  1. 1. New Dimensions of Moving Bed Biofilm Carriers : Influence of biofilm thickness and control possibilities

    Författare :MARIA PICULELL; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; biofilm control; biofilm thickness; biological wastewater treatment; carrier; moving bed biofilm reactor; nitrification; nitritation; organic removal; process optimization; scaling; suspended growth;

    Sammanfattning : The moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) is a biological wastewater treatment process in which microorganisms grow as biofilms on suspended carriers. Conventionally, MBBRs are mainly designed and optimized based on the carrier surface area, neglecting the dynamic relationship between carrier design, reactor operation and biofilm characteristics, such as biofilm thickness and the composition of the microbial community.

  3. 2. Investigation of a Biofilm Reactor Model with Suspended Biomass

    Författare :Alma Masic; Matematik LTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; wall attachment; suspended growth; substrate removal; reactor; biofilm; CSTR; mathematical model; MBBR; nitrification; optimization;

    Sammanfattning : Biofilms are compact, sessile microbial communities that attach to surfaces in aqueous environments. In wastewater treatment, they are especially important for removal of phosphorus and nitrogen, which, if released into a receiving water body, can cause severe eutrophication. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Modelling Aspects of Wastewater Treatment Processes

    Författare :Ulf Jeppsson; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automatiska system; control engineering; robotics; Automation; thickening; solids flux; simulation; secondary clarifier; protozoa; predators; parameter estimation; model reduction; model identifiability; mathematical modelling; clarification; biofilm; activated sludge; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Wastewater treatment processes are inherently dynamic because of the large variations in the influent wastewater flow rate, concentration and composition. Moreover, these variations are to a large extent not possible to control. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Macromolecular Matchmaking : Mechanisms and Biology of Bacterial Small RNAs

    Författare :Erik Holmqvist; E. Gerhart H. Wagner; Udo Bläsi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Small RNA; sRNA; non-coding RNA; antisense; gene regulation; post-transcriptional regulation; translational control; outer membrane protein; OmpA; MicA; biofilm; flagella; curli; bistability; Lrp; MicF; CsgD; FlgM; OmrA; OmrB; Biologi med inriktning mot mikrobiologi; Biology with specialization in Microbiology;

    Sammanfattning : Cells sense the properties of the surrounding environment and convert this information into changes in gene expression. Bacteria are, in contrast to many multi-cellular eukaryotes, remarkable in their ability to cope with rapid environmental changes and to endure harsh and extreme milieus. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Fault detection in water resource recovery facilities

    Författare :Oscar Samuelsson; Bengt Carlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot reglerteknik; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Automatic Control;

    Sammanfattning : Reliable sensor values are important for resource-efficient control and operations of wastewater treatment processes. Automatic fault detection methods are necessary to monitor the increasing amount of data produced in any modern water resource recovery facility (WRRF). LÄS MER
