This study is focused on Pseudomonas putida bacteria transport in porous media the presence of suspended kaolinite clay particles. Experiments were performed with and particles separately to determine their individual characteristics water‐saturated columns packed glass beads. The results indicated that mass recovery decreased as pore water velocity decreased. Batch experiments carried out investigate attachment onto process was adequately described by a Langmuir isotherm. Finally, injected...
Domestic and industrial wastewaters contain organic substrates nutrients that can be recovered instead of being dissipated by emerging efficient technologies. The aim this study was to promote bio-hydrogen production carbon fixation using a mixed culture purple phototrophic bacteria (PPB) use infrared radiation in presence or absence an electrode as electron donor. In order evaluate the hydrogen under electrode-free conditions, batch experiments were conducted different nitrogen (NH4Cl,...
Sunflower residues are considered a prominent renewable source for biogas production during anaerobic digestion (AD). However; the recalcitrant structure of this lignocellulosic substrate requires pretreatment step efficient biomass transformation and increased bioenergy output. The aim present study was to assess effect alkaline various parts sunflower (e.g., heads stalks) on their methane yield. Experimental data showed that at mild conditions (55 °C; 24 h; 4 g NaOH 100 g-1 total solids)...
In this study we report the isolation of four denitrifying bacteria from a batch reactor, where progress hydrogenotrophic denitrification was examined. Only three strains had ability to use hydrogen as electron donor. present work, kinetic experiments were carried out in order dynamic characteristics pure and defined mixed cultures hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria, under anoxic conditions, synthetic medium, presence nitrates. Kinetic models developed parameters determined for each bacterium...
Biogas plants have been started to expand recently in Greece and their positive contribution the economy is evident. A typical case study presented which focuses on long-term monitoring (lasting for one year) of a 500 kW mesophilic biogas plant consisting an one-stage digester. The main feedstock used was cow manure, supplemented occasionally with chicken corn silage, wheat/ray glycerine, cheese whey, molasses olive mill wastewater. mixture feedstocks adjusted based availability, cost...
Abstract BACKGROUND The present study demonstrates the decomposition of pentachlorophenol (PCP) by Fenton reaction in presence gallic acid (GA). Unlike other studies, catalytic Fe 2+ concentrations were used with respect to PCP an effort evaluate environmentally benign system, studying effect phenolic‐type compounds widely found environment. operating variables was evaluated. RESULTS At initial times or at low H 2 O and concentrations, GA enhanced removal. high removal only times....
