Optimization of Reactor Startup and Nitrogen Removal of Aerobic Granular Sludge Systems

Samuel Lochmatter

Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) in sequencing batch reactors (SBR) has recently made its proofs as full-scale technology for the biological treatment of urban wastewater. In contrast to conventional flocculent activated sludge, microorganisms aggregate to de ...

Novel design of a microstructured reactor allowing fast temperature oscillations

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi, Martin Luther

Two types of stainless steel microstructured reactors for catalytic gas-phase reactions have been developed and characterized with respect to their thermal behaviour under non-stationary temperature conditions. One of the reactors used (FTC-I) allowed peri ...

Modeling Cryptosporidium parvum oocyst inactivation and bromate in a flow-through ozone contactor treating natural water

Urs von Gunten

A reactive transport model was developed to simultaneously predict Cryptosporidium parvuum oocyst inactivation and bromate formation during ozonation of natural water. A mechanistic model previously established to predict bromate formation in organic-free ...
