Microbial community evolution in a lab-scale reactor operated to obtain biomass for biochemical methane potential assays.

Biochemical methane potential (BMP) test is an important tool to evaluate the methane production biodegradability and toxicity of different wastes or wastewaters. This is a key parameter for assessing design and feasibility issues in the full-scale implementation of anaerobic digestion processes. A standardized and storable inoculum is the key to obtain reproducible results. In Uruguay, a local enterprise dedicated to design and install anaerobic digesters operated a lab-scale bioreactor as a source of biomass for BMP tests, using a protocol previously described. This reactor was controlled and fed with a mixture of varied organic compounds (lipids, cellulolytic wastes, proteins). Biomass was reintroduced into the reactor after BMP assays to maintain a constant volume and biomass concentration. The aim of this work was to evaluate how the microbial community evolved during this operation and the effect of storing biomass in the refrigerator. The composition of the microbial communities was analyzed by 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing using primers for Bacteria and Archaea. The methanogenic activity was determined, and the methanogens were quantified by mcrA qPCR. One sample was stored for a 5-month period in the refrigerator (4°C); the activity and the microbial community composition were analyzed before and after storage. Results showed that applying the reported methodology, a reliable methanogenic sludge with an acceptable SMA was obtained even though the reactor suffered biomass alterations along the evaluated period. Refrigerating the acclimatized biomass for 5months did not affect its activity nor its microbial composition according to the 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, even though changes in the mcrA abundance were observed. KEY POINTS: • The applied methodology was successful to obtain biomass suitable to perform BMP assays. • The microbial community was resilient to external biomass addition. • Biomass storage at 4°C for 5months did not alter the methanogenic activity.

Novel sparging strategies to enhance dissolved carbon dioxide stripping in industrial scale stirred tank reactors

Aerated stirred tank reactors are widely used in bio-process engineering and pharmaceutical industries. To supply the organisms with oxygen and control the pH value, oxygen is transferred from air bubbles into the liquid phase, and, at the same time, carbon dioxide is stripped from the liquid phase with the same gas bubbles. The volumetric mass transfer coefficients for oxygen and carbon dioxide are, therefore, of crucial importance for the design and scale-up of aerated stirred tank reactors. In this experimental work, the volumetric mass transfer coefficients for oxygen and carbon dioxide are investigated simultaneously to study their mutual influence. The mass transfer performance for oxygen and carbon dioxide is conducted in stirred tank reactors on the 3 L laboratory scale, 30 L pilot scale, and 15,000 L production scale. First, the influence of dissolved carbon dioxide on the oxygen mass transfer performance is investigated in a 30 L pilot scale stirred tank reactor. The results show that the volumetric mass transfer coefficient of oxygen is not affected by the concentration of dissolved carbon dioxide, but the total mass flux of oxygen decreases with increasing carbon dioxide concentration due to the decreasing partial pressure difference. With rising gassing rate and volumetric power input, both mass transfer coefficients for oxygen and carbon dioxide show the same increasing trend. Although this trend can also be observed when scaling down to the 3 L laboratory scale reactor, a significantly different effect must be considered for the scale-up to the 15,000 L industrial scale reactor. The limited absorption capacity for carbon dioxide of the gas bubbles during the long residence time in the industrial scale reactor is noticeable here, which is why the specific interfacial area is of negligible importance. This effect is used to develop a method for independent control of oxygen and carbon dioxide mass transfer performance on an industrial scale and to increase the mass transfer performance for carbon dioxide by up to 25%.

CO2-free production of hydrogen via pyrolysis of natural gas: influence of non-methane hydrocarbons on product composition, methane conversion, hydrogen yield, and carbon capture

