  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. Intensification of the biogas process by improved process monitoring and biomass retention

    Författare :Lovisa Björnsson; Miljö- och energisystem; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; BOD; hydrogen; on-line; monitoring; biofilm; anaerobic digestion; biogas; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The utilisation of energy in the form of biogas is one of the environmentally sound alternatives available using renewable energy sources. Biogas is formed by anaerobic degradation of organic material, the main consistuent being energy-rich methane. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Anaerobic Digestion – Microbial Ecology, Improved Operational Design and Process Monitoring

    Författare :Marika Murto; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; monitoring; UASB; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; methanogens; fluorescence in situ hybridisation; FISH; co-digestion; biogas; biofilm; aqueous two phase system; anaerobic digestion; 16S rDNA; alkalinity;

    Sammanfattning : The implementation of anaerobic digestion is important in the concept of sustainable development, especially regarding the environmental benefits. Biogas is produced when organic matter is degraded by microorganisms under oxygen-free (anaerobic) conditions. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Dynamic Modeling of Nitrifying Trickling Filters

    Författare :Torsten Wik; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Distributed parameter system; Trickling Filter; Biofilm; Process Model; Experiments; Wastewater; Dynamics;

    Sammanfattning : Trickling filters, one kind of biofilm reactors, for removal of nitrogen in municipal wastewater are presently increasing in number in Sweden. For improved control and operation of wastewater treatment plants, where such reactors are used, dynamic models describing their behavior are necessary. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Perspectives on Biofilms for the Removal of Organic Micropollutants in Wastewater

    Författare :Ellen Edefell; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wastewater treatment; wastewater; biofilm; ozonation; activated carbon; powdered activated carbon; granular activated carbon; biological degradation; Moving bed biofilm reactor;

    Sammanfattning : The use of biofilms to improve the removal of organic micropollutants in waste¬water treatment plants (WWTPs) has been investigated. The work is divided into two parts. In the first part, the use of biofilms for the biological degradation of micro¬pollutants was investigated. LÄS MER
