  1. 1. Selected PFAS in the water treatment at the waste-to-energy plant in Umeå : Investigating concentration and composition of selected PFAS in different water treatment steps

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Amanda Carlund; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The present study investigated the changes in concentration and composition of five selected PFAS substances in the water treatment at the waste-to-energy plant in Umeå. The five PFAS were PFHxA, PFHpA, PFOA, PFHxS and PFOS. As PFAS exists in a variety of consumer products, they will to some extent end up in waste incineration. READ MORE

  3. 2. IMPLEMENTATION OF NITROGEN RECOVERY AT WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTS TO COMPLEMENT ARTIFICIAL FERTILISER PRODUCTION : An investigation of the nitrogen recovery potential, energy consumption and environmental impacts at Kungsängens wastewater treatment plant in Västerås, Sweden

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Cassandra Kestran; Olivia Larsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Ammonia stripping; Eutrophication; Fertiliser production; Gas permeable membrane; Haber-Bosch; Nitrogen management; Nitrogen recovery technologies; Nitrogen removal; Reject water;

    Abstract : As Kungsängens wastewater treatment plant is considering a move, it opens up a possibility to implement nitrogen recovery technologies that comply with current and future legislative requirements. Nitrogen recovery offers simultaneous treatment of wastewater and collection of concentrated ammonia products for fertiliser production. READ MORE

  4. 3. Ammonium-Based Aeration Control with Iterative Set-Point Tuning in Wastewater Treatment Plants

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för systemteknik

    Author : Tom Bärnheim; [2023]
    Keywords : adaptive control; ammonium-based aeration control; ammonium feedback control; iterative set-point tuning; process control; wastewater treatment;

    Abstract : In wastewater treatment plants, the amount of ammonium is one example of a measure to determine the quality of the effluent wastewater. Ammonium is regarded as a hazardous chemical for aqueous ecosystems and can cause eutrophication due to its high nitrogen content. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. Towards finding model pollutants for predicting CEC adsorption on biochars : The suitability of using dyes as proxies for CEC removal efficiency to enable wastewater reuse

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Alexandra Aveling; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study evaluated the use of common dyes as model pollutants for adsorption on biochar. Pollutant removal efficiency of five dyes and three CECs on three different biochars (SWP-550, SWP-700, NDG-SW) was evaluated, using both UV-VIS spectrophotometry and LC-MS/MS, to examine similarities and differences in adsorption performance.
