A process-based model relevant to landfill and anaerobic digesters was developed, which included a novel approach to biomass transfer between a cellulose-bound biofilm and biomass in the bulk liquid. Model results highlighted the significance of the bacter ...
Aerobic granular sludge-based reactors represent an attractive alternative to conventional activated sludge systems due to their small footprint and their low energy consumption and excess sludge production. The granules developed in such systems have high ...
Aerobic granular sludge-based reactors represent an attractive alternative to conventional activated sludge systems. Compared to activated sludge, the use of aerobic granular sludge reactors is advantageous because (i) considerably less area is required fo ...
Aerobic granular sludge is a promising alternative to traditional activated sludge basins in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). Granular sludge has much better settling characteristics than activated sludge. Furthermore it can remove carbon, nitrogen and ...
The speciation of the trace nutrients Co(II) and Ni(II) in sulfide containing media can control the methanogenic activity of Methanosarcina sp., which is of importance for the optimisation of anaerobic treatment of wastewater containing methanol. To obtain ...
A field method called gas push–pull test (GPPT) was previously developed for in-situ quantification of methane (CH4) oxidation by soil microorganisms. We examined whether natural-abundance stable carbon-isotope analysis of CH4, a common approach used to me ...
Biogas production transforms organic matter into methane, carbon dioxide and ammonia (NH3). The aim of this study was reducing NH3 emissions from liquid effluents of agricultural anaerobic digesters. An alternative to classic nitrification-denitrification ...
The field of proteomics has emerged as a valuable analytical tool for elucidating cellular and biological systems at the molecular level. As there is an ever-growing demand for new highly automated, high-throughput, and sensitive analytical tools, a key ch ...
The most common energy application for biogas is on-site power generation using gas engine units. The introduction of a bottoming cycle based on Scroll expander Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology within a biogas plant is of high interest since the exce ...
