Water companies, water authorities or publicly-owned treatment works (POTW) need to have some knowledge of the composition of the wastes they it receive. In addition to testing for ammonia and BOD or COD levels, treatment works can license industrial discharges on the basis of concentrations of some of the known toxic compounds. 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 ...

Municipal Solid Waste (also known as “household waste") is a waste stream that consists of everyday consumable items that are discarded. 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 ...

Waste Type: Complex alcohols. 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. The objective was then to determine how much waste could be added to an activated sludge process before toxic impacts would be ...

Measurement of oxygen uptake rates in activated sludge processes is essential to their satisfactory operation. Traditionally, oxygen uptake rates (OUR) have been determined by using a dissolved oxygen probe to measure the change in dissolved oxygen in a BOD bottle. While this method is rapid, it provides only a snapshot of the pattern of oxygen uptake in a treatment plant. Much more can be learned about the operation of a treatment plant by measuring the oxygen uptake rate over a period ranging from one to four ...

Respirometer based on gasometric method for wastewater analysis. In any biological wastewater treatment system, there is a need to define, assess and understand the plant’s performance with regard to the removal of certain contaminants and the response of bacterial activity to inhibitory compounds of interest. 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 ...

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. It has a lower calorific value than solid recovered fuel (SRF). RDF is used in combined heat and power facilities. Solid recovered fuel (SRF) is produced from commercial waste and includes paper, card, wood, textiles and plastic. It is typically shredded to < 30mm and treated to reduce the moisture content. Solid recovered fuel has a high calorific value and ...

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 environments, the biodegradability is usually determined by measuring ...

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 ...

Method: An industry was discharging wastewater to a municipal sewer and was suspected of causing problems with treatment at the plant. 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. (Res. J. of Water Poll. Control Fed., p. 1711, 1989). Results of the oxygen uptake measurements and kinetic analyses are ...

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 second group of readily ...

ByChallenge Technology based in  Springdale, ARKANSAS (USA)
Test Setup: 40 and 60 mL of wastewater were added to individual respirometer flasks each containing nutrient/mineral/buffer medium to form two different dilutions. TCMP was added to inhibit nitrification. 25 mL of seed from a laboratory scale reactor was added to each test reactor. Oxygen uptake was monitored using a CHALLENGE AER-200 respirometer for five days. A second dose of 40 and 60 mL of leachate sample was then added to each reactor and oxygen uptake was measured for another 5 ...

OUR measurements were made for two waste streams from a chemical production plant. 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. Oxidation of a second group of constituents causes the OUR to increase through about 3.5 hours of incubation. This increase in OUR is caused by growth of microorganisms during the oxidation reaction. ...

Byo-Gon PX-109® Organic is an environmentally friendly solution designed for restaurants to address grease trap and drain line challenges. This product utilizes natural biological processes to reduce organic buildup and trap deposition, effectively managing fouling and odor issues. It enhances metabolic activity in existing bacterial and enzymatic systems, accelerating the breakdown of fats, oils, and grease (FOG). Upon application, microbial cultures proliferate, forming a protective film that facilitates ...

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). We unfold a wide range of previously unknown ultrasonic variants and thus arrive at new methods for the intensification of surface processes: The desorption of ...

The historical use of Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF), which contains PFAS, has led to possible implications to human health and the environment. AFFF is used in a variety of situations such as emergency response, fire suppression systems, and fire-fighting training. Over time, AFFF entered our environment and ultimately impacts airports, fire training sites, military bases, and more. As regulations are promulgated to address PFAS contamination, the airport community is facing pressure to begin the process to ...

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 ...
