The performance of an upflow anaerobic stage reactor (UASR) treating pharmaceutical wastewater containing macrolide antibiotics was investigated. Specifically, it was determined whether a UASR could be used as pretreatment system at an existing pharmaceutical production plant .
· Pharmaceuticals remain in treated wastewater used to irrigate agricultural crops. Their effect on terrestrial plants is practically unknown. Here we tested whether these compounds can be ...
wastewater treatment plant, and economical efficiency of the treatment shall be considered for selecting the treatment process. The basic flow in food processing factories is the regulation, aeration, and settling tanks. Although activated sludge and the lagoon were the most widely
or secondary treatment. In domestic wastewater treatment, preliminary and primary processes will remove approximately 25 percent of the organic load and virtually all of the nonorganic solids. In industrial waste treatment, preliminary or primary treatment may include flow equalization, pH adjustment or chemical addition that is ex
· Biological wastewater treatment is a biochemical process that is centuries old. Even today, as the quantity of industrial effluents discharged is on the increase and the types of pollutants present in the effluent streams are getting diversified, wastewater treatment processes are being investigated and experimented exorbitantly all over the globe.
pharmaceutical industry wastewater is a wastewater that is not amenable to conventional biological treatment. In this study, this wastewater was chemically pretreated using Fenton''s reagent, since the initial values of the biokinetic coefficients before Fenton indied that this wastewater could not be biologically treated.
Rotating biological contactors (RBC) are effective for treating wastewater, while they are rarely reported to be used for treating antibiotic pharmaceutical wastewater (APW). The current study investigates treatment of APW using an RBC. The effects of influent concentration, number of stages, and temperature on the remediation of APW were studied.
This paper contributes to scalingup the BEF process for continuous and effective treating pharmaceuticalscontaminated wastewater. AB The bioelectroFenton (BEF) technology has proven to be an effective and energysaving method for treating wastewaters containing a single pharmaceutical in the labscale.
from sewage treatment plants may be released to surface water or be subjected to groundwater recharges, so that the mixture of compounds enters the aquatic environment. In some cases, biologically treated municipal wastewater may be treated further to produce various reclaimed waters for different purposes including portable reuse. TABLE 1.
processes must be cooled prior to treatment by AS, which increases the time and cost of treatment. The impact of pharmaceuticals on the AS process appears to be negligible under normal operating conditions (Stamatelatou et al., 2003). However at higher concentrations, which may be expected in the wastewater of pharmaceutical manufacturing ...

At wastewater treatment plants, this flow is treated before it is allowed to be returned to the environment, lakes, or streams. There are no holidays for wastewater treatment, and most plants operate 24 hours per day every day of the week. Wastewater treatment plants operate at a critical
In this step sewage water also flows through gravel chambers for settling the grit out of water . SLUDGE THICKENING: Primary sludge constitutes 99% water and 1% solids. To reduce the treatment cost, wastewater plant reduces the water content by primary, secondary and territory thickening processes.
wastewater treatment is a viable solution in their local area. At the same time, the intention was to create a complete solution with treatment of wastewater, air emissions and sludge (drying) on site, having the potential to be exported worldwide. Herlev Hospital is a large scale university hospital with 700 beds and a yearly wastewater
Pharmaceutical wastewater treatment comparison of process scale‐up from bench to full ... Wastewater treatability investigations were conduction for a specialty batch pharmaceuticals production facility which typically produces ... thereby increasing wastewater flow and organic load. Citing Literature. Volume 11, Issue 2. May 1992. Pages 104112.
· The presence of emerging contaminants such as pharmaceutical and personal care products in many aqueous matrices have been reported. One of such matrix is streams of wastewater, including wastewater treatment plants inflows and outflows and wastewater flow bypassing wastewater treatment plants. Their persistence arises from their resistant to breakdown, hence they .
