Bulking Control With Ozonation In A Nutrient Removal Activated Sludge System, Johannes Van Leeuwen

Johannes van Leeuwen

The control of sludge bulking by ozonation was studied on four parallel pilot-scale (100 l/d) biological nutrient removal systems. Bulking was caused by filamentous organisms which typically occur in nutrient removal systems, i.e. Type 0092, Tpye 0041 and Microthrix parvicella. Continuous dosing of ozone, at 1; 2 and 4g O3/kg mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS).d resulted in a diluted sludge volume index of about 50 ml/g less than the unozonated control. Ozonation was more effective in the sludge cycle than directly into the aeration basin. Nitrification-denitrification was not affected, not even at dosages of 30 g O3/kg MLSS.d. Biological phosphate …

Environmental Assessment Of Las Vegas Wash And Lake Mead Artificial Wetlands Demonstration Project, John R. Baker, R. M. Gersberg, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

Publications (WR)

The effective use of artificial wetlands for treatment of municipal wastewater is well documented; however, design and economic data for artificial wetlands development are limited (Gersberg et al., 1984a). This is due partly to regional differences in climate, soils, and vegetation and partly to the desired waste treatment. As a result, specific treatment levels and cost benefits relative to the use of an artificial wetlands for a particular site cannot be evaluated adequately without a pilot demonstration project. Las Vegas Wash receives sewage effluent from the Las Vegas metropolitan area and has been designated as a wetlands community park. Las …

Reports

Introduction: This report summarizes the work conducted under Grant No. ECE-8419189, "Stochastic Interpolation of Precipitation Data from Multiple Sensors," which was awarded to Utah State University in September, 1985, and completed February 29, 1988. it also covers work under a supplemental award made in February, 1986. The final report is organized into four sections. The following section presents the objective of the research and a brief problem statment. Section 3 contains a summary of second-year work including the project team, work plan, work completed, and publications. In Section4, project conclusions are summarized. A summary of on-going future work is given …
