Abstract Within the European project INCOVER, an experimental microalgae-based treatment system has been built for wastewater reuse and added-value products generation. This article describes this new plant start-up stage, starting from design of three semi-closed horizontal photobioreactors with low energy requirements microalgae cultivation (30 m3 total), using agricultural runoff urban as feedstock. The inflow nutrients concentration is adjusted to select cyanobacteria, able accumulate...
SWINGS was a cooperation project between the European Union and India, aiming at implementing state of art low-cost technologies for treatment reuse domestic wastewater in rural areas India. The largest plant consists high-rate anaerobic system, followed by vertical horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetlands with area around 1,900 m2 final step consisting solar-driven anodic oxidation (AO) ultraviolet (UV) disinfection units allowing direct treated water. implementation operation two...
The influence of bed depth on the performance aerated horizontal constructed wetlands was investigated at pilot plant scale. Two flow subsurface (HF) intensified units different (HF1: 0.90 m and HF2: 0.55 m, 0.8 0.5 water level, respectively) were fitted with forced aeration, while a third one (HFc, depth, level) used as control not aerated. three HF operated in parallel, receiving same municipal wastewater pre-treated hydrolytic up-flow sludge blanket anaerobic digester. Applied surface...
Abstract The present study was conducted to treat primary and secondary treated sewage for its reuse in irrigation, soil enrichment aquaculture activities. involves treatment of this through a subsurface horizontal gravity-fed gravel filter bed with an area 35 m2. effluent then subjected filtration by zeolite medium disinfection inline electrolytic production chlorine. In order provide pathogen-free water, anodic oxidation (AO) system implemented, treating flow up 10 m3/d. gravity-driven...
Constructed wetlands represent a low-cost and highly efficient municipal wastewater treatment alternative, due to their low technological energy demands. Wetland vegetation releases an amount of carbon the system, when it is decomposed (winter period). Part this organic matter could remain in will be at very rates during winter spring. In research, constructed superficial-flow wetland was divided into two equal parts (Typha latifolia) harvested one them. The load applied system 11.2...
Abstract The anaerobic treatment of raw domestic wastewater by a novel technology consisting an Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Bed (UASB) reactor combined with completely mixed digester for the stabilisation UASB sludge was assessed. A pilotscale plant so-called UASB-Digester system located at municipal facility Santiago de Compostela (Northwest Spain). main aim Digester to enhance biodegradation influent solids retained in low temperatures, then increasing its specific methanogenic activity....
Arsenic contamination in drinking water resources is of major concern the Ganga delta plains West Bengal India and Bangladesh. Here, several laboratory field studies on arsenic removal from were conducted past application strong-oxidant-induced co-precipitation iron hydroxides still considered as most promising mechanism. This paper suggests an autonomous, solar driven setting presents findings a long term test Bengal. The system applies inline-electrolytic cell for situ chlorine production...
An experimental plant was constituted for an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor with active volume of 25.5 m3 and two horizontal constructed wetlands 75 m2 each. The first wetland a superficial flow (SF) system the second subsurface (SSF) system. UASB fed 60-73 d(-1) raw domestic wastewater from municipal treatment (MTP) city Santiago de Compostela. Part effluent (15 d(-1)) passed through SF then went into SSF. In ten months operation, July 2005 to April 2006, hydraulic retention...
A polymer in a layered environment is modeled as directed path square lattice composed of alternating A-layers width wa and B-layers wb. In this paper we consider general cases model, where edges the interact with layers, vertices interfaces between adjacent layers. The phase diagram exhibits different regimes. particular, found that may be localized to one layer, adsorbed on an interface two layers or delocalized across We examine special aspects model detail: asymptotic regimes models are...
The HIGHWET project combines the hydrolytic up-flow sludge bed (HUSB) anaerobic digester and constructed wetlands (CWs) with forced aeration for decreasing footprint improving effluent quality. plant in A Coruña (NW of Spain) treating municipal wastewater consists a HUSB four parallel subsurface horizontal flow (HF) CWs. HF1, HF2 HF3 units are fitted aeration, while control HF4 is not aerated. All HF provided recirculation, but different heights gravel (0.8 m HF1 HF2, 0.5 HF4) implemented....
