1. Multiresidue Determination of Endocrine Disrupting Compounds in Sewage Treatment Plants (SPE-HPLC-DAD)
This work focuses on the validation and application of solid phase extraction followed by high-performance liquid chromatography (SPE-HPLC) analysis of important endocrine disruptors compounds (EDC) from different classes in highly complex wastewater matrix. The endocrine disruptors investigated included three different categories: pharmaceuticals (sulfameth

2. Use of Coffee Capsules as Support Material in Upflow Anaerobic Fixed Bed Reactors
Abstract The aim of this work is to evaluate the performance of upflow anaerobic fixed bed reactors filled with espresso coffee capsules to treat sanitary sewage. Three reactors (R1, R2 and R3) were constructed in blue PVC pipes measuring 30 cm height and 150 mm diameter and filled with coffee capsules made of aluminum and plastic. The sewage from the pre-tr

3. INFLUENCE OF HYDRAULIC RETENTION TIME ON HYDROGEN PRODUCTION BY TREATING CHEESE WHEY WASTEWATER IN ANAEROBIC FLUIDIZED BED BIOREACTOR - AN APPROACH FOR DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
Abstract This study assessed the effect of hydraulic retention time (HRT) on biohydrogen production by dark fermentation using an anaerobic fluidized bed reactor fed with cheese whey synthetic wastewater. The reactor of 1.2 L was operated with an approximate carbohydrate concentration of 2800 mg L-1, and HRTs of 6, 4, 2, 1 and 0.5 h. Acetic and butyric acids

4. Feasibility of biohydrogen production by co-digestion of vinasse (sugarcane stillage) and molasses in an AnSBBR
Abstract This work studied the feasibility of biohydrogen production by co-digestion of vinasse/molasses in an AnSBBR operated with mechanical stirring (30°C and 200 rpm). Hydrogen production by co-digestion of vinasse/sucrose was also studied to verify the performance of the process with a known co-substrate with easy degradation. The effects of influent c

5. Sensitive Estrogens Determination in Wastewater Samples by HPLC and Fluorescence Detection
A sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection method (HPLC-FLD) was developed and validated for 17β-estradiol (E2) and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) determination in wastewater samples. Sample preparation was performed by solid-phase extraction (SPE) on Hypersep C18 cartridges. Conditioning and elution solvents and sample volume we

6. Investigation of the Environmental Transport of Human Pharmaceuticals to Surface Water: A Case Study of Persistence of Pharmaceuticals in Effluent of Sewage Treatment Plants and Hospitals in Malaysia
The present work reports the occurrence and monitoring of 11 pharmaceuticals (i.e., caffeine, prazosin, enalapril, carbamazepine, nifedipine, gliclazide, levonorgestrel, simvastatin, hydrochlorothiazide, diclofenac-Na and mefenamic acid) in surface water and in the influent and effluent of sewage treatment plants (STPs) and hospitals (HSPs). A total of 105 w

7. EFFECT OF SULFATE LOADING RATE AND ORGANIC LOADING RATE ON ANAEROBIC BAFFLED REACTORS USED FOR TREATMENT OF SANITARY LANDFILL LEACHATES
AbstractThis study investigated the effect of organic loading rate (OLR) and sulfate loading rate (SLR) on landfill leachate treatment by a lab-scale anaerobic baffled reactor (ABR). Landfill leachate contained a concentration of organic matter between 3966 and 5090 mg COD.L-1 and no detectable amounts of sulfate. Reactors were started-up by feeding them wit

8. BIOHYDROGEN FROM CHEESE WHEY TREATMENT IN AN AnSBBR: ACHIEVING PROCESS STABILITY
AbstractAn AnSBBR (anaerobic sequencing batch reactor containing biomass immobilized on an inert support) with liquid phase recirculation, containing a 3.5 L working volume, treated 1.5 L of cheese whey wastewater in 3 and 4 h cycles at 30 ºC to produce biohydrogen. From startup the bioreactor presented process instability. To overcome this problem the foll

9. AnSBBR with circulation applied to biohydrogen production treating sucrose based wastewater: effects of organic loading, influent concentration and cycle length
An anaerobic sequencing batch biofilm reactor (AnSBBR) containing immobilized biomass and operating with recirculation of the liquid phase (total liquid volume 4.5 L; treated volume per cycle 1.9 L) was used to treat sucrose-based wastewater at 30 ºC and produce biohydrogen. The influence of applied volumetric organic load was studied by varying the influen

10. Characterization of the biomass of a hybrid anaerobic reactor (HAR) with two types of support material during the treatment of the coffee wastewater
This study investigated the microbiology of a hybrid anaerobic reactor (HAR) in the removal of pollutant loads. This reactor had the same physical structure of an UASB reactor, however with minifilters inside containing two types of support material: expanded clay and gravel. Two hydraulic retention times (HRT) of 24h and 18h were evaluated at steady-state c

11. Emissões de óxido nitroso do tanque de aeração de uma estação de tratamento de esgotos com sistema de lodos ativados convencional
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions were measured monthly from January to June 2010 in the aeration tank of a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Southeast Brazil. Emissions were lower in summer than winter and were positively related with influent ammonium (NH4+) concentration. The average N2O emission was 1.11 kg N day-1 corresponding to 0.02% of the influent t

12. Influência da carga orgânica na produção de biohidrogênio em ASBBR com agitação tratando água residuária sintética / Influence of influent concentration and feed time on biohydrogen production in an ASBBR with agitation treating sucrose based wastewater
A mechanically stirred anaerobic sequencing batch reactor containing immobilized biomass treated sucrose-based synthetic wastewater to produce biohydrogen. The system was inoculated with sludge from an anaerobic methanogenic reactor. The following have been assessed: production of biohydrogen, yield per applied and removed load, reactor stability and efficie
