  1. 1. Production of natural pigments from A. platensis grown on wastewater from local treatment facility.

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Författare :Hana Faulds; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Cyanobacteria; pigments; microalgae; wastewater treatment; biotechnology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Although microalgae have been considered for the biological treatment of wastewater since the 1950’s, their potential to efficiently remove pollutants from various streams remains largely untapped and is yet to be utilized at large scale. The production of algal biomass and extraction of high-value compounds has, however, become increasingly popular with large scale farms and biorefineries around the world producing many promising alternatives to petroleum-based products and processes.

  2. 2. Extrahera tungmetaller ur rötrest med naturligt anskaffade ämnen

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Författare :Linda Watkins; Frida Jönsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : As the demand for biogas increases, so does the amount of digestate produced. Digestate contains large amounts of nutrients and has been introduced in agriculture as an alternative plant nutrient. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Anaerobic Co-digestion of steam pretreated wheat straw and sewage sludge

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)

    Författare :Virginia Tosi; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Anaerobic co-digestion; wheat straw pretreatment; nutrients availability; OLR; VFA acumulation; Biotechnology; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Anaerobic digestion (AD) of wastes and residues is a widely applied and explored process. However, when the process is not optimized, inadequate concentrations of nutrients and inhibitory compounds are common and can lead to low maximum organic loading rates and increased risk of process problems, low organic dry solids degradation rate and reduced methane yields.

  4. 4. Opportunities for increased nutrient recovery at centralised wastewater treatment plants through urine separation

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Hanna Gustavsson; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Nutrient recovery; urine separation; magnesium ammonium phospahte; MAP; ammonium sulphate; AMS; and DHI s WEST;

    Sammanfattning : Municipal wastewater contains a significant amount of nutrients such as phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N). Therefore have the interest of recovering these nutrients at wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) increased. Nutrient recovery would generate revenue for the WWTP, as it is possible to sell the products as fertiliser. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Limiting microplastic pollution from municipal wastewater treatment : A circular economic approach

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Jordy van Osch; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Microplastics; circular economy; wastewater treatment plant; resource recovery; Multi-criteria analysis;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing amount of microplastics found in the environment have underscored the urgency to identify, develop and deploy scenarios in which municipal wastewater treatment plants (MWWTPs) limit the release of urban microplastics into the environment. Simultaneously, the global trend towards a circular economy has defined the conditions for these scenarios in relation to the water-energy- nutrient nexus. LÄS MER
