The interest in high-rate anaerobic (pre-) treatment of sewage using UASB reactors is
steadily growing since its introduction in the mid-1980s. Today there are hundreds of full …

Nowadays, carbon emission and therefore carbon footprint of water utilities is an important
issue. In this respect, we should consider the opportunities to reduce carbon footprint for …

In many Countries, small communities are required to treat wastewater discharges to
increasing standards of lesser environmental impacts, but must achieve that goal at locally …

The influence of temperature in a range of 15–5° C, fluctuations in soluble chemical oxygen
demand (sCOD) and suspended solids (SS) of the influent and also long hydraulic retention …

Today, the tide has turned so strongly in favour of renewables that for the first time since the
dawn of the fossil fuel era over two hundred years ago renewable energy technologies have …

Rural domestic wastewater (RDW), one of the non-point pollution sources, has become a
significant object related to sanitation improvement and water pollution control in Taihu Lake …

The aim of this research was to study the on-site anaerobic treatment of a medium-strength
residential wastewater in a pilot-scale up-flow septic tank (UST). The effects of three different …

Two community onsite UASB-septic tanks namely R1 and R2 were operated under two
different HRT (2 days for R1 and 4 days for R2) in parallel over a year and monitored over …

In this study, the performance of a living machine (LM) system was evaluated for use in the
treatment of black water collected from septic tanks with hydraulic retention times (HRTs) of …

The treatment of high strength sewage was investigated in a one-stage upflow anaerobic
sludge blanket (UASB) reactor and a UASB-digester system. The one-stage UASB reactor …
