Removal of Organic Micro-pollutants Present in the Effluent of Wastewater Treatment Plant by Zeolite Granules

Zeolites can be used for the adsorption of organic micropollutants (OMPs) from water. In this research, the potential applications of zeolite granules for OMP removal in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) were discovered. The adsorption of 18 target OMPs by zeolite granules was fully studied in batch and column experiments. The adsorption...

Modelling the AB-process to implement cold CANON

A model describing simultaneous growth and adsorption of COD in the A-stage, using a limited set of variables, has been developed. The agreement between the real data and the simulations is remarkably good for both steady-state conditions and dynamic simulations mimicking the seasonality of one whole year of operation of the A-stage in Dokhaven....

Fouling modification during pretreatment for dead-end ultrafiltration of wwtp effluent: Fractionation in relation to filterability and foulants

A proved technique to upgrade (wastewater treatment plant) wwtp effluent to improved water quality is dead-end ultrafiltration (UF). Although the use of UF for upgrading wwtp effluent results in an excellent basic water quality, this technique faces problems due to membrane fouling. Especially particles in the size range between 0.1 and 0.45 @m ...