Methane pyrolysis represents a CO2-free hydrogen production route that enables simultaneous carbon capture. While the majority of previous studies in the field focus on pure CH4 as feed gas stream, commercial processes will typically rely on natural gas as feedstock that contains also non-methane hydrocarbons such as ethane, propane, and n-butane. Therefore, the present study evaluates how CH4 conversion, H2 selectivity, product composition, and solid carbon yield evolve when using either pure CH4 or synthetic natural gas (SNG) as feed gas stream for a thermal pyrolysis process in a lab-scale high-temperature reactor. For this, industrially viable conditions are applied, namely temperatures between 1000 °C and 1600 °C, residence times between 1 s and 7 s, and molar H2 dilution ratios between 1:1 and 4:1. Although the use of SNG results in slightly lower hydrocarbon conversions because the additional components in SNG result in a higher effective H2 dilution ratio compared to a CH4-only feed, the non-methane hydrocarbons in the SNG have a positive effect on both H2 selectivity and solid carbon yield. Taking existing mechanistic understanding into account, these positive effects are attributed to radicals formed from the non-methane hydrocarbons, which facilitate dehydrogenation steps from ethane to ethylene and hereby increase the relative amount of H2 originating from CH4. The introduction of a carbonaceous fixed bed further benefits the performance of the pyrolysis process and ultimately enables to capture more than 98% of carbon in its solid form under industrially viable process conditions.

Urine luck: Environmental assessment of yellow water management in buildings for urban agriculture

The increasing global demand for agricultural production poses challenges to maintain the needs for critical fertilizers such as nitrogen. This study explores the potential of human urine as a source of renewable nitrogen for fertilizer production. Through a life cycle assessment, three different urine management strategies were compared: (S1) an artificial wetland, (S2) an on-site lab-scale aerobic reactor for nitrogen recovery, and (S3) a centralized wastewater treatment plant. While scenario S2 had the highest impacts in 6 out of 8 categories, an advantage in marine eutrophication was identified. S2 showed high energy demand (750 kg MJ-eq) and ecotoxicity (602 kg 1.4-DCB-eq.) mainly due to energy requirements. Nitrogen production exceeded 2.3 times the yearly nitrogen demands of the building tomato production. Upscaling S2 reduces impacts up to 2 times, lowering the payback time from 29 to 13 years. Therefore, implementing large-scale nitrogen recovery systems in cities is encouraged.

Formate-facilitated recovery of wastewater anammox granular sludge from oxygen inhibition: Effects and mechanisms

Oxygen leakage due to poor reactor sealing or accidental aeration can have detrimental impacts on the performance of wastewater anammox processes. Strategies of restoring functionality of anammox consortia are scarce, and providing appropriate chemical reducing reagents may help reduce oxidative damage. This study characterized the responses of anammox granular sludge (AnGS) to oxygen inhibition, and identified formate as an effective promoter capable of facilitating activity recovery, while other organics (acetate, glucose, methanol) were less effective. Upon 12 h of air exposure (DO: 1.2 ± 0.1 mg/L), the total nitrogen removal efficiency of a lab-scale AnGS reactor decreased from 85.15 % to 45.46 %. Compared with natural recovery (without chemical addition), potassium formate at 10 mg COD/L for 3 days significantly increased the total nitrogen removal efficiency, both in the short-term (66.68 % vs 57.09 %, 3 days post inhibition) and long-term (82.34 % vs 72.88 %, 30 days post inhibition). By examining sludge morphology, metagenome and transcriptome, the following potential mechanisms were proposed: 1) rapidly decreasing intracellular ROS; 2) enhancing nitrite turnover; 3) maintaining granular sludge integrity; 4) facilitating interspecies metabolic interactions. The ability of formate to facilitate sludge recovery from oxygen inhibition also implies its potential in mitigating other oxidative stresses in wastewater anammox reactors.

Chemical looping gasification of vinegar residue with enhanced LD slag composite Ca-Fe oxygen carrier for syngas production

Biomass chemical looping gasification (BCLG) is an emerging technology that enables waste co-processing into clean energy. A laboratory-scale vertical fixed-bed reactor was used to conduct CLG experiments with vinegar residue (VR) as a biomass fuel, and the effect of enhanced LD slag composite Ca-Fe material as an oxygen carrier (OC) on the production of syngas from BCLG was investigated. This study analyzed the influence of LD slag proportion, kinds of OC, and operational conditions (temperature, oxygen carrier/biomass (OC/B) ratio, and steam/biomass (S/B) ratio) on gasification performance. Results indicate that the syngas yield under the gasification operating conditions at about 850 °C, OC/B = 1, and S/B = 2.5 obtained 1.36 Nm3/kg, the CCE and CGE achieved about 80.82% and 98.16%, respectively, and the H2/CO molar ratio was as high as 2.57. The OCs multi-redox cycle test revealed that after undergoing 10 redox cycles under the conditions mentioned above, the gas yield, CCE, and CGE were reduced to varying extents, but still maintained impressive reactivity. The mechanism analysis showed that the performance degradation of the LD slag composite Ca-Fe OC during the multi-cycle process was related to its agglomeration due to thermal stress and steam. This study provides a new perspective on the synthesis of low-cost OCs and the co-utilization of solid wastes.

