A Ground-Breaking Innovation In Wastewater Treatment
The fashion industry contributes 20% of industrial water pollution With a high water footprint, massive chemical use and atmospheric, water and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, dyehouse operations are the most environmentally damaging component of the apparel supply chain2.Global brands are responding by requiring manufacturers to treat wastewater and reduce effluent. Paradoxically, conventional water treatment systems generate toxic sludge, trading water pollution for solid, chemical discharge that is landfilled and emits GHG – mostly methane.

Advanced Wastewater Treatment By Nanofiltration And Activated Carbon For High Quality Water Reuse
Hybrid processes combining activated carbon and nanofiltration have been studied to identify the optimum solution for advanced wastewater treatment in high quality water reclamation and reuse. With a focus on the removal of bulk and trace organic compounds the investigation identified three promising process combinations, namely powdered activated carbon followed by nanofiltration (PAC/NF), granular activated carbon followed by nanofiltration (GAC/NF) and nanofiltration followed by granular activated carbon (NF/GAC). The removal potential was examined in lab and pilot scale for a range of refractory pharmaceuticals and industrial chemicals typically detected in effluent in trace concentrations ranging from ng/L to μg/L. Fluorescence excitation emission spectroscopy was employed for the investigation of the fate of effluent organic matter. The optimum strategies for operation of the hybrid processes were determined in pilot scale. The experiments were conducted at the Wastewater Treatment Plant Aachen Soers providing an effluent of high quality with low dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations of about 5 mg/L.

Sewer Design Guide
Abstract:
the Sewer Design Guide is a guide for the engineer when planning and designing wastewater facilities and should be used for both public facilities and private facilities which serve multiple lots. This guide summarizes and outlines relevant City policies, applicable codes, and engineering and operational practices and procedures that have been developed in an effort to establish a cost-effective, reliable, and safe wastewater collection system. Also to be considered and used in conjunction with this design guide are all applicable current standard drawings, specifications, codes, laws and industry requirements for the planning and design of wastewater infrastructures

Adsorption And Biological Filtration In Wastewater Treatment
Over the last few decades adsorption has gained paramount importance in industry and environmental protection. Adsorption processes are widely applied for separation and purification because of the high reliability, energy efficiency, design flexibility, technological maturity and the ability to regenerate the exhausted adsorbent. One method of important extending the adsorption treatment processes is biofiltration. The biological filter relies on the activities of the community of micro-organisms that become attached onto the filter media. Microbes oxidize organic matters in water to produce energy and therefore available nutrients sources in feed water are essential for their development. Biofiltration can effectively remove organic matter that is not able to be removed from water and biologically treated sewage effluent in conventional sewage treatment. The microbial attachment process, the factors that influence biological filtration, the kinetics of microbial growth and details of the microbial community in the biofilter are discussed in detail. There are several types of biofilters including submerged filters, trickling filter, bed filter, fluidised bed. The different biofilters are described and a comparison between them is provided. The application of biofilters for treating various types of wastewater effluent is detailed.

Advanced Wastewater Treatment Technologies
Wastewater, also written as waste water, is any water that has been adversely affected in quality by anthropogenic influence. Wastewater can originate from a combination of domestic, industrial, commercial or agricultural activities, surface runoff or storm water, and from sewer inflow or infiltration. Municipal wastewater (also called sewage) is usually conveyed in a combined sewer or sanitary sewer, and treated at a wastewater treatment plant. Treated wastewater is discharged into receiving water via an effluent pipe. Wastewaters generated in areas without access to centralized sewer systems rely on on-site wastewater systems. These typically comprise a septic tank, drain field, and optionally an on-site treatment unit. The management of wastewater belongs to the overarching term sanitation, just like the management of human excreta, solid waste and storm water (drainage). Industrial wastewater is defined as any wastewater generated from any manufacturing,
processing, institutional, commercial, or agricultural operation, or any operation that discharges other
than domestic or sanitary wastewater.
