Biomass production from fermented starch wastewater in photo-bioreactor with internal overflow recirculation

Potential Production of Biofuel from Microalgae Biomass Produced in Wastewater

Practice review of five bioreactor/recirculation landfills.

Five landfills were analyzed to provide a perspective of current practice and technical issues that differentiate bioreactor and recirculation landfills in North America from conventional landfills. The bioreactor and recirculation landfills were found to function in much the same manner as conventional landfills, with designs similar to established standards for waste containment facilities. L...

Optimization studies in an Inverse Fluidized Bed Bioreactor for Starch Wastewater Treatment

A solid – liquid – gas, multiphase reactor, called Inverse Fluidized Bed Bioreactor (IFBBR) was used in this study for the treatment of starch industry wastewater of high organic content and acidic nature. Mixed culture obtained from the sludge, taken from starch industry effluent treatment plant, was used as microorganisms. Experiments were carried out in an Inverse fluidized bed bioreactor, a...

Isolation of microalgae with potential for integrated biomass production and nutrient removal from wastewater

Abstract The present study firstly investigates the variations of microalgae in the constructed wetland. Then one of the potential microalgal species was isolated and cultured in autotrophic and mixotrophic growth to compare the performance on biomass production and to evaluate the ability of wastewater treatment and simultaneous biodiesel production. Scenedesmus sp. was an abundant strain in t...