Effect of High-Rate Aeration in the Electrocoagulation Treatment of Pharmaceutical and Synthetic Textile Industrial Wastewater Effluents

Despite the extensive literature on the effects of implementing aeration in the electrocoagulation (EC) treatment of industrial wastewater, few studies evaluate the performance of this technique at high aeration rates. In this work, we present the outcomes derived from EC treatment of pharmaceutical and synthetic textile wastewater effluents in two lab-scale reactors with and without aeration, each equipped with different electrode combinations of aluminium and iron (Al/Al, Al/Fe, and Fe/Fe). In the non-aerated EC reactor, maximum chemical oxygen demand (COD) reductions of 56% and 80% were achieved for the pharmaceutical and textile effluents, respectively, with up to 100% removal of turbidity and colour with the Al/Al combination. The installation of high-rate aeration to prevent sludge accumulation on the electrode surface markedly reduced residence times and enhanced the COD removal in the pharmaceutical effluent. However, this implementation potentially reduced the process efficiency for thesynthetic textile effluent as prolonged operation led to flocculation breakdown and subsequent re-dissolution of the contaminants in the water.

Physicochemical Investigations of Magnetite Persulfate Ozone Hybrid System for the Removal of Tartrazine Dye from Aqueous Solution

ABSTRACT This study involved the synthesis of magnetite nanoparticles by co-precipitation method. The synthesized nanoparticles were subsequently evaluated for their catalytic efficacy in the degradation and ozonation of tartrazine dye (TTD), employing sodium persulfate as a catalyst both in the presence and absence of ozone. The material characterization revealed that synthesized Fe3O4 nanoparticles were proven to have a crystalline structure by XRD. While spherical agglomerates with a flower-like morphology were revealed by the SEM, similarly FT-IR detected Fe – O – Fe and O – H bond vibrations, boosting surface area and catalytic activity. The degradation of the TTD was assessed in a laboratory-scale reactor, and its progress was monitored using UV-visible spectrophotometry. A comparative analysis of the two methods revealed that the catalytic ozonation demonstrated superior efficacy compared to the catalytic degradation, achieving a maximum degradation of 94.35% within 25 min of contact time. Optimal degradation parameters included a TTD concentration of 50 ppm, magnetite dosage of 0.75 g, persulfate concentration of 8 mm, and ozone inlet concentration of 5 g/L at pH 3. Evaluation of the degradation kinetics indicated the second-order kinetics model as the most appropriate, suggesting a physicochemical nature of the dye removal process. Furthermore, the study demonstrates enhanced efficiency in TTD decomposition compared to conventional methods.

A Kinetic Study on Chronic Response of Activated Sludge to Diclofenac by Respirometry

The present study investigated the chronic response of activated sludge to the emerging pollutant diclofenac as well as its aerobic biodegradation potential at different sludge retention times (SRTs). The impact of prolonged exposure to diclofenac on microbial process kinetics was explored with respirometric modelling. The long-term operation of lab-scale reactors revealed that continuous feeding of diclofenac at relevant concentrations observed in municipal wastewaters did not affect carbon removal efficiency independentl of SRT. However, in case of diclofenac removal, 34% efficiency could be achieved at a higher SRT of 20 days. Kinetic evaluation showed that the increment in diclofenac dosing resulted in no adverse effect on the microbial growth rate except that high concentrations of diclofenac exposure decreased the growth rate at SRT of 10 days. A significant increase in hydrolysis rate was determined in the diclofenac-acclimated biomass for both SRTs; even at high concentrations of diclofenac exposure, the hydrolysis rate remained unchanged. Long-term acclimation to diclofenac had a progressive impact on the hydrolysis kinetics, which could be attributed to an alteration in the microbial culture profile. Overall, the results suggest that the operation with diclofenac-acclimated biomass at higher SRTs could enrich a microbial culture capable of overcoming the adverse effect of the pollutant and improve the biodegradation potential as well.

