1. 1. 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. 2. Microbial Phosphorus Removal in Waste Stabilisation Pond Wastewater Treatment Systems

   Författare :Lydia Ambakisye Mbwele; Gunnel Dalhmmar; Ingrid Faye; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wastewater treatment; waste stabilisation ponds; activated sludge; biological phosphorus removal; tropical climate; A.hydrophylla; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Waste Stabilisation Ponds (WSPs) are characterised by low phosphorus (P) removal capacity. Heterotrophic bacteria are principal microbial agents in WSPs in addition to algae. LÄS MER

4. 3. Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal -Processes, Competing Substances and Tools for Operation of Wastewater Treatment Plants

   Författare :Eva Tykesson; Vattenförsörjnings- och avloppsteknik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Miljöteknik; pollution control; Environmental technology; chemical precipitation; glycogen accumulating organisms; polyphosphate accumulating organisms; wastewater treatment; biological phosphorus removal; kontroll av utsläpp;

   Sammanfattning : The idea of phosphorus removal at wastewater treatment plants is to transfer dissolved phosphorus into a solid phase. Together with the rest of the produced sludge it is then removed from the water, resulting in a decreased concentration of phosphorus in the effluent and the prevention of the eutrophication in the recipient.

5. 4. Characterization of Bacterial Biofilms for Wastewater Treatment

   Författare :Sofia Andersson; Gunnel Dalhammar; Bo Mattiasson; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biofilm; extracellular polymeric substances; exopolysaccharides; interspecies interactions; wastewater treatment; denitrification; phosphorus removal; Microbiology; Mikrobiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Research performed at the Division of Environmental Microbiology has over the last years resulted in the isolation of possible bacterial key-organisms with efficient nutrient removal properties (Comamonas denitrificans, Brachymonas denitrificans, Aeromonas hydrophila). Effective use of these organisms for enhanced nutrient removal in wastewater treatment applications requires the strains to be retained, to proliferate and to maintain biological activity within theprocess.
