El sistema de fangs activats és el tractament biològic més àmpliament utilitzat arreu del món per la depuració d'aigües residuals. El seu funcionament depèn de la correcta operació tant del reactor biològic com del decantador ...
El fang biològic es produeix en les plantes de tractament d'aigües residuals urbanes i industrials. El tractament i la gestió dels fangs és un dels problemes més importants en el camp del tractament de les aigües residuals. ...
Human population has had an impact on the natural phosphorus’ cycle, a limited resource, and the predictions show that this resource could be exhausted in 100-250 years. Therefore, the actions for the coming 10-25 years ...
The thesis presents and evaluates the application of the paradigm of agents to the management of the urban wastewater system. The system is conceptualised as a multi-agent system from the development of the models of ...
Summary Nowadays, ammonium (NH4+) is a pollutant present in all kinds of water bodies, leading to multiple environmental and health issues. The current NH4+-removing technologies are very expensive, as they require a lot ...
Biological nutrient removal has been studied and applied for decades in order to remove nitrogen and phosphorus from wastewater. However, more anthropogenic uses and the continued demand for water have forced the facilities ...
The presence of nitrates (NO3-) in groundwater is a worldwide concern. The high energy demand and environmental impact of available technologies requires investigating new technologies. This thesis was focused on investigating ...
The main objective of this thesis is to characterize and evaluate the capacity of cork and by-products of the cork industry (collectively called as cork samples) as biosorbents of aqueous polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ...
The doctoral thesis has focused on the simultaneous removal of carbon and nitrogen in BES for future application in the treatment of industrial wastewater as swine manure. The bacteria that use the electrode as electron ...
Water quality monitoring during the purification and sanitation processes in Drinking Water Treatment Plants (DWTP), Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP) and Water Reclamation Plants (ERA) is a necessary step to obtain a ...
In this thesis, different studies were performed to investigate the combination of FO for the pre-concentration of municipal WW with an anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) for the production of biogas. Firstly, a ...
This thesis represents an important contribution to facilitate the efficient creation of detailed inventories to carry out Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies of urban wastewater systems. Specifically, this thesis provides ...
La implementació de la Directiva Europea 91/271/CEE referent a tractament d'aigües residuals urbanes va promoure la construcció de noves instal·lacions al mateix temps que la introducció de noves tecnologies per tractar ...
With sustainable development as the new overarching goal, urban wastewater system (UWS) managers are now being asked to take all social, economic, technical and environmental facets related to their decisions into account. ...
In this thesis, it is presented a research for the implementation of a supervisory system that integrates different technical to complement and improve the management of Waste Water Treatment Plants. The protocol proposed ...
Drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) face significant challenges due to anthropocentric pressure and climate change. To address them, DWTP managers need to adjust treatment units. In the present work, a decision support ...
Freshwater scarcity is a growing concern, prompting the exploration of water reuse strategies. Anaerobic wastewater treatment is gaining popularity due to its low energy requirements and the potential for resource recovery. ...
The thesis involves the development and implementation of a new and robust control system based on permeability trends but at the same time capable of reducing aeration proportionally to permeate flux. Permeability was ...
Currently, the access to safe drinking water remains to be crucial for mankind development. Due to the geographical context, changes in demography and climate change perspectives, there are regions where water resources ...
The objective of this thesis is to develop and apply to a real case study a method to allow easier WWTP development planning and implementation of circular economy related processes in the wastewater treatment sector. In ...
