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

2. Intensification of the biogas process by improved process monitoring and biomass retention
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
3. Anaerobic Digestion – Microbial Ecology, Improved Operational Design and Process Monitoring
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
4. Dynamic Modeling of Nitrifying Trickling Filters
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
5. Perspectives on Biofilms for the Removal of Organic Micropollutants in Wastewater
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
