Effects of electrochemical treatment of mixed liquor in submerged ceramic membrane bioreactor
(Master thesis, 2019)Our most valuable and irreplaceable resource is water. Humanity withdraws 3.928 km3 of freshwater per year. Approximately 44% is used for agricultural purposes, the other 56% discharged as wastewater (WW). A large amount ... -
Electrochemical oxidation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) for wastewater treatment and UV-VIS quantification
(Master thesis, 2022)Proper wastewater treatment is vital to remove organic matter as well as persistent pollutants. That affects the biospheres that effluent is discharged to if not treated sufficiently, which has negative effects on the ... -
Environmental performance evaluation of decentralised wastewater treatment systems using life cycle analysis
(Master thesis, 2017-03-23)Proper management of wastewater is a challenge for the cities in developing countries. The discharges of untreated wastewater into the urban rivers have huge impacts on public health as well as entire ecosystem of the ... -
Forbedring av plantetilgjengelig fosfor i kjemisk renset slam med økonomiske betraktninger
(Master thesis, 2016-08-29)Som beskrevet av Cordell et al. (2009) med flere nærmer en fosforkrise seg, det vil si at råfosfatreservene som benyttes i dagens mineralgjødselproduksjon kan komme til å tømmes i løpet av det neste århundret. Da må ... -
