The discharge of industrial effluent constituting high orthophosphates and organic pollutants in water receiving bodies compromises freshwater quality perpetuates eutrophication. In this study, an anaerobic–aerobic sequencing batch reactor (SBR) under activated sludge was investigated for chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal from brewery wastewater. Raw wastewater samples were collected on a da...

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanopowders at different concentrations (0-50 mg L-1) were injected into an aerobic-sequencing batch reactor (SBR) to investigate the effects of long-term exposure to nanoparticles on bacterial and protozoan communities. The detection of nanoparticles in the bioflocs was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive x-r...

The goal of this study was to identify bacterial populations that assimilated methanol in a denitrifying sequencing batch reactor (SBR), using stable isotope probing (SIP) of (13)C labeled DNA and quantitatively track changes in these populations upon changing the electron donor from methanol to ethanol in the SBR feed. Based on SIP derived (13)C 16S rRNA gene clone libraries, dominant SBR meth...

This study introduced an alternative shortcut biological nitrogen removal (SBNR) process for landfill leachate treatment by developing a novel hydrodynamic sequencing batch reactor (H-SBR). The could enhance the oxygen transfer rate (OTR) and nitrite accumulation ratio (NAR) modifying internal turbulence intensity. average chemical demand (COD) total (TN) concentrations into were 660 250 mg L−1...

in this research, a plot consisting of two sequencing batch reactors (sbr) both reactors were anaerobic stageand its aeration time was had the primary anaerobic stage witling change inthe'touilr:eaction time (9.5 hours).the average concentration of influent phosphorus and rector were 7.5 and 800 miligram per litre respectively. in two months periods the average effeciencies of phosphorus r...

Removal efficiency of COD, NH4-N and PO4-P and NO3-N in five step SBR processes is widely influenced by hydraulic retention time of Anaerobic/Anoxic/Aerobic/Anoxic/Aerobic step of this system where the hydraulic retention time in each step is influence directly on removal efficiency of this system therefore the operator of this system cannot control on this system without experience or a contro...

Sequencing batch reactor (SBR) is a versatile, eco-friendly, and cost-saving process for the biological treatment of nutrient-rich wastewater, at varying loading rates. The performance of a laboratory-scale SBR was monitored to ascertain the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total nitrogen (T-N) removals under four different operating conditions, by varying the operating time for the nitrificati...
