The aim of this study was to characterize hospital effluents in investigating the CHUV importance as source of pollutants, the range and amounts of pharmaceuticals that are used in the hospital and the need of source treatment of the hospital sewage. The C ...
Justification In Sub-Saharan Africa, excreta and wastewater disposal is characterised primarily by on-site sanitation systems. This sanitation option is more likely to increase as governments, municipalities, communities, private operators and donor agenci ...
The concept of producing renewable microalgae biomass using as a main nutrient source a secondary wastewater stream is presently under investigation. It is planned to purify the wastewater by the growth of algal biomass while producing a feedstock that can ...
The present study takes place in Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso), a typical Sub-Saharan city where water shortage and food crisis necessitate wastewater reuse in urban agriculture. Different issues linked to this practice were studied in two components separate ...
Relatively high concentrations of micropollutants in municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents underscore the necessity to develop additional treatment steps prior to discharge of treated wastewater. Microorganisms that produce unspecific oxida ...
Many hydrophilic organic compounds present at low concentrations in municipal wastewater, such as several pharmaceuticals, biocides and pesticides, are recalcitrant in conventional wastewater treatment plants. To improve the biodegradation of these compoun ...
This study compares six wastewater sludge treatment scenarios applied to a 300,000 equivalent-inhabitant (eq. inh) wastewater treatment plant: agricultural spreading, fluidised bed incineration, wet oxidation, pyrolysis, incineration in cement kilns and la ...
The discharge of synthetic and natural steroid estrogens from municipal wastewaters to the aquatic environment has received increased attention because of their potential reproductive effects on fish. Using 17 alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE2) as a representati ...
Most of development programs in sanitation encourage the building of infrastructure such as treatment plants that are unfortunately rapidly abandoned for reasons that are not well understood. A methodology to assess these factors for wastewater and faecal ...
Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) represent pollutants of emerging concern, originating in surface and drinking waters largely from their persistence in wastewater effluent. Accordingly, a wealth of recent investigations has examined PPCP ...
