Saline sewage treatment and source separation of urine for more sustainable urban water management
While energy consumption and its associated carbon emission should be minimized in wastewater treatment, it has a much lower priority than human and environmental health, which are both closely related to efficient water quality management. So conservation of surface water quality and quantity are more important for sustainable development than green house gas (GHG) emissions per se. In this ...

Corrosion in wastewater systems: More than one bug
The role of various bacteria in the destruction of concrete in wastewater systems has been recognized since 1945. Parker1 described the role of an acid producing bacterium that he called Thiobacillus concretivorous, which he had isolated from corroded concrete from a Melbourne, Australia sewage system. Th. concretivorous was described as a sulfate reducing bacterium (SRB) which converts hydrogen ...
