Raw wastewater is a potential carrier of pathogenic microorganisms and may pose a health risk when pathogenic microorganisms become aerosolized during aeration. Two different types of wastewater treatment plants were investigated, and the amounts of cultivable bacteria and fungi were measured in the ...

Filter material used for three years in a full-scale plant for leachate treatment and four years in treatment plants for wastewater from car washes, had sufficiently high energy content indicating that energy recovery is a good alternative for handling after its usage. Results show that the ...
(effluent) in a wastewater treatment plant.The results showed that the concentration of total nitrogen(TN),total phosphorus(TP) and chemical oxygen demand(COD) decreased sharply at the beginning of the test,but this decreasing trend slowed down in the late phase.The wetland plants could remove ...
As a class of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), illicit drugs should be taken into account in the water management because of their social and public health risks. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are usually considered as the source and sink of contaminants, and drug residues are obse...
The analysis of microbial community composition and its correlation with water quality of different disturbances (industrial effluent, aquacultural wastewater, domestic sewage, confluences, dam and wetlands) were further conducted. The results revealed that water quality parameters had significant spatial ...
New tools are being developed to estimate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). There is a trend to move from empirical factors to simple comprehensive and more complex process-based models. Thus, the main objective of this study is to demonstrate the importance...
Evaluation of nutrient removal efficiency and microbial enzyme activity in a baffled subsurface-flow constructed wetland system In this study, the enzyme activities and their relationships to domestic wastewater purification are investigated in four different types of subsurface-flo...

showers, and laundry for purposes like irrigation and toilet flushing. This system significantly reduces the demand for freshwater and lowers the volume of wastewater entering the sewage system. Greywater recycling is an innovative way to make the most of every drop of water used in your building...
This behavior can also be related to the soil reduction process in flooded rice fields, increasing Mn solubility and its uptake by rice plants, resulting in a higher Mn content in rice straw compared to other crop residues. The elevated concentrations of micronutrients in biochars are due to ...
