The high organic material contained in wastewater released into the environment asresults of various sources of human activities, such as phosphorus, can cause eutrophication. Thestruvite crystallization in an aerated fluidized bed reactor is one of the methods which able toimprove the efficiency of phosphorus removal. In this study, a mixture of synthetic wastewaters andthe MgCl2 solution was treated in a fluidized bed reactor equipped with aeration to produce thestruvite which can be utilized as a slow release fertilizer. Subsequently, the effect of aeration atdifference influent flow rate was investigated to correlate with the changing of phosphorusconcentration in the reactor effluent. The experiments were conducted for 240 minutes with thevariation of aeration are 0.5 L/min to 1.5 L/min; variation of influent flow rate of syntheticwastewater is 150 ml/min to 350 ml/min, with a constant influent flow rate of MgCl2 solution is 50ml/min. These solutions were maintained at the condition of pH 9. The results showed that theoptimal efficiency of phosphor removal which accounted for 82.5% occurred when the aeration rateof 1.5 L/min in the influent flow rate of 150 ml/min. From these findings, it is revealed that theefficiency of P removal in wastewater is obtained by a crystallization process which utilizing anaerated fluidized bed reactor and by increasing the aeration rate and the reactants contact time.

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a powerful tool in order to identify sustainable alternatives in process engineering. In this work, the LCA of two fluoride effluent treatment processes in the aluminium trifluoride (AlF3) manufacture has been carried out. Two scenarios have been considered: (i) chemical precipitation for fluoride removal, leading to a water-rich sludge, which has poor dewatering properties and therefore, must be managed in inert waste landfills, and (ii) the recovery of fluoride by crystallization as synthetic fluorite to be reused in the hydrogen fluoride (HF) manufacture. The LCA software SimaPro 7 (PRé Consultants BV) makes it possible to compare in terms of different methodologies like Eco-Indicator 99 and CML 2 Baseline 2000. Environmental metrics developed by IChemE were included in the software. The crystallization process in a Fluidized Bed Reactor allows reductions in the range of 20-40% for most metrics because of the recycled synthetic fluorite to the HF manufacture.
