Numerous bacteria have been found to exhibit the capacity for intracellular
polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) accumulation. Current methods for PHA production at the …

Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) have been increasingly employed for municipal and
industrial wastewater treatment in the last decade. The efforts for modelling of such …

This work critically reviews modeling concepts for standard activated sludge wastewater
treatment processes (eg, hydrolysis, growth and decay of organisms, etc.) for some of the …

Mathematical Modelling and Computer Simulation of Activated Sludge Systems–Second
Edition provides, from the process engineering perspective, a comprehensive and up-to …

Aerobic granulation may play an important role in the field of wastewater treatment due to
the advantages of aerobic granules compared to the conventional sludge flocs, such as …

The activated sludge process is commonly used to treat wastewater by aerobic oxidation of
organic pollutants into carbon dioxide and water. However, several nonoxidative …

Activated sludge is subjected to transient conditions, resulting in the enhanced production of
microbial products (ie, extracellular polymeric substances, soluble microbial products, and …

A mathematical model has been developed to describe the simultaneous autotrophic and
heterotrophic growth in granule-based sequencing batch reactors (SBRs). Experimental …

Background This paper presents a metabolic model describing the production of
polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) copolymers in mixed microbial cultures, using mixtures of …

The two-stage A/B WWTP configuration is being studied as a possible wastewater treatment
with low energy consumption or even with a net energy generation. The first phase, A-stage …
