  1. 1. Experimental Study of Flow Fields in Moving Bed Biofilm Reactors

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Shea Nee Chew; [2023]
    Keywords : Moving bed biofilm reactors; Biofilm carriers; Mechanical mixing; Mixer configurations; Carrier mixing; Biofilmsreaktorer med rörlig bädd; Biofilmsbärare; Mekanisk blandning; Blandarkonfigurationer; Bärarblandning;

    Abstract : With the rise in global energy prices, as well as energy consumption being the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions, biofilm-based systems utilized for wastewater treatment, such as moving bed biofilm reactors (MBBRs), have grown in popularity for their lower energy consumption compared to conventional activated sludge processes. However, this technology requires large amounts of energy to constantly distribute and suspend its biofilm carrier within the reactor by either aerators or mechanical mixers. READ MORE

  3. 2. Pilot scale partial denitratation coupled anammox: an evaluation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Tobias Ellingsen; [2022]
    Keywords : mainstream anammox; partial denitratation anammox; partial denitrification anammox; PDA; nitrite inhibition; anammox; water and environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : På avloppsreningsverk (ARV) som tillämpar kväverening är den vanligaste tekniken nitrifikation följt av denitrifikation. Denna process kräver omfattande luftning, vilket både är elintensivt och minskar mängden biogas som kan utvinnas. READ MORE

  4. 3. Nitrogen removal in MBBR : Investigating the effect of temperature

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Rediet Tezera Tafese; [2022]
    Keywords : Wastewater; Nitrogen removal; Nitrification; Denitrification; MBBR; Cold temperature; Avloppsvatten; Kväverening; Nitrifikation; Denitrifikation; MBBR; låg temperatur;

    Abstract : The project undertaken in this thesis was performed at MittSverige Vatten och Avfall (MSVA) in cooperation with the Swedish Environmental Research Institute (IVL). The effect of temperature on nitrogen removal using moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) was controlled using two separate lines by investigating the influence of temperature on nitrification, pre-denitrification, and post- denitrification in a pilot plant scale.

  5. 4. Effect of biofilm thickness and carrier type on the performance of anaerobic moving bed biofilm reactors (AnMBBRs)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Astrid Hermansson; [2020]
    Keywords : Anaerobic; wastewater treatment; AnMBBR; MBBR; biofilm thickness; carrier; organic removal; water engineering; environmental engineering; avloppsteknik; vattenförsörjningsteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The anaerobic moving bed biofilm reactor (AnMBBR) is a wastewater treatment process that has shown effective for the treatment of industrial wastewaters. As the AnMBBR is a biofilm process, nutrients, products, etc. must be transported through the biofilm. The thickness of the biofilm may, therefore, impact the process. READ MORE

  6. 5. Volatile fatty acid production and application as external carbon source for denitrification

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Cora Michelle Döhler; [2020]
    Keywords : VFAs; co-fermentation; primary sludge; food waste; denitrification; external carbon source; MBBR;

    Abstract : By rethinking wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) as resource recovery facilities, it is possible to de- velop the next generation of WWTPs. Moreover, it allows to accomplish environmental goals, such as reducing the CO2 footprint, and comply with increasing effluent standards regarding the concentration of nitrogen in a more sustainable way.
