Abstract:Diclofenac (DCF) belongs to the class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which is one of the most consumed by population and detected in raw sewage. Several studies have reported variable removal rates by biodegradation of diclofenac in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). This study deals with the evaluation of the biodegradation of DCF by a bacterial consortium (obtained from pure cultures of Enterobacter hormaechei D15 and Enterobacter cloacea D16), which were isolated from household compost and Alger… Show more
A new mathematical model for constructing anaerobic stabilization pond treatment systems for high organic load wastewater, based on biochemical oxygen demand, temperature and hydraulic retention time, is discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
