Keuten, M.G.A. (author), Peters, M.C.F.M. (author), van Dijk, J.C. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Rietveld, L.C. (author)Swimming pools are traditionally disinfected with a residual disinfectant such as sodium hypochlorite. Nowadays, swimming water without a residual disinfectant is increasingly popular, as can be seen by the growing number of (natural) swimming ponds (Weilandt 2015), but health risks for bathers do raise concerns for these type of pools, so some...abstract 2017

Kulshreshtha, A. (author), Vardon, P.J. (author), Mota, Nelson (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Jonkers, H.M. (author)Earth houses are considered sustainable and affordable as compared to houses built with concrete or fired clay bricks. Moreover, it preserves the vernacular social and spatial traditions (cultural identity) of the community. With rapid industrialization and the increase in popularity of concrete and brick constructions, a decline in earth houses...abstract 2018

Sharma, Keshab (author), Gutierrez, Oriol (author), Yuan, Zhiguo (author), Daelman, Matthijs R.J. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Volcke, Eveline I.P. (author)This chapter provides a review of the models available for estimating the production and emission of methane from wastewater collection and treatment systems. The details of a number of mechanistic models as well as the simplified empirical models have been summarized. Their limitations have been identified and general methods for calibration...book chapter 2022

(author), van der Putten, Wim H. (author)Aviation biofuels are promising to reduce carbon emissions in the aviation sector. However, emerging concerns over biofuels indicate a need for sustainability analyses that take into consideration the context around biofuel production. Here, we present a novel ex-ante sustainability analysis of production alternatives for aviation biofuel in...book chapter 2022

Kulshreshtha, Y. (author), Vardon, P.J. (author), Mota, Nelson (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Jonkers, H.M. (author)With rapid industrialisation and the increase in popularity of concrete and brick constructions, a decline in earth houses has been observed especially in the rural areas of India. A survey was carried out in five regions of India to understand the technical and social factors favouring/limiting the construction and everyday use of earth houses....book chapter 2019

(author)The water-resistance of cow-dung has made it a widely used stabiliser in traditional earthen structures in several Asian and African countries. Multiple studies have shown an improvement in water-resistance with the addition of cow-dung, but none provides insight into this behaviour. The present study investigates the water-resistance behaviour...journal article 2022

(author)In the One Health context, wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are central to safeguarding water resources. Nonetheless, many questions remain about their effectiveness in preventing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) dissemination. Most surveillance studies monitor the levels and removal of selected antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and mobile...journal article 2022

Calderon Franco, D. (author), Apoorva, Seeram (author), Medema, G.J. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Weissbrodt, D.G. (author)Wastewater treatment is challenged by the continuous emergence of chemical and biological contaminants. Disinfection, advanced oxidation, and activated carbon technologies are accessible in high-income countries to suppress them. Low-cost, easily implementable, and scalable solutions are needed for sanitation across regions. We studied the...journal article 2021

Prot, T.J.F. (author), Korving, L. (author), Dugulan, A.I. (author), Goubitz, K. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author)The presence of soluble iron and phosphorus in wastewater sludge can lead to vivianite scaling. This problem is not often reported in literature, most likely due to the difficult identification and quantification of this mineral. It is usually present as a hard and blue deposit that can also be brown or black depending on its composition and...journal article 2021

(author)Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is an advanced biofilm-based technology for wastewater treatment. Diffusion of substrates into the granules is a key aspect of this technology. Domestic wastewater contains soluble organic substrates of different sizes that could potentially diffuse into the granules. In this study, the relation between the...journal article 2022

van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Hao, Xiaodi (author), Wu, Yuanyuan (author)摘要： 好氧颗粒污泥技术具有占地面积小、能耗低、剩余污泥量少、抗冲击性强等优点，是<br/>一种可持续的污水处理技术。以北京某污水处理厂实际生活污水作为基质，在中试规模（有效容积<br/>为2.5 m3）反应器中进行好氧颗粒污泥培养，研究了颗粒污泥在低温条件下的稳定性。中试自夏季<br/>开始运行到次年春季结束，共计运行260 d。结果表明，采用我国实际低碳源市政污水可以培养出好<br/>氧颗粒污泥，污泥颗粒化程度可达94%，SVI5/SVI30为1.1 ~ 1.3。冬季低温会造成颗粒污泥的枝状结<br/>构增多、丝状菌生长，进而引起颗粒化比例略有下降，为80%~91%，污泥平均粒径降低，SVI5/SVI30升<br/>高至1.5 ~ 1.8。在冬季低温条件下，通过优化调控进水流量...journal article 2022

Le, Quan H. (author), Verheijen, Peter J.T. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Volcke, Eveline I.P. (author)This study deals with the application of data reconciliation to wastewater treatment processes which are subject to dynamic conditions and therefore do not reach a steady-state behaviour sensu stricto. The SHARON partial nitritation process, which is operated cyclically with alternating aerated and anoxic periods, is studied as an example....journal article 2022
