Development of monitoring and evaluation system for wastewater issues in Palestine
Wastewater is the main source of groundwater pollution if it is not properly collected and treated. In many parts of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank wastewater is collected through cesspits, while in other areas it is collected through networks and treated in central treatments plants. Collecting aggregate information on the level of indicators with concern to the wastewater issues (collection, ...

Minimizing risks in wastewater reuse: proposed operational principles and guidelines for South Africa
Treated wastewater represents a significant potential source of reclaimed water for some beneficial reuses. However, public concern over the risks/health-related hazards of wastewater reuse has limited the general acceptability of reuse systems in many countries. It is important to manage the operation of recycled water systems in such a way that it will not adversely affect public health and ...

Radionuclides in wastewater treatment plants: monitoring of Sicilian plants
Three Sicilian wastewater treatment plants were monitored to assess the occurrence and the behaviour of radionuclides. Two sampling campaigns (screening and long-term) were carried out during which liquid and solid samples have been analysed. It was found that 131I mostly occurred in the samples analysed during the screening campaign (43% of the analysed samples contained 131I). High ...

Simplify DO Monitoring with Flexible, Low-Maintenance Sensors
Simplify DO Monitoring with Flexible, Low-Maintenance Sensors There’s no bigger priority in wastewater treatment than monitoring dissolved oxygen–and making sure measurements are accurate. Inaccurate DO measurements are disastrous for process and budget. Pump too little oxygen and the organisms converting ammonia can die, putting the whole process on hold until you can get bacteria ...

Wastewater Treatment Plant Monitors Greenhouse Gas Emissions - Case Study
Globally, little attention is paid to gaseous emissions from wastewater treatment processes. This contrasts greatly with the regulatory monitoring that is applied to the quality of water emissions from such facilities. However, in Helsinki, Finland, a large municipal wastewater treatment facility continuously monitors its emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) to help in the city’s efforts to ...

Optimizing Aeration Rate in Wastewater Treatment
OVERVIEW A significant portion of a wastewater treatment plant’s energy costs are due to aeration operations (~45-75% of the total energy). The required aeration rate of a biological treatment system is determined by three key parameters: incoming organic loading expressed in terms of COD or BOD, dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration maintained in the aeration tank, and the concentration of ...

Water and Wastewater Chemical Management - Case study
Objective Our MCE analytics platform uses existing chemical tank level data for chemical management and monitoring on water and wastewater sites. By monitoring the rates of change in tank levels, we automatically work out if tanks are emptying or being filled. So, we can calculate chemical consumption and applied dose rates using existing telemetry or SCADA data. This is up and running on more ...

A modified anaerobic digestion process with chemical sludge pre-treatment and its modelling
Activated Sludge Models (ASMs) assume an unbiodegradable organic particulate fraction in the activated sludge, which is derived from the decay of active microorganisms in the sludge and/or introduced from wastewater. In this study, a seasonal change of such activated sludge constituents in a municipal wastewater treatment plant was monitored for 1.5 years. The chemical oxygen demand ratio of ...
