The same materials and some other biodegradable waists (agricultural residues, sewage sludge, etc.) are also used in biogas plants, where the fermentation process must be carefully monitored, in particular, by the determining the certain organic acids. The present method allows determination of some important organic acids like acetic, lactic, butyric, propionic, and formic in feedstuff additives, silage, haylage and in different biodegradable materials of biogas plants. Some ...

The fingerprint for Waste 1 indicated the presence of three major groups of organic constituents. The first group of readily biodegradable organic constituents is oxidized at maximum kinetic rate through about one hour of contact. ...

A pharmaceutical company was interested in knowing whether a specific component, MCB, inhibited the biodegradation of other wastewater constituents. A series of respirometer tests was set up using identical mixtures of wastewater and return activated sludge (RAS) plus varying amounts of MCB. The OUR fingerprint of this wastewater includes a first peak of about 500 mg/L-hr within the first hour of contact that represents the oxidation of highly-biodegradable organic constituents. A ...

Instrument for biodegradability analyses. The degradation of biodegradable polymers and biodegradable plastics crucially depends on the environments they may end up in, such as soil, fresh or marine water, landfill or composting site. Owing to the great variations in natural conditions, several tests are needed to determine the fate of a polymer material in real life and to study its biodegradability in different environments. In aerobic ...

Objective: Certain constituents of the test waste were know to be biodegradable but were suspected of being toxic to aerobic biological processes when present in high concentrations. ...

Large agricultural processors install AD plant to generate revenue and dispose of biodegradable waste, which is usually a single ...

The maximum respiration rate is also closely linked to the Critical Oxygen Concentration point, that is, the point at which diffusion over the bacterial cell walls ceases and therefore biodegradation is significantly ...

Fruit and vegetable wastewater is nontoxic and biodegradable, but has very high concentrations of BOD and TSS. Wastewater in meat, poultry and fish processing facilities contain high amounts of fat, oil and grease (FOG). ...
BySalsnes Filter based in Namsos, NORWAY
Samples of the industrial wastewater were collected and oxygen uptake for four dilutions was measured using a CHALLENGE AER-200 aerobic/anaerobic respirometer system. Biodegradation kinetic coefficients were determined using the method described by Dang, et. al. ...

Refuse derived fuel (RDF)is made from residual Municipal Solid Waste and includes biodegradable waste products such as paper and card as well as plastics. ...

If industrial wastewater entering a treatment works contains toxic components the rate of biodegradation will be inhibited or stop completely. This can result in failed consents and will certainly give rise to operational problems. ...
ByStrathkelvin Instruments Limited based in North Lanarkshire, UNITED KINGDOM
The resulting pattern of oxygen uptake rate can be used to assess biodegradation patterns, to determine the impact of various wastes on treatment plant performance, and to provide a short-term measure of ...

The execution of batch activity tests can be useful to study the biodegradability of a given wastewater stream, determine the stoichiometric and kinetic parameters involved in the conversion of a specific compound, study the potential interactions (e.g. symbiosis and competition) between microbial populations and assess the potential toxic effects of certain wastewater steams and / or compounds. ...

Persistent organic pollutants that can usually only be treated with expensive chemical processes, e.g. in landfill leachate, are changed in their chemical structure by ultrasonic so that they become biodegradable. Thus, even difficult wastewaters can now be fed to universal and economically advantageous biological treatment (example: tributyltin, TBT). ...
ByUltrawaves Wasser & Umwelttechnologien GmbH based in Hamburg, GERMANY
However, it is recognised that very many non-regulated toxic materials still enter the treatment works and reduce the efficiency of biodegradation, and may cause toxic shock. The way is now open for more widespread use of direct toxicity tests as a basis for toxicity-based consents. ...
ByStrathkelvin Instruments Limited based in North Lanarkshire, UNITED KINGDOM
This general residual waste is normally put into a black bag or bin and contains a mixture of wet and dry recyclables, organic, inorganic and biodegradable materials. This includes food waste, containers, cans, cartons, product packaging, newspapers and ...

Helping others clean up the earth by clearing up brownfield remediation odors. Helping others clean up the earth by clearing up brownfield remediation odors. Brownfield remediation consists of removing large amounts of soil that have been saturated with tar, oil or other contaminating substances. Not only dangerous to handle, the disturbed soil is often infused with very unpleasant and in some cases potentially nauseous ...
ByEcosorb by OMI Industries based in Palatine, ILLINOIS (USA)
Test Setup: A series of dilutions consisting of 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, and 175 mL of test wastewater were added to respective 500 mL respirometer flasks along with nutrients, minerals, and buffers. TCMP was added to eliminate interference from nitrification. Oxygen uptake was measured over a five-day test period using a CHALLENGE AER-200 ...

Postoperative bacterial endophthalmitis is a rare but devastating complication that can occur following ocular surgery.1 Without proper intervention, endophthalmitis can cause irreversible damage to structures within the retina resulting in a loss of vision.2 This inflammatory condition affecting the intraocular cavities is typically caused by a bacterial or fungal infection, with the most common causative agents including coagulase-negative staphylococci, Staphylococcus aureus, streptococci and other ...
