Natural iron ligands promote a metal-based oxidation mechanism for the Fenton reaction in water environments

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Giulio Farinelli

The Fenton reaction is an effective advanced oxidation process occurring in nature and applied in engineering processes toward the degradation of harmful substances, including contaminants of emerging concern. The traditional Fenton application can be rema ...

Water and sanitation hub in Mali. Reasons for an architecture seminar

Riccardo Vannucci

What is the goal of a five-day seminar for the (architectural) design of a ‘water and sanitation hub’ in Mali? What does one want to achieve, or rather, what is the seminar meant to ‘disseminate’? To begin with, what is a ‘water and sanitation hub’? It is ...

Co-culture of microalgae-activated sludge for wastewater treatment and biomass production: Exploring their role under different inoculation ratios

Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider

In this study, mixed culture (microalgae:activated sludge) of a photobioreactor (PBR) were investigated at different inoculation ratios (1:0, 9:1, 3:1, 1:1, 0:1 wt/wt). This work was not only to determine the optimal ratio for pollutant remediation and bio ...

Characterization of phosphorus species distribution in waste activated sludge after anaerobic digestion and chemical precipitation with Fe3+ and Mg2+

Jie Zhang, Lin Li

Given the great concern about phosphorus (P) resource depletion, it's promising to recover P from waste activated sludge (WAS) especially for agricultural application. To this end, it's necessary to understand the P speciation and fractionation within the ...

Health risks for sanitation service workers along a container-based urine collection system and resource recovery value chain

Tamar Kohn, Simon Schindelholz, Timothy R. Julian

Container-based sanitation (CBS) within a comprehensive service system value chain offers a low-cost sanitation option with potential for revenue generation, but may increase microbial health risks to sanitation service workers. This study assessed occupat ...

The Role of Environmental Variables in Waste Stabilization Ponds' Morphodynamics

Paolo Perona

In management of helminth infections and transmission, the correct prediction of sludge accumulation patterns in waste stabilization ponds (WSP) is important as sedimented eggs are associated with sludge depth. However, sedimentation in WSP is complicated ...

Production and characterization of low-energy Portland composite cement from post-industrial waste

The utilization of post-industrial waste materials is often challenging due to environmental regulations. Additionally, the scarcity of raw materials for producing cement is generating the demand for alternate sources of materials. The current study explor ...

Statistical comparison of the performance of data-based models for sewer condition modeling

José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos

The present article proposes a methodology to consider the uncertainty intrinsic to data-based models when comparing their performance. The goal is to provide a quantification of the variability of this type of models due to the random nature of the calibr ...

Imaging the aerobic granular sludge microbial community using light-sheet fluorescence micros

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Arnaud Michel Gelb, Karen Gemayel

One of the aims of wastewater treatment is the removal of phosphorus before the water is discharged into the environment. Since phosphorus concentrations in wastewater exceed the requirement of bacterial growth, biological phosphorus removal is based on th ...
