Practical BM Respirometry for biological wastewater treatment
Three different operation modes While most of the respirometers on the market offer only one operation mode, the BM respirometers have three different operation modes: OUR mode, Cyclic OUR mode, and R mode. Each mode develops different respirograms for automatic parameters including D.O., Temperature, and pH (in BM-Advance) from where specific applications can be made. In a single batch ...

What is biological wastewater treatment?
Biological wastewater treatment harnesses the action of bacteria and other microorganisms to clean water Biological wastewater treatment is a process that seems simple on the surface since it uses natural processes to help with the decomposition of organic substances, but in fact, it’s a complex, not completely understood process at the intersection of biology and biochemistry. Biological ...

Whitepaper - Wastewater treatment in the dairy processing recovering energy using anaerobic technology industry
Introduction The composition of wastewater from dairy processing plants makes it highly suitable for biological wastewater treatment processing. As well anaerobic biological treatment of the wastewater there is also the option of applying anaerobic biological processes. By applying anaerobic technology a large part of the organic load in the wastewater can be removed and converted into ...

Corus, Europe’s leading Iron and Steel producer, has acquired Strathkelvin’s latest respirometer resulting in the vastly improved security of their Biological Wastewater Treatment Processes in IJmuiden, Netherlands.
Dutch-Anglo iron and steel producer Corus installed a biological wastewater treatment plant that was put into operation at their major production facility in IJmuiden , the Netherlands . Following the first year of operation serious problems were encountered. The most probable cause was toxic components in one of the wastewater flows that dramatically decreased the removal efficiency of the ...

How Shasun maximises the investment in it`s biological wastewater treatment plant
At the Dudley Shasun facility we have a 7500 m3 biological treatment plant that can treat up to 36 tonnes of waste COD per day. Part of this capacity is utilised to treat up to 15 tankers per day of third party aqueous waste. The waste is very varied, covering everything from leachates at only 2000ppm COD to industrial waste at up to 500,000ppm COD. The Strathkelvin respirometer forms a central ...

BM Respirometry a state of the art technology
BM respirometery is a technology where the traditional and most advanced respirometry techniques are gathered in one exclusive design developed by SURCIS Company. BM Respirometry makes use of a single reaction vessel, that in certain modes, can replicate the actions that occur at a treatment plant within the conditions set for the test. The BM-respirometers, using powerful software, provide a ...

Using respirometry for energy optimization in a nitrifying biological wastewater treatment system
ABSTRACT Many wastewater treatment plants use more than 50% of their total energy budget in the aeration basin and, when nutrient removal is included in the activated sludge process, it is very common that the majority of oxygen uptake goes to the nitrification process. For that reason, in most wastewater treatment plants, energy optimization is focused on nitrification management. This ...

Study about the treatability of an industrial stream by means advanced BM Respirometry - Case Study
When it is needed to know whether a particular type of industrial stream can be treated biologically, either because it is expected to be incorporated into the global influent of the treatment process or because has to be individually eliminated in a new biological treatment, it is necessary to know its biodegradable character, degree of toxicity or possible inhibition that could cause in the ...

RHEINISCHE BIOESTER - Anaerobic wastewater treatment in biodiesel production - Case Study
Some processes during the production of biodiesel, such as glycerine evaporation, fatty acid and methyl ester drying (vapour condensate), generate wastewater which is highly contaminated with organic substances. The most significant substances in the wastewater are glycerine, methanol and free fatty acids. EnviroChemie supplies biological wastewater treatment plants with biogas recovery for the ...

BM Respirometry applied to a novel control strategy of nitrification in a wastewater biological treatment
Abstract In wastewater treatment plants, the biological nitrogen removal (BNR) has acquired critical importance, which makes that in the majority of the cases the overall process control largely depends on the control of this treatment. The normal aerobic process of nitrification is performed by specific aerobic living microorganisms and a lack of information on their bioactivity may be cause of ...
