with nitrate as an electron acceptor ...

From Wastewater Treatment to Resource Recovery
Recovering energy and valuable compounds from sewage adds value to the water-purification process Wastewater was once something to dispose of, but today it’s considered too valuable to waste. It is, in fact, rich in energy, nutrients, and other promising materials, not to mention the increasingly valuable resource of the water itself. As leaders in the sector realize the potential of ...

Addressing food waste through anaerobic digestion
Food waste continues to be a problem worldwide, even with more and more attention being paid to reducing spoilage and to salvaging edible foods for redistribution or reuse. One approach to the problem is diverting inedible organic matter from landfills and treating it with anaerobic digestion, which has the side effect of capturing energy. The amount of food wasted worldwide was 2.3 billion ...

Screw Press Machine in Biogas Slurry Dewatering
Biogas production is a sustainable and environmentally friendly way to generate energy from organic waste. However, the process generates a byproduct called biogas slurry, which is rich in nutrients but also high in water content. Managing this slurry efficiently is crucial for reducing transportation costs, controlling odors, and maximizing the benefits of nutrient-rich byproducts. In this ...

Adding Value With Anaerobic Digestion
Adding waste-to-energy technology to wastewater treatment produces energy that can be used to power operations Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a biological process that uses microbes to biodegrade organic matter (feedstock) in the absence of oxygen. It provides a host of benefits in the treatment of challenging wastewater streams while offering the opportunity to produce value in the process. ...
