Modern paradigm has upgraded wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) to water resources recovery facilities (WRRFs), where aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is a sewage treatment technology with promising phosphorus recovery (PR) potential. Herein, the AGS-based simultaneous nitrification, denitrification, and phosphorus removal coupling side-stream PR process (AGS-SNDPRr) was developed with municipal wastewater. Results revealed that AGS always maintained good structural stability, and pollutant removal was unaffected and effective after 40 days of anaerobic phosphorus-rich liquid extraction (fixed rate of 30%). The AGS-SNDPRr achieved a stable phosphorus recovery efficiency of 63.40%, and the side-stream PR further exaggerated in situ sludge reduction by 7.7-10%. Apart from responses of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), the Matthew effect of typical denitrifying glycogen accumulating organisms (DGAOs) Candidatus_Competibacter up to 67.40% mainly contributed to enhanced performance of this new process. This study demonstrated a new approach for simultaneous advanced wastewater treatment, phosphorus recovery, and excess sludge minimization.

Nitrogen deposition continues to change grassland plant community composition particularly in more mesic systems; however, whether these altered plant communities will respond differently to other global change factors remains to be seen. Here, we explore how nutrient-altered tallgrass prairie responds to drought. Seven years of nutrient treatments (control, nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and N + P) resulted in significantly different plant communities.

The cause and consequences of inosine monophosphate (IMP) formation when ATP declines during muscular contractions are not fully understood. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of IMP formation in the maintenance of the Gibbs free energy for ATP hydrolysis (∆G) during dynamic contractions of increasing workload, and the implications of ATP loss .

Simultaneous biological nutrient removal (SBNR) using an anaerobic-anoxic-oxic phase is the key feature of advanced wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Removing ammonia, total nitrogen, and phosphorus concurrently with organic matter and suspended solids from wastewater is essential to meeting stringent effluent discharge standards via SBNR in WWTPs. More insight into the mechanisms of SBNR, i.

Leather waste contains up to 10% nitrogen (N); thus, combustion or gasification only for the energy recovery would not be rational, if safety standards are met. On the other hand, the chromium (Cr) content exceeding 5% in half of the waste stream (/) is too significant to be applied in agriculture. In this work, four acid hydrolysates from leather waste shavings, both wet-white free of Cr and wet-blue with Cr, were used: two with a mixture of acids and supplemented with Cu, Mn, and Zn, and the other two as semi-products from collagen extraction using hydrochloric acid.

Rotating algae biofilm reactors (RABRs) can reduce energy requirements for wastewater reclamation but require further optimization for implementation at water resource recovery facilities (WRRF). Optimizing RABR operation is challenging because conditions at WRRF change frequently, and disregarding interaction terms related to these changes can produce incorrect conclusions about RABR behavior. This study evaluated the two-way interaction and main effects of four factors on the biomass productivity and phosphorus removal efficiency of a microalgae-bacteria biofilm grown in municipal anaerobic digester centrate, with factor levels and operating conditions selected to mimic a pilot RABR at a WRRF in Utah.
