Removing dams and levees to restore hydrologic connectivity and enhance ecosystem services such as nutrient removal has been an increasingly common management practice. In the present study, the authors assessed geochemical and biological changes following engineered levee breaches that reconnected eutrophic Upper Klamath Lake and Agency Lake, Oregon, USA, to an adjacent, historic wetland that ...
Industrial grade ammonium ion selective membrane and application engineered solid state conductive polymer reference can withstand the rigors of industrial process lines Ammonium calibration system has been optimized to yield reproducible results in a variety of wastewater systems Ammonia gas resistant pH sensor delivers the accuracy needed for total ammonia computation via a PLC or DCS from ...
Received for publication May 1, 2008. Strong acid solutions have been widely used in acid traps to determine concentrations of ammonia in ambient air or exhaust air stream. A literature survey indicates the method has a long history and a wide variation in use. Through a series of studies, this paper examines several factors including volume of the acid, depth of the acid, and airflow rate; that ...
For many years the water industry has relied on traditional sampling techniques to monitor water quality in a wide range of environments. Traditional tests such as BOD, PH, Dissolved Oxygen and Ammonia have formed the bedrock of monitoring parameters. There is however other ways to establish water quality and UV fluorescence offers an up to date solution for the investigation of Organic ...
Removal of CBOD5 and nitrogen from septic tank effluent was evaluated in four horizontal subsurface flow (HSSF) wetlands. An intermittently loaded cell was compared to a continuously loaded control cell, with both treatments receiving the same weekly volume. The intermittent cell was rapidly drained and “rested” for 24-hr, then refilled in steps, twice weekly. Two media with different particle ...
Potentially toxic levels of three naturally occurring chemical stressors (dissolved sulfide, ammonia, and iron) can occur in freshwater sediments, although their roles in shaping ecosystem structure (i.e., plant and animal communities) and function (e.g., biologically mediated elemental cycles) have received little study. This critical review discusses the prevalence and ecological effects of ...
In this work the autotrophic nitrogen removal was carried out at moderately low temperatures using two configurations: a) two-units one comprising a SHARON reactor coupled to an Anammox SBR and b) single-unit one consisting of a granular SBR performing the CANON process. At 20°C the two-units system was limited by the Anammox step and its nitrogen removal capacity was around ten times lower than ...
Real-time continuous online measurement system for ammonia Low Initial Procurement Cost compared to competing technologies and offerings No need for chemical feed and rebuilding of sensors Lower Cost of Ownership due to very long sensor lifetime, low maintenance & cleaning requirements for inline, immersion & submersion ion selective sensors Intuitive and easy to use TT-MA analyser ...
Aerobic digestion and nitrification-denitrification work together thanks to an innovative membrane system One of the most talked-about new wastewater treatment technologies is the membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR), which is revolutionizing WWT. The discussion, however, has mainly focused on issues like MABR technology’s low operating expenses, high energy efficiency, low ...
A sediment model has been developed to simulate the Sediment Oxygen Demand (SOD) and sediment nutrient fluxes after a sudden input of Particulate Organic Matter (POM). Compared with previous sediment models, the main advances are the use of a continuous function to represent the kinetics of POM diagenesis and inclusion of the biomass content in POM diagenesis. Laboratory experiments were also ...
Aquatic organisms often suffer episodic stress from cyanobacterial bloom‐derived concomitant and sometimes interactive stressors, and may recover when stressors terminate. To assess whether exposed Daphnia can quickly recover from combined toxicity of bloom‐derived stressors, we exposed Daphnia similoides to mixtures of ammonia (0, 0.37, and 0.58 mg L−1) and dissolved microcystin‐LR (0, 10, ...
This study investigated the use of biological powdered activated carbon (PAC) for the removal of natural organic matter (NOM) and ammonia from drinking water. The impact of solids retention time (SRT), hydraulic retention time (HRT), PAC diameter and PAC concentration on the process efficiency was evaluated. Five bioreactors were filled with a slurry using two PAC concentrations (5 or 25 g l−1), ...
In highly alkaline aqueous solutions (pH >10), the main form of dissolved ammoniacal nitrogen is the unionized free ammonia. Free ammonia, being a gaseous molecule, is easily stripped out from the solution. Increasing wastewater pH is frequently used to force ammonia removal. Herein, the effect of the variation of some physico-chemical characteristics of liquid cattle wastewater on ammonia ...

Abstract: Ammonia-based aeration control (ABAC) is a cascade control concept for controlling total ammonia nitrogen (NHx-N) in the activated sludge process. Its main goals are to tailor the aeration intensity to the NHx-N loading and to maintain consistent nitrification, which meets effluent limits but minimizes energy consumption and improves nutrient removal. One limitation to ABAC is that the ...
The impact of National Fertilizer Company of Nigeria outfall effluent on the physicochemistry and bacteriology of Okrika creek was investigated during the sampling period from May to December, 1998. The National Fertilizer Company of Nigeria outfall effluent, the Okrika creek water and the Ikpukulubie creek (control) water samples were collected. The physico-chemical parameters analyzed for all ...
The aim of this work is to compare the capability of two recently proposed two-pathway models for predicting nitrous oxide (N2O) production by ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) for varying ranges of dissolved oxygen (DO) and nitrite. The first model includes the electron carriers whereas the second model is based on direct coupling of electron donors and acceptors. Simulations are confronted ...
