The influence of biogas flow rate (0, 0.3, 0.6, and 1.2 m3 m–2 h–1) on the elemental macromolecular composition algal-bacterial biomass produced from upgrading in a 180 L photobioreactor interconnected to 2.5 external bubbled absorption column was investigated using diluted anaerobically digested vinasse as cultivation medium. liquid recirculation/biogas ratio (0.5 < L/G 67) removal CO2 H2S, concentrations O2 N2 upgraded biogas, also evaluated. A 10 considered optimum support H2S removals...

The adsorption of the veterinary medicinal products (VMP) tetracycline (TET), ciprofloxacin (CIP), sulfadiazine (SDZ) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) onto a dried Scenedesmus almeriensis microalgae-bacteria consortium was studied at several equilibrium concentrations (20 to 1000 μg/L). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis were performed investigate surface morphology microalgae identify effect antibiotics´ functional groups on S. bacteria....

The mechanisms involved in the removal of a mixture four veterinary antibiotics (VA) – tetracycline (TTC), ciprofloxacin (CPF), sulfadiazine (SDZ) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) synthetic wastewater using microalgae–bacteria consortia (MBC) dominated by Scenedesmus almeriensis was studied at different initial concentrations 1000, 500, 100 20 μg/L per antibiotic. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) were used to determine VA for each mechanism. For...

Scenedesmus almeriensis microalgae–bacteria consortia were evaluated for the removal of a mixture tetracycline (TET), ciprofloxacin (CIP), and sulfadiazine (SDZ) from real liquid fraction pig slurry in pilot scale photobioreactor. After 15 days operation, reactor was spiked with 100μg/L each antibiotic. The experiment ran 20 additional days. From phase, antibiotic 77 ± 5 %, 90 14 60 27 % TET, CIP, SDZ, respectively. antibiotics found solid phase 979 382 ng/g TET 192 69 SDZ; CIP not detected...
