Formation of artificial granules for proving gelation as the main mechanism of aerobic granulation in biological wastewater treatment
In this study, gelation-facilitated biofilm formation as a new mechanism is proposed for the phenomenon of aerobic granulation in biological wastewater treatment. To obtain an experimental proof for the gelation-based theory, the granulation process was simulated in a chemical system using latex particles for bacterial cells and organic polymers (alginate and peptone) for extracellular ...

Correlation of wood-based components and dewatering properties of waste activated sludge from pulp and paper industry
Large amounts of wet sludge are produced annually in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. Already in pulp and paper industry, more than ten million tons of primary sludge, waste activated sludge, and de-inking sludge is generated. Waste activated sludge contains large quantities of bound water, which is difficult to dewater. Low water content would be a matter of high calorific value in ...

MBR Based treatment of tractor manufacturing wastewater
Abstract Kubota corporation has recently built new tractor manufacturing plant in Jefferson Georgia. CWT and Kubota agreed to design, pilot test and build a system for full water reuse of up to 75% of produced wastewater. Wastewater is very complex and contains complexed heavy metals, fine suspended solids, emulsified oils, grease, strong degreasing agents, nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorous) ...

Treatment of tunnel wash water and implications for its disposal
The use of road tunnels in urban areas creates water pollution problems, since the tunnels must be frequently cleaned for traffic safety reasons. The washing generates extensive volumes of highly polluted water, for example, more than fivefold higher concentrations of suspended solids compared to highway runoff. The pollutants in the wash water have an affinity for particulate material, so ...

How to Make Wastewater Treatment Flocculation Sustainable, Non Toxic, and Efficient
If you manage a water treatment plant or consult those who do, you know wastewater treatment flocculation is essential to delivering clean, safe, and reliable water. Following coagulation water treatment, flocculation encourages small, suspended particles in water to clump together into flocs, making them easy to be removed by post filtration. However, although flocculation helps remove ...

Natural Flocculants versus Synthetic Polymers for Wastewater Treatment: An In Depth Study
Understanding Natural Flocculants versus Synthetic Polymers in Wastewater Treatment In the intriguing world of coagulation and flocculation, suspended solids and color removal revolve around destabilizing impurities in wastewater. These processes neutralize charges to facilitate efficient solid-liquid separation resulting in cleaner effluents. I will discuss below the differences between natural ...

The development and application of the hybrid centrifugal - dissolved air flotation system for wastewater treatment
Abstract Solid/liquid separations are integral part of any wastewater treatment system. Particles heavier than water are commonly separated in sedimentation clarifiers. On the other hand, particles with densities lower than that of water are most often separated with flotation systems. This manuscript describes the development of hybrid centrifugal - dissolved air flotation system. The system was ...

Electrocoagulation Wastewater Treatment: Specialized Technology to meet the needs of food & beverage wastewater
The effects of water scarcity and stricter environmental regulations placed on water usage are increasing the cost of using freshwater globally. The consequences of these increasing costs on food and beverage companies are twofold, since the companies are charged for both the water that they utilize in their processes and on their wastewater discharge. Additionally, the food and beverage ...
