Preliminary

This service was made according to customer order points and indications from Hydrolab Microbiológica (Surcis collaborator)

The client wanted Surcis to carry out a study about COD fractioning and nitrification.
For this study the client has provided to Surcis the following:

  • Process type: Activated sludge - Extended aeration
  • 2 wastewater samples: the first one is a punctual sample from an irregular wastewater influent (sample 1) and the second one is coming from one-day composite wastewater from the normal influent to the activated sludge process (sample 2)
  • Activated sludge from the biological reactor.
  • Some wastewater data in the process.

Date of the study: weeks 17 (April) and 18 (May) - 2012

Note: As usual, in the complete report presented to the client, Hydrolab Microniológica could also include a part of the microscopic bio-indication.

    Microscopic versus qPCR (quantitative polymerase chain reaction) analyses were compared for the detection of Didymosphenia geminata in biofilms and water filtrates from seven Gaspésie rivers (Canada). For the qPCR approach, two DNA extraction kits (QIAamp DNA Micro Kit, Qiagen and PowerSoil DNA Isolation Kit, Mo Bio Laboratories) and two pairs of primers were considered. The pair of primers D602F/D753Rext did not amplify D. geminata DNA whereas the pair of primers D602F/D753R was specific for D. geminata. Presence-...

    For the efficient removal of some anionic dyes, a novel adsorbent was developed. The adsorbent was prepared by coating a synthetic polymer on magnetite nanosphere surface as a magnetic carrier. The synthesized nano-adsorbent was fully characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), vibrating sample magnetometer, X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope, and transmission electronic microscopy measurements. The synthesized nano-adsorbent showed high adsorption capacity towards removal...

    A composite coagulant polyferric magnesium silicate (PFMSi) was synthesized by co-polymerization. The structure and morphology of PFMSi were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectra and scanning electron microscope microphotographs; meanwhile, the coagulation efficiency was evaluated under different ratios of Fe/Si, Mg/Si, basicity ([OH]/[M] ratio), and dosage. The results suggested that the PFMSi coagulant shows an amorphous phase structure, and new chemical compounds had been...

    The utilization of magnesium hydroxide was successfully carried out to remove reactive orange by coagulation-adsorption from aqueous solution. The coagulation-adsorption mechanisms and magnesium hydroxide-reactive orange floc property were analyzed through zeta potential, scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Flocculation Index was then discussed with controlled experiments using intelligent Particle Dispersion Analyzer (iPDA) and optimum rapid...

  • Kinetics and mechanism of desilication reaction in sodium chromate solution using sodium aluminate

    It is essential to control silica levels in sodium chromate solution during the process of electrolytic synthesis of sodium dichromate. On the basis of previous work, the desilication conditions were systematically studied and pH was found to have the most serious impact on the desilication process. The desilication rate under optimal conditions obtained from the orthogonal experiment results was up to 99.3%. Kinetic experiments showed that the desilication reaction was first-order in SiO2 concentration and the...
