  4. 19. Material Flow Analysis of Phosphorous and Organic Matter in Domestic Wastewater and Food Waste in Sông Công Town, Vietnam

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för bygg- energi- och miljöteknik

    Author : Olli Sammalisto; Zanna Sefane; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Vietnam’s fast economic growth has to a large extent been achieved on the expense of a rapid deterioration of the natural environment, including eutrophication of local water sources. Proper planning is needed to move towards a sustainable wastewater management and one recognized tool for such planning is material flow analysis (MFA). READ MORE

  5. 20. Evaluation of the suppressive effect of intermittent aeration on nitrite-oxidising bacteria in a mainstream nitritation-anammox process

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Amanda Okhravi; [2015]
    Keywords : Activity tests; anammox; AOB; Manammox; nitritation; NOB; OUR.; Aktivitetstester; anammox; AOB; Manammox; nitritation; NOB; OUR.;

    Abstract : An alternative to conventional removal of nitrogen through autotrophic nitrification and heterotrophic denitrification is autotrophic nitritation-anammox. The anammox bacteria oxidise ammonium directly to nitrogen gas with nitrite as an electron acceptor. READ MORE
