Growing recognition of treated wastewater as a resource is among the factors influencing its reuse in agriculture worldwide. Long-term effect irrigation with on soil widely reported; however, irrigated farming cycles sewage fertility rarely reported. In this study, greenhouse maize plot experiment, consisting triplicate plots and tap water was conducted for three consecutive cycles. Soil sample...

up flow anaerobic sludge blanket (uasb) reactors have been increasingly used for industrial wastewater treatment. because of existing problems in startup step of these reactors, in this research the startup of a uasb in pilot scale and room temperature condition was studied. the total height of uasb reactor was 270 cm and effective height was 240 cm. diameter of the reactor in lower part was 20...

Abstract: Limited water resources and ensuring access to clean water are critical environmental challenges, especially for the developing world. In particular, rural domestic wastewater has become a significant source for the pollution of freshwater bodies. A modified bio-ecological A2O-wetland system for rural wastewater treatment consisting of a biological unit (anaerobic baffled reactor, ano...

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 p...
