Exploration of Simultaneous Anammox and Denitrification (SAD) Biofilm Processes for Nitrogen Removal

Creator:: Hilliard, Richard F.
Abstract:: Anammox (anaerobic ammonium oxidation) bacteria are capable of providing low-cost nitrogen removal for numerous types of wastewaters. However, low growth rates cause long startup-times and inhibition by oxygen and metabolic substrates necessitate close process control to maintain performance. Incorporation of Simultaneous Anammox and Denitrification (SAD) into constructed wetlands could provide...

Development of an anammox HDH enzyme assay to characterize heavy metal inhibition with protection tests

Creator:: Qiao, Guancheng
Abstract:: Removing nitrogen from wastewater is critical to avoid eutrophication of receiving waters. Due to its potential economic benefits, the use of anammox bacteria to remove nitrogen from wastewater is gaining in popularity. Anammox bacteria utilize NO₂- to oxidize NH₄+ to N₂. However, anammox bacteria are sensitive to a wide variety...

Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Municipal Sludge and Fats, Oils, and Greases: Effects on Digester Performance and Microbial Community Dynamics

Creator:: Berninghaus, Ashley E.
Abstract:: The natural production of methane via anaerobic digestion (AD) is facilitated by a complex community of microorganisms, primarily bacteria and archaea, referred to as the AD microbiome. AD is growing in prominence as a solution to the disposal of food waste, sewage sludge, and the organic fraction of municipal solid...

Genome-Scale Metabolic Reconstruction and Analysis of a Pure Culture Anaerobic Digester

Creator:: Kirkendall, Tyler M.
Abstract:: Anaerobic digestion is a biological process in which organic matter is decomposed by a community of microbes in the absence of oxygen. The end product of anaerobic digestion is biogas, composed of methane and carbon dioxide, which is often recovered and used to generate energy. Commonly, biogas is not produced...

Examination of Immobilized TiO₂ Nanoparticle Photocatalytic Treatment of Stormwater by LilyPads

Creator:: Lopez, David A.
Abstract:: Stormwater runoff is a significant cause for impairment of many water bodies, a problem that will inevitably escalate due to increasing land-cover change associated with urbanization. The effect of stormwater runoff has spurred legislation and the subsequent development and adoption of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to treat stormwater. This work...

Optimization of Wastewater Sampling and Concentration Methods to Accurately Detect and Quantify SARS-CoV-2 in Varying Scales of Catchment

Creator:: George, Andrea D.
Abstract:: At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the world was unprepared for such a massive challenge to global health. Individual testing kits and personal protective equipment were scarce. There were minimal ways to track the rapid spread of the disease, until researchers discovered that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19,...

Co-treatment of Municipal Wastewater and Landfill Leachate in an Activated Sludge Sequencing Batch Reactor

Creator:: Bushee, Gavin A.
Abstract:: A year-long bench-scale treatability study was performed to assess the feasibility of using an activated sludge sequencing batch reactor (SBR) to treat a mixture of domestic wastewater and landfill leachate. A 50/50 (v/v) of domestic wastewater and landfill leachate was treated in a 1 L SBR operated on a 12...

Sediment Deposition Characteristics in Shallow Saturation Excess Overland Flow with Application to Bioswales and Construction of a Novel Bioswale Design for Improved Contaminant Removal from Stormwater

Creator:: Wells, Jacqueline R.
Abstract:: Over the last two decades, urban stormwater management has grown to include green infrastructure, such as bioswales. These systems were primarily designed to mitigate hydraulic peaking during rainstorms but were also found to remove particulate and dissolved contaminants. However, little is known about the fate of these particulate contaminants after...

Exploring the Anaerobic Co-digestion of Food Waste, Brewery Waste, and Fats, Oils, and Greases through Biomethane Potential Testing and Response Surface Methodology

Creator:: Liberman, Madalyn R.
Abstract:: Food waste (FW), brewery waste (BW), and fats, oils, and greases (FOG), are prevalent waste streams in municipalities across the country, particularly in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). Anaerobic digestion (AD), the microbial-mediated transformation of organic waste into methane-rich biogas, offers a sustainable, energy-generating, waste management solution for these wastes. Anaerobic...
