Summary 16S rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes for eubacteria (EUB338), ammonium-
oxidizing bacteria (Nsm156) and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (Nb1000) were used for the rapid …

Water consumption in a fish-processing industry and high-strength wastewater from such an
industry are of great concern world-wide. Liquid effluent regulations are becoming more …

Recent efforts in the field of used water treatment and water reclamation have led to the
development of a number of innovative high retention membrane bioreactor (HRMBR) …

The effect of salinity on the activity, the composition of nitrifiers and floc characteristics of
nitrifying sludge was studied. Non-adapted and adapted (to 10g NaCl–Cl−/L for one year) …

Nutrient removal from synthetic wastewater was investigated using a four-step sequencing
batch reactor (SBR) at different salt (NaCl) concentrations in order to determine the salt …

Excess amounts of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) from anthropogenic activities such as
population growth, municipal and industrial wastewater discharges, agriculture fertilization …

This review paper intends to provide an overall vision of SBR technology as an alternative
method for treating wastewaters. This technology has been gaining popularity through the …

The performance of an anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic (2+ 2+ 12h of hydraulic retention time)
process with and without inoculation of sodium chloride acclimated seeds was investigated …

The discharge of high-strength wastewater from the fish-processing industries, comprising
undefined blends of toxic and organic compounds, has always been a subject of great …

A nitrifying activated sludge reactor fed with a high salinity medium was operated efficiently
at ammonia loading rates between 1 and 4g NH4+–Nl− 1d− 1. The system became …
