An Engineered Reactor Approach to Integrating Physicochemical and Biological Processes for In-Situ Bioremediation of Contaminated Subsurface Systems
The concept of integrating biologically active granular carbon reactors into groundwater recycle schemes to provide continuous acclimation and enrichment of microorganisms and inoculation...
Microbiological Stabilization Through Aerobic Digestion and Storage
A study was conducted to evaluate the pathogen indicator bacterial reductions in the sludges of six wastewater treatment plants. These plants were extended aeration and oxidation ditch...
Microbial Quality of the Mussel
Guanabara bay is an estuarine complex in the state of Rio de Janeiro with 12 cities including Rio de Janeiro and Niteroi on its shores. It has a hidrographic basin of 4000 Km2...

Implications of Soluble Microbial Products (SMP) Formation on Biofilm Reactor Performance
The objective of this study is to evaluate the implications of SMP formation for biofilm treatment. To do so, the extended steady-state model was applied to predict effluent concentrations...
Microbe War Delays Waste Treatment
Assessment of Analytical Techniques for Monitoring Petroleum Waste Land Treatment Systems
Optimization of wastewater land treatment effectiveness requires current knowledge of the microbiological ecosystem. Environmental parameters must be measured if they are to be adjusted...
Effects of Industrial-Municipal Co-Disposal
A study was conducted to evaluate the physical, microbiological, and chemical conditions of nineteen experimental landfills after the completion of a ten-year long municipal refuse/industrial...
Decay in Wood Structures
One of the main causes of wood deterioration is decay. Decay causes millions of dollars in damage to timber structures each year. Left unchecked, decay deterioration can become a structural...
Structural Vibrations Associated with Large Incubation Tanks
It is the purpose of this paper to describe the format of an investigation wherein the train of evidence led from an assumption of a strictly mechanical cause to an actual cause that was...
Modeling of Microbially Active Soil Columns
A soil-based microbial treatment process for on-site treatement of hazardous industrial wastewaters has been developed. The indigenous microflora of the soil are supplemented by the addition...
Evaluation of the Effects of Temperature and Oxygen Concentration on Lignin Biodegradation
Color in natural waters has been attributed to humic substances which are believed to originate as by-products of lignin biodegradation. The purpose of our research was to examine the...
