Abstract
Development of a Prototype of Wastewater Treatment from The Hemodialysis Process Using a Fixed Aerobic Biological Reactor
Highlights
Hemodialysis is a process that replaces the physiological activities in patients with kidney failure, helping to cleanse the blood of toxins, salts, urea, creatinine, ions, high concentrations of potassium, organic salts, among others [1]
Each weekly hemodialysis patient needs three sessions of four hours on average, in addition, approximately 300l of drinking water are used for each session, previously treated to achieve biocompatibility [2,3]
It is a topic of interest for the generation of new pollutant removal technologies. This project proposes the development of a compact treatment prototype, specific to achieve the treatment of hemodialysis water by means of a fixed aerobic biological reactor
