Respirometry solutions for pharmaceutical wastewater industry
A pharmaceutical company was interested in knowing whether a specific component, MCB, inhibited the biodegradation of other wastewater constituents. A series of respirometer tests was set up using identical mixtures of wastewater and return activated sludge (RAS) plus varying amounts of MCB. The OUR fingerprint of this wastewater includes a first peak of about 500 mg/L-hr within the first hour of contact that represents the oxidation of highly-biodegradable organic constituents. A second group of readily ...

Application of respirometry system for biodegradation testing
The pattern of oxygen uptake– relative to that for a control substrate – gives a measure of the rate and extent of biodegradation of the organic constituents of the test sample. In this case, samples #2 and #3 showed a much lower biodegradation rate than the ...

Oxygen monitoring from aerobic and anaerobic for toxicity test
Toxicity of pure chemicals is assessed using respirometers by adding increasing concentrations to an active culture. The concentration at which oxygen uptake or gas production begins to decrease is known as the “threshold toxicant ...

Respirometry solutions for testing the stability of compost sector
METHOD: A full-scale compost plant was faced with the need to determine the stability of the compost in the active bays during the compost operation. Samples were collected at 24-ft intervals (2 days of operation) through the length of one bay of the in-vessel compost system and placed into sealed glass reactors. Air was recirculated through the compost material using a peristaltic pump. A caustic scrubber was placed in the recirculation line to remove carbon dioxide (Figure 1). The reaction vessels were connected ...

Respirometry solutions for chemical production wastewater industry
OUR measurements were made for two waste streams from a chemical production plant. The fingerprint for Waste 1 indicated the presence of three major groups of organic constituents. The first group of readily biodegradable organic constituents is oxidized at maximum kinetic rate through about one hour of contact. Oxidation of a second group of constituents causes the OUR to increase through about 3.5 hours of incubation. This increase in OUR is caused by growth of microorganisms during the oxidation reaction. ...

Respirometry system for anaerobic biochemical methane production
Anaerobic biodegradation tests – often referred to as Biochemical Methane Production (BMP) tests – involve addition of known amounts of a chemical or wastewater to anaerobic cultures. The quantity of methane production – relative to that from a control – indicates the biodegradation potential. This case study shows methane production for a Control reactor and three test reactors that were operated at 20-, 30- and 45-day retention times and received three doses of industrial wastewater. The ...

Oxygen monitoring from aerobic and anaerobic for biodegradation tests
Biodegradation tests involve testing samples in response to various parameters: dilution, nutrient addition, pH, temperature, and others. The pattern of oxygen uptake in aerobic tests; nitrogen gas production in anoxic denitrification tests; methane production in methanogenic tests; hydrogen production during glycolysis; and carbon dioxide production during fermentation reactions gives a measure of the rate and extent of biodegradation of the organic constituents of the test ...

Application of respirometry system for denitrification testing
Anoxic denitrification requires the presence of an organic substrate to serve as an electron donor. This case study shows how respirometry was used to determine the effect of C/N ratio on denitrification rates. Such testing can be used to determine optimum internal recycle rates or supplemental carbon addition to biological denitrification ...

Oxygen monitoring from aerobic and anaerobic for biomass activity tests
Pulse-Flow respirometers can be used to assess biomass activity for aerobic and anaerobic reactions. In aerobic tests, cultures are combined with nutrients, trace minerals, and an organic substrate – such as acetic acid or ethanol. The maximum oxygen uptake rate reflects the amount of active biomass in the test ...