Sustainable enhancement of biogas production from a cold-region municipal wastewater anaerobic digestion process using optimized sludge-derived and commercial biochar additives

Anaerobic digestion (AD) of municipal wastewater sludges produces valuable solid digestate and biogas. Biogas is a source of clean energy and enhancement of its production has been of recent interest for increased electricity generation, among other products. The objective of this study was the development of a novel municipal sludge-derived biochar and its application in a municipal wastewater AD system to increase the biogas production rate. Thickened waste-activated sludge (TWAS) samples were collected from the cold-region municipal wastewater treatment plant and used to synthesize biochar applied in the simulation of AD processes using laboratory-scale reactors. The TWAS-derived biochar was synthesized using the commonly used furnace pyrolysis (sludge-based biochar, SBC), and more novel microwave pyrolysis including phosphoric acid as a microwave activator (activated sludge-based biochar, ASBC). The microwave pyrolysis conditions were optimized using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique. In addition, various commercially available carbon-based additives were assessed for their impacts on the AD process including activated carbon, wood-derived biochar, and forest residue-derived biochar. Results showed that the ASBC increased the cumulative methane production by 50% (333 mL/g VS) versus the control sample (221 mL/g VS) after 30 d. The ASBC showed higher surface area, electrical conductivity, and metal contents versus the other biochars which boosted the AD microbial community growth leading to higher organic matter conversion into biogas. In the ASBC-amended digesters, the bacterial phylum Bacteroidota, which contains a major genus of the dgA-11-gut-group, exhibited a synergy between organic substrate fermentation and volatile fatty acid production, resulting in enhanced biogas production. The TWAS biochar demonstrated promising performance in enhancing the AD process fostering energy and resource self-sufficiency at municipal wastewater treatment plants. This smart sludge management aligns well with sustainable waste management practices and clean energy production strategies, especially considering that the biochar was sourced from a readily available continuous waste-product stream.

Investigating combustion efficiency and NOx emission reduction in fluidized bed ammonia-coal co-firing

Ammonia, a carbon-free fuel, can significantly reduce CO2 emissions when co-fired with coal in power plants. Fluidized bed combustion, known for its excellent gas-solid mixing and low NOx emissions, is a promising method for ammonia-coal co-firing. However, challenges remain in optimizing ammonia injection and controlling nitrogen oxide emissions. This study investigates these aspects using a lab-scale fluidized bed reactor with flexible ammonia injection points. Key variables, such as ammonia co-firing ratios, injection location, temperature, and outlet oxygen concentration, are examined. The results show that with ammonia injection ratios up to 70 %, NO and N2O emissions slightly increase, while ammonia escape is maintained below 5 ppm. Air staging effectively controls NOx emissions, and higher temperatures promote N2O decomposition, but increase NOx levels. Ammonia injection does not raise unburned carbon content. Rate of production and sensitivity analyses highlight the role of OH radicals in ammonia conversion and identify the critical reactions affecting NO generation. This study highlights the feasibility of fluidized bed ammonia-coal co-firing technology.

Effect of Residual Cuts on Deactivation of Hierarchical Y Zeolite-Based Catalysts during Co-Processing of Vacuum Gas Oil (VGO) with Atmospheric Residue (ATR)

