Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) using 16S and 23S rRNA-targeted probes together with construction of an archaeal 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) clone library was used to characterize the microbial populations of an anaerobic baffled reactor successfully treating industrial dye waste. Wastewater produced during the manufacture of food dyes containing several different azo and other dye compou...

The one-stage partial nitritation and anammox process with the hydroxyapatite (HAP)-based syntrophic granules was studied for ammonium nitrogen removal from effluents of a self-agitated anaerobic baffled reactor treating fish processing wastewater. When in influent 1140 mg N·L-1, high rate efficiency 1.51 ± 0.10 kg N·m−3·d-1 88.2% were obtained, respectively. Anammox bacteria Candidatus Kueneni...

in this paper, startup performance of upflow anaerobic hybrid reactor and upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors in anaerobic treatment of distillery spentwash has been studied under identical conditions of operation. various effluent characteristics like ph, electrical conductivity, chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand and total solids and other process parameters like biogas pr...

The nitrogen removal from wastewater and landfill leachate has become a vital part of the overall treatment process because nitrogen compounds have the significant impact on the environment. Generally, biological nitrogen removal is used for nitrogen elimination from wastewater. In the last years, newly advanced anaerobic reactor systems such as up flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB), anaerobi...
