Some comparative factors regarding recycling collection systems in regions of the USA and Europe

Article Abstract:

Selective waste collection systems used commonly in Europe and America influence peoples recycling habits and their opinions about the service they are offered and the differences among them are analyzed. The extent to which such differences influence the recycling habits of the public at large, as well as their perceptions of the waste collection services is considered in the discussion.

Fed-batch and batch operating mode analysis of a stirred anaerobic sequencing reactor with self-immobilized biomass treating low-strength wastewater

Article Abstract:

Analysis of a stirred anaerobic sequencing discontinuous reactor with different substrate feeding strategies resulting in batch, fed-batch/batch and fed-batch operating modes is discussed. The stirred anaerobic sequencing batch reactor with self-immobilized biomass presented a stable operation and high performance in the treatment of synthetic domestic wastewater.
