Removal of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate by anaerobic and aerobic reactors treating domestic sewage

This study evaluated the removal and behavior of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) in pilot-scale integrated anaerobic–aerobic wastewater treatment systems, which were tested at different effluent recirculation rates (0%, 50%, and 100%). The systems combined UASB reactors and a...

Disinfection performance of mixed oxidant, NaClO, and Ca(ClO)2 in anaerobic effluents: effects on microbial quality, physicochemical properties, and trihalomethane formation

Abstract The disinfectant action of the mixed oxidants (MIOXs) was compared with that of sodium and calcium hypochlorite (NaClO and Ca(ClO) 2 ) in the post-treatment of anaerobic effluent. The following responses were evaluated: microbiological reduction (total coliforms and Esch...
