one of the most important concerns in tehran municipal landfill is the production of leachate and its potential for water resources pollution, this study was undertaken to examine feasibility of biological and physico/chemical treating of high-strength landfill leachate that was collected from tehran municipal landfill. average cod of the leachate in aerobic submerged membrane bioreactor is 680...

The high-strength wastewater is now well known as a threat to the natural water since it is highly possible to arouse water eutrophication or algal blooms. The effects of various light emitting diode wavelengths and intensities on the microalgae biological wastewater treatment system was studied in this research. The various nutrient removals and economic efficiencies represented similar variat...

A two-stage upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) and sequencing batch reactor (SBR) system was introduced to treat landfill leachate for advanced removal of COD and nitrogen at low temperature. In order to improve the total nitrogen (TN) removal efficiency and to reduce the COD requirement for denitrification, the raw leachate with recycled SBR nitrification supernatant was pumped into the fi...

Free nitrous acid (FNA), which is the protonated form of nitrite and inevitably produced during biological nitrogen removal, has been demonstrated to strongly inhibit the activity of polyphosphate accumulating organisms (PAOs). Herein we reported an efficient process for wastewater treatment, i.e., the oxic/anoxic/oxic/extended-idle process to mitigate the generation of FNA and its inhibition o...

Article Type: Full Length Research Article The aim of this investigation was to confirm a trickling filter filled with gravel as an alternative biological process over conventional high cost treatment process with regard to nutrient reduction from brewery wastewater. Steady state evaluation of the trickling filter aerobic and anaerobic biofilm system for nutrient removal was made. The results o...

Remediation of the City of Zagreb Jakusevec Dump Site, one of the largest dump sites in Europe, is in progress. Experimental laboratory results of leach­ ate treatment using aquatic macrophytes show that increasing the concentra­ tion of ammonia in the leachate decreases elimination efficiency. In all series of experiments, significantly greater elimination of ammonia and orthophos­ phates has ...

Two batch experiments were conducted during the months of June-July (summer) and September-October (fall) to determine the effect of Electrical Conductivity (EC) on nutrient and COD removal & uptake efficiency and growth of duckweed (Lemna minor) at leachate with various EC levels (500-3,000 μS cm -1 ) under the natural climatic conditions of Islamabad, Pakistan. Maximum removal rates (mg m -2 ...

Sorption media with mixes of some recycled materials, such as sawdust and tire crumbs, combined with sand/silt and limestone, become appealing in nutrient removal for promoting urban stormwater management with sustainability implications. This article aims to present a specific type of functionalized filter medium and examine its physicochemical process for nutrient removal with the aid of Lang...

Fungal assist microalgal cultivation is getting substantial considerations due to the highly efficiency of bioflocculation process without demanded of using chemicals and little bit energy input. Therefore, Fungi pelletization-assisted microalgal cultivation were applied for improving algal harvesting process and nutrient recovery as step wise for wastewater treatment. Two strains of marine mic...

some factors affecting crude protein balance (cpb), as a measure of efficiency, were studied using 2824 records of 501 lactating holstein cows. the cpb (kg d-1) was calculated as crude protein (cp) intake (kg) minus cp yield (kg). two different statistical methods including principal components (pcs) and general linear model analyses were used to study the effects of different factors. crude pr...
