Reed Bed

In this paper, a feasible municipal wastewater treatment process, using the upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) or the anaerobic baffled reactor (ABR) as an anaerobic pre-treatment system, and the reed bed or the stabilization pond with supporting media as a post-treatment system, is presented and discussed. Results obtained in pilot- and full-scale treatment plants clearly reveal that the anaerobic treatment is indeed a very attractive option for municipal wastewater pre-treatment at temperatures exceeding 20C in tropical and subtropical regions. The UASB system has been commonly employed as an anaerobic pre-treatment system. The ABR provides another potential for the anaerobic pre-treatment. The effluents from the anaerobic treatment system should be post-treated to meet discharge standards. Because of the advantages of the reed bed system when it is employed for tertiary treatment, this system could be considered as a post-treatment system. Another cost-effective system, the stabilization pond packed with attached-growth media, is also a potential post-treatment system.

Main Components

The Braunschweig wastewater land treatment system as the largest in Western Germany serves a population of about 270.000 and has an annual flow of around 22 Mio m3. The whole treatment process consists of three main components : a pre-treatment plant as an activated sludge process, a sprinkler irrigation area of 3.000 ha of farmland and an old sewage farm of 200 ha with surface flooding. This paper briefly summarizes the experiences with management and operation of the system, the treatment results with reference to environmental impact, development of agriculture and some financial aspects.

This paper describes a pilot plant study on the performance of a hybrid small municipal wastewater treatment system consisting of a jet mixed separator(JMS) and upgraded RBC. The JMS was used as a pre-treatment of the RBC instead of the primary clarifier. The treatment capacity of the system was fixed at 100 m3/d, corresponding to the hydraulic loading to the RBC of 117 L/m2/d. The effluent from the grid chamber at a municipal wastewater treatment plant was fed into the hybrid system. The RBC was operated using the electric power produced by a solar electric generation panel with a surface area of 8 m2 under enough sunlight. In order to reduce the organic loading to the RBC, polyaluminium chloride(PAC) was added to the JMS influent to remove the colloidal and suspended organic particles. At the operational condition where the A1 dosage and hydraulic retention time of the JMS were fixed at 5 g/m3 and 45 min., respectively, the average effluent water quality of hybrid system was as follows: TOC=8 g/m3, Total BOD=8 g/m3, SS=8 g/m3, Turbidity=6 TU, NH4-N=7 g/m3, T-P=0.5 g/m3. In this operating condition, electric power consumption of the RBC for treating unit volume of wastewater is only 0.07 KWH/m3.

AbstractBioethanol from abundant and inexpensive agricultural and industrial wastes possesses the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Bioethanol as renewable fuel addresses elevated production costs, as well as food security concerns. Although technical advancements in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation have reduced the cost of production, one major drawback of this technology is that the pre-treatment process creates environmental stressors inhibitory to fermentative yeasts subsequently reducing bioethanol productivity. Robust fermentative yeasts with extreme stress tolerance remain limited. This review presents the potential of dung beetles from pristine and unexplored environments as an attractive source of extremophilic bioethanolic yeasts. Dung beetles survive on a recalcitrant lignocellulose-rich diet suggesting the presence of symbiotic yeasts with a cellulolytic potential. Dung beetles inhabiting extreme stress environments have the potential to harbour yeasts with the ability to withstand inhibitory environmental stresses typically associated with bioethanol production. The review further discusses established methods used to isolate bioethanolic yeasts, from dung beetles.

With decades of studies on cellulose bioconversion, cellulases have been playing an important role in producing fermentable sugars from lignocellulosic biomass. Copious microorganisms that are able to degrade cellulose have been isolated and identified. The present study has been undertaken to isolate and screen the cellulase producing bacteria from soils of agrowaste field. Cellulase production has been qualitatively analyzed in carboxy methylcellulose (CMC) agar medium after congo red staining and NaCl treatment by interpretation with zones around the potent colonies. Out of the seven isolates, only two showed cellulase production. The morphogical and molecular characterization revealed its identity as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The potential of organisms for bioethanol production has been investigated using two substrates, namely, paper and leaves by subjecting with a pre-treatment process using acid hydrolysis to remove lignin which acts as physical barrier to cellulolytic enzymes. Ethanolic fermentation was done using Saccharomyces cerevisiae for 24-48 h and then the bioethanol produced was qualitatively proved by iodoform assay. These finding proves that ethanol can be made from the agricultural waste and the process is recommended as a means of generating wealth from waste.

The Relationship

Waste management is a crucial process to keep the environment in wholesome conditions. The environmental impact of solid waste and wastewater is reduced through construction of appropriate disposal installations. The objective of wastewater treatment in biological reactors is to control the process of biomaterial growth by aerating the sewage content. The process is complex, as depending on a plenty of parameters. In the last decades an effective numerical model, called the Activated Sludge Model (ASM), has been proposed for describing the biological process. The ASM is implemented in the Benchmark Simulation Model (BSM) that simulates the whole wastewater treatment process. The most important parameters in ASM are the kinetic and stoichiometric coefficients. The former describes rate-concentration dependence. The latter characterises the relationship between the components of chemical reactions taking place in the cleaning process. Above parameters are determined by on-site calibration and their importance is relevant during the development of numeric models. This paper aims to examine the influence of kinetic and stoichiometric parameters on the wastewater treatment process of a plant in Płaszów, Kraków. The analysis is carried out by a sample-based numerical procedure. It highlights the ASM parameters playing a major role in the treatment process. Results obtained from the analysis are important for future validation and optimisation processes.
