Behaviour of cyanobacterial bloom material following coagulation and/or sedimentation

The global increase in detection of cyanobacteria and their metabolites has prompted greater emphasis in optimizing water treatment options for their effective removal. In particular, conventional coagulation and clarification processes have been shown to be effective in removing whole cyanobacterial cells, and consequently a majority of the metabolites. However, the resultant ...

Monroe Scrubbing System provides halide recovery at a major glass products plant

Challenge A glass manufacturing plant was having trouble cleaning the emitted gases, particulate, and odors that resulted from its manufacturing process. Metallic Halides such as SnCl4 and TiCl4 were being applied to hot glass to impart special properties. The halide and oxide emissions were hazardous, extremely pungent, irritating in odor, and very difficult to scrub. Solution Monroe designed ...

Evaluation of activated starch as an alternative to polyacrylamide polymers for drinking water flocculation

Polyacrylamide polymers (PAM) are one of the most common water treatment chemicals used in clarification processes. Concerns have been raised with regards to the aquatic and human toxicity of acrylamide monomer. Greener polymers, produced using potato starch, were investigated at lab-scale as a potential non-toxic alternative to the use of PAM within a ballasted flocculation process ...

Influence of Source Characteristics, Chemicals and Flocculation on Non-Settleable Solids and Chemically Enhanced Primary Treatment

The overall objective of this research was to investigate various methods and parameters to increase the efficiency of Chemically Enhanced Primary Treatment (CEPT). To understand the methods of improving efficiency, non-setteable solids (NSS) was selected as the controlling parameter that influenced efficiency of CEPT. Parameters and source characteristics that increase NSS results in poorer CEPT ...

Full Scale Magnetic Ion Exchange Process Tested by Historically High DOC Levels

The Aireys Inlet Water Treatment Plant (WTP) is located about 150 kilometres from Melbourne on the Great Ocean Road. The WTP utilises a conventional upflow sludge blanket clarification process. The raw water source for this plant is characterised by high DOC levels. Despite operating in an enhanced coagulation mode sufficient DOC removal was not able to be achieved. This resulted in high ...

Use of Barley Straw for Algal Reduction in Sewage Lagoons – Operational Considerations

Pecos began use of barley straw as a clarification aid in June 2005 to determine its effectiveness as part of a phased treatment plant replacement. Phase I includes construction of a new UV system that will disinfect effluent received directly from Lagoon No. 3. However, this phasing would place a heavy TSS loading on the UV system. As barley decomposes, a chemical is emitted that inhibits algal ...

A simple empirical model for the clarification-thickening process in wastewater treatment plants

In wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), activated sludge is thickened in secondary settling tanks and recycled into the biological reactor to maintain enough biomass for wastewater treatment. Accurately estimating the activated sludge concentration in the lower portion of the secondary clarifiers is of great importance for evaluating and controlling the sludge recycled ratio, ensuring smooth ...

Optimization of Fenton's reagent coupled to Dissolved Air Flotation to remove cyanobacterial odorous metabolites and suspended solids from raw surface water

Ferrous salts are commonly used as coagulants in Water Treatment Plants (WTPs). When these salts are combined with hydrogen peroxide in acidic conditions – besides coagulation – an additional Advanced Oxidation Process (Fenton's reagent) can take place. Using a response surface methodology, this paper presents the optimization of a novel treatment system constituted by Fenton's reagent (FE) and ...
