Treating hazardous landfill leachate poses significant environmental challenges due to its complex nature. In this study, we propose a novel approach for enhancing the anaerobic digestion of landfill leachate using silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) conjugated with eco-friendly green silica nanoparticles (Si NPs). The synthesized Si NPs and Ag@Si NPs were characterized using various analytical techniques, including transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy.

- Anaerobic co-digestion of paperboard sludge (PS) and sewage sludge (SS) enhances biogas production by finding the optimal mixing ratio of 50:50, resulting in a methane yield of 241.68 mL/g COD and improved conversion efficiencies for proteins, carbohydrates, and volatile fatty acids (VFAs).
- The co-digestion process promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria that help convert complex organic matter into biomethane, mitigating issues like VFA accumulation and nutrient imbalances.
- A combined system for anaerobic digestion and thermal treatment can produce biochar while generating significant profits from biogas and carbon credits, with a projected payback period of 6.60 years, though further research is still
The influence of antibiotics on the anammox process - a review.
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int
February 2022
Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) is one of the most promising processes for the treatment of ammonium-rich wastewater. It is more effective, cheaper, and more environmentally friendly than the conventional process currently in use for nitrogen removal. Unfortunately, anammox bacteria are sensitive to various substances, including heavy metals and organic matter commonly found in the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs).
