Molecular and Kinetic Characterization of Anammox Bacteria Enrichments and Determination of the Suitability of Anammox for Landfill Leachate Treatment

Creator:

Sultana, Sharmin

Abstract:

Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) has recently appeared as a promising approach for removing nitrogen from landfill leachates because it requires less oxygen and no organic carbon compared to traditional nitrification-denitrification system, and it produces low sludge volumes, thereby reducing operating and biological sludge disposal costs by over 60%. Anammox bacteria...

Title: Molecular and Kinetic Characterization of Anammox Bacteria Enrichments and Determination of
Effects of Step-Wise Acclimation versus Shock Loading on the Performance of Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Fats, Oils, and Greases

Creator:

Berninghaus, Ashley E.

Abstract:

Anaerobic digestion is a microbially mediated process by which organic matter is decomposed in the absence of oxygen. The end products of anaerobic digestion include treated sludge and biogas, a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide, which can be recovered and used for energy generation. The majority of wastewater treatment...
