Challenge Greg and his team have a 3 cell system, one 6 acre lagoon and two 2 acre lagoons, that were becoming inundated with sludge. The ponds were about 30 years old, not aerated, and have never been dredged or treated to remove ...
Challenge A newly upgraded 500,000 gallon per day wastewater system has a large industry that produces biocides. Biocides are made to disinfect and kill bacteria, viruses, and germs making them toxic to wastewater ...
The U.S. Navy conducted formal testing on magnetic fuel conditioning technology using heavily aged #2 diesel fuel. The tests involved recirculating the fuel through a fuel polishing system. This integrated system combines mechanical filtration with magnetic fuel conditioning technology. Key results from the published Navy fuel analysis report are summarized ...

Abstract: One of the major costs associated with the operation of biological wastewater treatment is the handling and disposal of sludges generated primarily in the conversion of soluble organics as measured by BOD/COD into either carbon dioxide (aerobic) or methane (anaerobic), water and bacterial cells. Often times the sludge generated in either of these processes may be subsequently treated in ...
What Is Bio-remediation: Biological treatment and reliance on bacteria is not new or novel; it has played a central role in conventional waste treatment throughout the history of mankind. What is new however, is our growing understanding of the natural processes and how we can utilize bacteria for industrial, agricultural and residential applications in breaking down organic waste thereby ...
Location: Lee County Health Park, Fort Myers, FL Background: Health Park is a well-respected health facility in Fort Myers, FL that includes a scenic pond on the grounds. When this 1.5-acre oval pond became unbalanced, they needed a plan to return it to a healthy state. This 6-foot deep pond showed signs of excessive nutrient loading from lawn fertilizer run-off and the water was becoming ...

Location: Germany Background: Stephan is a well known high end breeder of freshwater Angelfish, Pterophyllum scalare, in Germany with over 35 years ...
Location: Ecological-Asia, Singapore Background: Exporters and trans-shippers of ornamental fish have always faced the problem of maintaining fish health and well being as fish are shipped around the globe in plastic bags. During transport, the water in these closed containers may become oxygen-depleted asphyxiating the fish or it may accumulate excessive carbon dioxide reducing pH to toxic ...
High density commercial aquaculture farming of Tiger Prawn, pacific while prawn (Vannamei), Tilapia or Basa Shrimp and/or fish fecal matter, as well as leftover feed, pollutes the water in Aquaculture ponds, contributing to high nitrate and organic waste. The polluted water results in hypereutrophication with large quantities of decaying dead algae and organic waste from fish and/or shrimp ...
Birds are dynamic creatures whose behaviors change significantly with the seasons. A site free of pest birds in spring may be overrun by migrating flocks in fall or by nesting colonies in summer. Effective bird management isn’t a one-time effort—it’s an ongoing strategy built around seasonal cycles and proactive measures. Year-round bird control relies on anticipating shifts in ...
Introduction Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are complex molecules found in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. They are crucial for bacterial cell structure, but also have significant implications in immunology, biotechnology, and medicine. LPS molecules are potent activators of the immune system and are involved in the inflammatory response, making them valuable in both research and ...
Upstream processing is a fundamental aspect of bioprocessing, particularly in fermentation. It encompasses the initial steps involved in the production of bioproducts, focusing on the preparation of microbial cultures and the optimization of growth conditions. As the demand for biopharmaceuticals, biofuels, and other bioproducts continues to rise, a deeper understanding of upstream processing in ...
Microorganisms have different growth requirements. When culturing them in the laboratory, it is essential to take note of these conditions because these are needed to be replicated in order to successfully grow microbial cultures in the laboratory. As mentioned in the previous article, one of the conditions needed to be taken into consideration is the oxygen requirement of the microorganisms. ...
Remediation methods, such as soil vapour extraction and in situ chemical oxidation are challenging in cold, low-permeability conditions, highlighting the need for alternative approaches. Using naturally occurring microorganisms to deplete hydrocarbons is attractive. However, it is challenging to repeatably execute this remediation technique successfully across multiple sites due to nuanced site ...

EHP is caused by a spore forming microsporidian, Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei. The disease is also known as hepatopancreatic microsporidiosisis (HPM). The spores are how the pathogen infects shrimp. When spores are ingested by consuming infected tissues (via cannibalism) and/or feces or indirectly through the water, they infect specific types of cells in the hepatopancreas and intestinal tract ...
Cabo San Lucus Mexico is known for its deep-water fishing, beautiful beaches, luxurious hotels, and as an overall vacation destination for travelers from around the world. About one and a quarter miles north of the town is a golf course, located next to the town's municipal wastewater lagoons. The location of the golf course was specifically to utilize treated lagoon water for irrigation. The ...
