  1. 31. Regulation and role of epiphytic nitrification and denitrification in macrophyte-dominated systems

    Författare :Peder Eriksson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; marine biology; Hydrobiology; submerged; emergent; epiphyton; bacteria; nitrate; wetland; nitrogen; littoral; aquatic ecology; limnology; Marinbiologi; limnologi; akvatisk ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis examines mechanisms regulating bacterial nitrification and denitrification in attached microbial communities on surfaces of aquatic macrophytes. It also evaluates the role of epiphytic nitrification and denitrification for the nitrogen turnover in macrophyte-dominated nutrient-rich freshwaters. LÄS MER

  2. 32. Treatment of domestic wastewater using microbiological processes and hydroponics in Sweden

    Författare :Anna Norström; Gunnel Dalhammar; Jörgen Hanaeus; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microbiology; biological; hydroponics; microbial composition; nitrogen; organic matter; phosphorus; small scale; theoretical energy requirements; wastewater treatment.; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Mikrobiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Conventional end-of-pipe solutions for wastewater treatment have been criticized from a sustainable view-point, in particular regarding recycling of nutrients. The integration of hydroponic cultivation into a wastewater treatment system has been proposed as an ecological alternative, where nutrients can be removed from the wastewater through plant uptake; however, cultivation of plants in a temperate climate, such as Sweden, implies that additional energy is needed during the colder and darker period.

  3. 33. Modelling and control of activated sludge processes with nitrogen removal

    Författare :Pär Samuelsson; Bengt Carlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automatic Control; Reglerteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Stricter legislations on nitrogen removal together with increasing wastewater loads have successively increased the need for optimization and control of activated sludge processes. The aim of this thesis is primarily to propose and illustrate methods for modelling and control of activated sludge processes, and thus possibly improve process efficiency. LÄS MER

  4. 34. Biofilms in Nitrogen Removal - Bacterial Population Dynamics and Spatial Distribution

    Författare :Robert Almstrand; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; AOB; NOB; biofilms; image analysis; FISH; Nitrosomonas; population dynamics; spatial distribution;

    Sammanfattning : Efficient nitrogen removal at wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is necessary to avoid eutrophication of recipient waters. The most commonly used approach consists of aerobic nitrification and subsequent anaerobic denitrification resulting in the release of dinitrogen gas into the atmosphere. LÄS MER

  5. 35. Microalgal solutions in Nordic conditions : industries transition toward resource recovery?

    Författare :Lina Mattsson; Catherine Legrand; Elin Lindehoff; Hanna Farnelid; Kristian Spilling; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microalgae; algal cultivation; polyculture; resource recovery; seasonal variation; industrial partnership; CO2 mitigation; nitrogen removal; community composition; Ecology; Ekologi; Environmental Biotechnology; Miljöbioteknik; Miljövetenskap; Environmental Science; Akvatisk ekologi; Aquatic Ecology; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

    Sammanfattning : Microalgal solutions can through photosynthesis recover greenhouse gas (CO2) and nutrients from industrial waste, reducing climate footprint and eutrophication. An added value to the process is algal biomass containing lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates with commercial potential for biofuel, feed, and fertilizer. LÄS MER
