The FAST (fixed activated sludge treatment) process uses a combination of attached and suspended growth organisms in an aerobic, packed-bed bioreactor. This combination provides the stability of submerged, fixed-film media and the effectiveness of activated sludge treatment. ...
Biosorption of copper, chromium, lead and cadmium in an up-flow packed-bed bioreactor with biosorbents [sanitary sewage sludge (SS), powdered coconut shell (PCS)] was conducted in a search for solutions to the environmental problem caused by heavy metals. ...
Microbial sulphate reduction was carried out in an anaerobic up-flow packed bed bioreactor (R1) using ethanol as carbon source. More than 90% of Total Equivalent Sulphate (TES) present in the effluent was reduced to sulphide at HRT of 17 h in the tested loading range of ...
In this paper, poly (Ε-caprolactone) (PCL) was used as carbon source and biofilm supporter in a fixed bed bioreactor to biologically remove nitrate from drinking water. The experimental results showed that denitrifying microorganisms could easily adapt to PCL as carbon source and attach to the surface of PCL granules. ...
The FAST process employs a combination of attached and suspended bio-growth in an aerobic, packed bed bioreactor and used successfully in municipal, industrial, marine, commercial and residential settings for the past 35 years. ...