The influence of residual cuts on the deactivation of hierarchical Y zeolite-based catalysts during the co-processing of vacuum gas oil (VGO) with atmospheric residue (ATR) was investigated. The experiments were conducted in a laboratory-scale MAT-type reactor. The conversion of VGO, ATR, and their 70:30 (mass basis) mixture was examined using two composite catalysts: Cat.Y.0.00 and Cat.Y.0.20. The operating conditions closely resembled those of the commercial catalytic cracking process (550 °C and contact times of 10 to 50 s). When ATR was processed individually, the conversion remained below 50 wt%. However, significant improvements in conversion rates were achieved and catalyst deactivation was mitigated when ATR was co-processed with VGO. Notably, the BET surface area and average mesopore volume were adversely impacted by ATR, which also led to the accumulation of high levels of metals and nitrogen on the spent catalyst, detrimentally affecting its acidic and structural properties. Moreover, substantial coke deposition occurred during ATR cracking. The soluble and insoluble coke analysis revealed H/C ratio values of up to 0.36, indicative of polycondensed coke structures with more than ten aromatic rings. The nature of the coke was confirmed through TPO and FTIR analyses. Interestingly, the CatY.0.20 catalyst exhibited less activity loss, retaining superior acid and structural properties. Co-processing Colombian atmospheric residue with ATR loadings of 30 wt% (higher than the typical 20 wt%) in catalysts formulated with hierarchical zeolites presents a promising alternative for commercial applications. This research opens avenues for optimizing catalytic cracking processes.

Sustainable pre-treatment of tempeh industry wastewater: Efficiency of vermifiltration in pollutant mitigation and compost production

This study investigated the efficacy of vermifiltration (VF) as a sustainable pre-treatment method for tempeh industry wastewater. Three lab-scale VF reactors using different earthworm feeds - cow dung (VF-1), tofu dregs (VF-2), and a combination of both (VF-3) - were used to evaluate their ability to reduce chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD₅), and total suspended solids (TSS), as well as pH. VF-3 exhibited superior performance, achieving reductions of 94.51 % in COD, 95.59 % in BOD₅, and 88.59 % in TSS with maintaining pH values between 6.73 and 6.87. The resulting vermicompost (VC) had high nutrient content, particularly in the VF-3 reactor, with values of 7.66 % C-organic, 1.19 % nitrogen (N), and a C/N ratio of 10.33, phosphate (P) 1.65 %, and potassium (K) of 0.37 %. Additionally, significant earthworm growth was noted in VF-3, suggesting enhanced organic matter breakdown. These results indicate that VF technology not only effectively reduces pollutants in wastewater but also produces nutrient-rich compost, offering a dual benefit for sustainable wastewater management in the tempeh industry.

Biodegradation of glucose and paracetamol and process optimisation with open mixed microbial cultures in lab-scale sequencing batch reactors

In the context of biological wastewater treatment, this study investigated xenobiotics (man-made chemicals) biodegradation and process optimisation to maximise sustainability. Lab-scale sequencing batch reactors (SBRs) fed with paracetamol (model xenobiotic) and glucose (model biogenic substrate) each as only carbon source (feed concentration 1 g L−1) were run in a range of HRTs (hydraulic retention time, range 0.5–2 d) and SRTs (solids retention time, range 1–28 d). For both substrates, the removal of COD (chemical oxygen demand) increased as the SRT increased, reaching 97 % for glucose and 86 % for paracetamol. At the lowest HRT, the high solid losses with the effluent caused a reduction in the SRT with worse substrate removal. The fraction of the removed COD which was converted into biomass increased for lower SRT and overall the best performance for sustainability (compromise between substrate removal, energy consumption and plant footprint) was observed with HRT 1 d and SRT 11–12 d. The experimental data were modelled using two different approaches: linearisation of a continuous-flow model and non-linear parameter fitting with a periodic steady-state SBR model. The results indicated faster growth rate and slightly higher growth yield for glucose than for paracetamol.

Life cycle assessment of silica aerogel produced from waste glass via ambient pressure drying method

Silica aerogels are excellent insulation materials, but they possess high embedded costs and their production includes many energy-intensive steps. A novel protocol developed to produce silica aerogel from waste soda lime glass via ambient pressure drying was assessed regarding sustainability. Upcycling waste materials and implementing a low-energy drying technique are aimed at increasing the sustainability of aerogels. This study presents a cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment (LCA) of this process on a laboratory scale (reactor volume of 0.5 l) as well as on a modeled industrial scale (reactor volumes of 100 l and 1000 l). The environmental impacts associated with each scale, as well as with each step of the production, were calculated and summarized with an environmental cost indicator in euros for each process. Potential end-of-life scenarios were considered to explore waste treatment approaches. Results show that electricity consumption is a major contributor to environmental impact, especially at the laboratory scale. However, at the industrial scale, efficiency is significantly improved, thereby drastically decreasing the impact of electricity. Additionally, the contributions of raw materials have a larger environmental impact than those of waste disposal, indicating that it is crucial to focus on the reduction and re-usage of reactants and solvents.

