This paper addresses several important problems and methods related to studies of inland waters based on the existing scientific literature. The use UAVs in freshwater monitoring is described, including recent contact non-contact solutions. Due a decline biological diversity many parts globe, main threats are described together with modern method for algae cyanobacteria utilizing chlorophyll fluorescence. Observed disturbances functioning river biocenoses mine waters’ discharge, causing changes physico-chemical parameters sediments, give rise need develop more accurate assessment this phenomenon. Important occurring context microplastic detection, lack unification, standardization repeatability used, were described. In conclusion, results water quality can be achieved by combining using

Enhancing Biogas Production Amidst Microplastic Contamination in Wastewater Treatment Systems: A Strategic Review

Energies, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 17(11), С. 2555 - 2555

Опубликована: Май 24, 2024

This review highlights the significant interaction between microplastic (MP) pollution and its impact on wastewater treatment systems, focusing optimizing biogas production. We explore various sources of MPs, including tire-derived their introduction into environments. delves mechanical physicochemical challenges MPs pose in processes, emphasizing need for comprehensive mitigation strategies. The biological effects microbial consortia essential production are analyzed, particularly how these pollutants interfere with each stage anaerobic digestion—hydrolysis, acidogenesis, acetogenesis, methanogenesis—and, consequently, generation. examine MPs’ quantitative qualitative impacts output rates, uncovering disrupt activity stages. also discusses novel strategies combining different sludge pretreatment methods MPs. Our goal is to enhance sustainability management by promoting efficient environmental protection presence persistent MP contamination.

Long-Term Monitoring of Microplastics in a German Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant

Microplastics, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 3(3), С. 492 - 502

Опубликована: Авг. 19, 2024

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have been identified as important point sources for microplastics (MPs) in the environment; monitoring MP emissions WWTP effluent is therefore essential contamination control. The aim of this study to acquire a large number samples (320) over period two years and three months determine temporal variations microplastic outlet municipal Landau-Mörlheim. third cleaning stage sampled with 10 µm filter cartridge, processed laboratory using hydrogen peroxide treatment, MPs are then detected by fluorescence staining. results show high concentrations WWTP. This indicates that numbers necessary obtain representative assessment emissions; single not representative. average concentration was 27.8 ± 29.8 MP/L, ranging from 0.6 MP/L 194.0 MP/L. leads yearly emission 1.5 × 1011 Landau-Mörlheim, corresponding an 2.8 106 MP/inhabitant year. Statistically significant seasonal could be observed, although there trend towards lower summer. Further, no correlations other wastewater or weather parameters found.
