The paper presents the design of the integrated control system applied to Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) in a biological Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) in Swarzewo, which operates under activated sludge technology. Based on the real data records, ASM2d biological processes model and aeration system model, hierarchical control system for dissolved oxygen tracking and cycle management is desig...

Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is based on self-granulated flocs forming mobile biofilms with a gel-like consistence. Bacterial and structural dynamics from flocs to granules were followed in anaerobic-aerobic sequencing batch reactors (SBR) fed with synthetic wastewater, namely a bubble column (BC-SBR) operated under wash-out conditions for fast granulation, and two stirred-tank enrichments of ...

A modified single sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was developed to remove the nitrogen of the real landfill leachate in this study. To take the full advantage of the SBR, stir phase was added before and after aeration, respectively. The new mechanism in this experiment could improve the removal of nitrogen efficiently by the utilization of carbon source in the raw leachate. This experiment adopt...

Slaughterhouse wastewater contains diluted blood, protein, fat, and suspended solids, as a result the organic and nutrient concentration in this wastewater is vary high and the residues are partially solubilized, leading to a highly contaminating effect in riverbeds and other water bodies if the same is let off untreated. The performance of a laboratory-scale Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) has ...

The objective of this study was to assess the feasibility of the Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) system for implementation in Malaysia. Theoretical, field, laboratory investigations, and modelling simulations have been carried out. The results of the study indicated that the SBR system was robust, relatively cost-effective, and efficient under Malaysian conditions. However, the SBR system requir...

The coffee industry uses large amount of water during various stages of coffee production. Coffee processed by wet method generates large volume of high strength wastewater rich in COD and nutrients hence to comply with stringent environmental regulations and for restoration of safe environment, it has become imperative to find less costly and easily adaptable treatment technology. Coffee pulpi...

The benefits of deammonification to remove nitrogen from sidestreams, i.e., sludge dewatering liquors, in municipal wastewater treatment plants are well accepted. ammonia removal liquors originated thermal hydrolysis/anaerobic digestion (THP/AD) deemed challenging. Many different commercial technologies have been applied varying reactor design, biomass growth form and instrumentation control st...

A sequencing batch reactor (SBR) inoculated with activated sludge and bioaugmented a dye-decolorizing yeast strain—Yarrowia lipolytica (HOMOGST27AB) was assembled to form yeast-bioaugmented aerobic granular (AGS). The AGS-SBR operated for the treatment of synthetic saline wastewater (12 g L−1) intermittently fed reactive textile dye (Navy Everzol ED) at 25, 15, 7.5 mg L−1. Dye degradation did n...

The inhibitory effects of antibiotics (tetracycline, doxycycline, amoxicillin), an anti-inflammatory (ibuprofen) and an analgesic (paracetamol) on the via nitrite nitrogen and phosphorus removal processes were investigated. Biomass was collected from a sequencing batch reactor (SBR) and was spiked with fixed pharmaceutical concentrations (i.e. 50-500 mgL). Then, batch activity tests were conduc...
