Constructed wetlands operated as bioelectrochemical systems for the removal of organic micropollutants
M. Hartl, M. J. García-Galán, V. Matamoros +5
The removal of organic micropollutants (OMPs) has been investigated in constructed wetlands (CWs) operated as bioelectrochemical systems (BES). The operation of CWs as BES (CW-BES)…
Microalgae-based bioremediation of water contaminated by pesticides in peri-urban agricultural areas
M. Jesus Garcia-Galan, Luis Simon Monllor-Alcaraz, Cristina Postigo +4
The present study evaluated the capacity of a semi-closed, tubular horizontal photobioreactor (PBR) to remove pesticides from agricultural run-off. The study was carried out in Jul…
Fate of priority pharmaceuticals and their main metabolites and transformation products in microalgae-based wastewater treatment systems
Maria Jesus Garcia-Galan, Larissa Arashiro, Lucia H. M. L. M. Santos +5
The present study evaluates the removal capacity of two high rate algae ponds (HRAPs) to eliminate 12 pharmaceuticals (PhACs) and 26 of their corresponding main metabolites and tra…
Selection of cyanobacteria over green algae in a photo-sequencing batch bioreactor fed with wastewater
Dulce M. Arias, Estel Rueda, María J. García-Galán +2
A strategy based on photo sequencing batch operation was used to select cyanobacteria over unsettled green algae in a wastewater treatment system, evaluating for the first time the…
Nutrient removal from agricultural run-off in demonstrative full scale tubular photobioreactors for microalgae growth
Joan Garcia, Antonio Ortiz, Eduardo Alvarez +5
The objective of this paper is to present the design, construction and operation of 3 full scale semi-closed, horizontal tubular photobioreactors (PBR) used to remove nutrients of…
Use of full-scale hybrid horizontal tubular photobioreactors to process agricultural runoff
Maria Jesus Garcia-Galan, Raquel Gutierrez, Enrica Uggetti +3
Diffuse pollution in rural areas due to agricultural run-off is a widespread and difficult problem to address due to the vast areas affected. Drainage channels do receive these pol…
Nutrients and biomass dynamics in photo-sequencing batch reactors treating wastewater with high nutrients loadings
Dulce María Arias, Enrica Uggetti, María Jesús García-Galán +1
The present study investigates different strategies for the treatment of a mixture of digestate from an anaerobic digester diluted and secondary effluent from a high rate algal pon…
Production of polyhydroxybutyrates and carbohydrates in a mixed cyanobacterial culture: effect of nutrients limitation and photoperiods
Dulce María Arias, Enrica Uggetti, María Jesús García-Galán +1
In the present study, different photoperiods and nutritional conditions were applied to a mixed wastewater-borne cyanobacterial culture in order to enhance the intracellular accumu…
