    Author : Sofia Mile; [2023]
    Keywords : Chemical Engineering; Water and Environmental Engineering; Water Treatment; Coagulation Flocculation; Sludge Recirculation; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Drinking water is crucial in our everyday life. As with many other processes, it is important to produce water of drinking quality in a sustainable manner. This can occur by e.g. READ MORE

  2. 2. Phosphorous Precipitation in Source Separated Greywater for Direct Environmental Release.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Ashley Hall; [2022]
    Keywords : water; wastewater; source separation; greywater; phosphorous; precipitation; utfällning; Chemical Engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : As our understanding of the impact humans have on the environment changes, so too do the mitigation strategies we employ to prevent it. One major source of anthropogenic pollution is wastewater effluent. READ MORE

  3. 3. Removal Characteristics of Fibrous and Particulate Microplastics : A Study of the Effectiveness of Coagulation-Flocculation- Sedimentation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Amrith Kumar; [2022]
    Keywords : Coagulation; flocculation; jar test; microplastics; sedimentation; water treatment; Burktest; flockning; koagulering; mikroplaster; sedimentering; vattenrening;

    Abstract : The rapid proliferation of microplastics (MPs) over the last few decades have raised alarms about the major environmental and health impacts posed by this anthropogenic source. The widespread propagation and transport of MP particles in water sources have accelerated the need to study the eco- toxicological impacts as well as the efficacy of various removal mechanisms from these critical water sources.

  4. 4. GAC filter Design Criteria for Wastewater Treatment for Removal of Organic Micropollutants – A Literature Review

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Bhargav Reddy Elavarthi; [2021]
    Keywords : micropollutants; activated carbon filtration; empty bed contact time EBCT ; pharmaceuticals; breakthrough curves; adsorption; PFOS; carbon use; water and environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) is nowadays suggested as a fourth (quaternary) treatment step at municipal wastewater treatment plants to remove certain chemicals and particularly organic micropollutants (OMPs). This work investigated the different factors that affect the performance of the GAC filter for the removal of micropollutants in a municipal wastewater treatment plant. READ MORE

  5. 5. Modelling control strategies for chemical phosphorus removal at Tivoli wastewater treatment plant

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Sara Rosendahl; [2021]
    Keywords : Wastewater treatment plant; phosphorus precipitation; control strategy; feedforward; feedback; ASM2d and primary clarifier model.;

    Abstract : Wastewater compose an environmental risk as it contains high levels of nutrients, including phosphorus. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) reduce phosphorus by using coagulants that precipitate soluble phosphate into metal phosphate, which is separated by settling. READ MORE