Predicting aeration time and nitrite accumulation rate variations for Partial Nitritation: A model incorporating nitrogen oxidation rate dynamics

This study aimed to develop a two-step nitrification model to predict variations in aeration time and nitrite accumulation rate (NAR) under fluctuating operational conditions in mainstream partial nitritation (PN) processes. Lab-scale sequencing batch reactors (SBRs) were used to evaluate the ammonia oxidation rate (AOR) and nitrite oxidation rate (NOR) under different solids retention times (SRT) (10, 15, 20, 30, and 50 days) and total volumetric nitrogen loadings (TVNL) (20–60 mg N/L per cycle). A static model was developed to predict consistent AOR and NOR values in the steady state, whereas a dynamic model was established to capture the growth dynamics of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) under unsteady-state conditions. The static model accurately predicted the AOR, NOR, and aeration time at steady state. The dynamic model quantified the relationship between specific growth rates (μ) and food-to-microorganism ratios (F/M) through exponential fitting, successfully capturing AOB and NOB growth dynamics. Validation experiments (SRT = 10 d, TVNL = 60 mg/L per cycle) demonstrated the ability of the dynamic model to predict trends in NAR and aeration time accurately. This study emphasizes the importance of accurately modeling AOR and NOR variations to predict aeration time and NAR, thereby providing valuable insights for aeration control and precise management of AOB and NOB populations in mainstream PN processes.

Application of continuous stirring tank reactor for controllable synthesis of Cu7S4 nanocrystals

As a typical model for a chemical reactor in industry, the continuous stirring tank reactor has been widely used in waste-water treatment, industrial catalysis, and biological fermentation as well as great application prospects in the synthesis of nanomaterials. In this report, a convenient lab-scale continuous stirring tank reactor was assembled and utilized to synthesize Cu7S4 nanocrystals by injecting cupric bromide and sulfur solution in the presence of ascorbic acid and polyethyleneimine at 60 °C. The morphology control of Cu7S4 nanocrystals was accomplished by simply adjusting the agitation speed. Cu7S4 nanofibers with an average diameter of 48 ± 4.42 nm and a length of several micrometers were obtained at 80 rpm. Cu7S4 nanoplates with a thickness of 89 ± 13.56 nm and a plane size of 103 ± 16.47 nm were synthesized at 90 rpm, and the size of the nanoplates was regulated by continuously increasing the agitation speed from 90 rpm to 1000 rpm. Furthermore, the influences of two additional conditions (the mean residence time and the concentration of the feed solution) on the morphology of Cu7S4 nanocrystals, were also investigated. Therefore, these results could facilitate the understanding of the behaviors of CSTR in the synthesis of Cu7S4 nanocrystals and could also provide an important reference for the continuous synthesis of other nanoparticles.

MMO-induced batch and pilot-scale electro-oxidation treatment of municipal wastewater.

The present research aimed to explore the durability of MMO electrodes through electro-oxidation (EO) in purifying secondary treated actual sewage wastewater using batch and pilot-scale setups. The main aim is to inactivate bacteria in sewage treatment plants before they are released into the environment, thus contaminating water and soil. Process parameters such as current density (j), NaCl dose (n), and treatment time (t) were optimized using response surface methodology in a lab-scale EO reactor under batch conditions. The results showed that optimization of current density at 5.90mA/cm2 and NaCl concentration at 1.31g/L led to 93.90% of bacterial inactivation (Q1) within 8min of treatment and 0.48 kWh/m3 energy consumption (Q2). Biological analysis was conducted to validate bacterial cell destruction and count coliform bacteria in the EO-treated sewage wastewater. XRD, cyclic voltammetry studies, and FE-SEM/EDS analysis were done to confirm the MMO anode's durability and stability after 100 recycles. The study prioritized bacterial inactivation along with organic matter degradation. Besides that, a small pilot-scale study on the actual sewage wastewater with a volume of 10-50 L was done in batch mode under previously optimized conditions to analyze the efficacy of the MMO anodes in terms of bacterial inactivation.
