The review is concerned with the transfer of oxygen from air to a wastewater subjected to biological aerobic treatment. Oxygen transfer from gaseous to the liquid phase, is a vital part of a number of wastewater treatment processes, such as activated sludge process which is totally depend on the availability of sufficient quantity of oxygen. This paper is a study of oxygen transfer rate, efficiency, capacity and their kinetics on aeration system. Apart from this the study shows how the sludge retention time and the oxygen uptake rate is depend on the temperature of wastewater of sewage treatment plant. The standard oxygen transfer rate is the decisive factor in the dimensioning of activated sludge process used in STP Plants. It depends on the required oxygen uptake rate by micro-organisms. This review discuss about the dependency of oxygen transfer rate on the temperature of wastewater.
Los efectos de variaciones en la velocidad de agitación (120, 180 y 240 rpm) y aireación (0.1 y 0.3 vvm) sobre la producción de biomasa y la producción de azadiractina en un biorreactor de tanque agitado a 27°C, 0.89 atm y luz permanente... more
Los efectos de variaciones en la velocidad de agitación (120, 180 y 240 rpm) y aireación (0.1 y 0.3 vvm) sobre la producción de biomasa y la producción de azadiractina en un biorreactor de tanque agitado a 27°C, 0.89 atm y luz permanente fueron estudiados. Se evaluó el efecto del oxígeno disuelto en el medio sobre el crecimiento y la producción de azadiractina mediante la estimación de kLa, VCO, QO2 y VTO. El crecimiento celular, al igual que la producción de azadiractina mostró estar fuertemente influenciado por las condiciones de mezclado. Al incrementar la velocidad de agitación y aireación disminuyó considerablemente la acumulación de biomasa (hasta un 59.22%) y la síntesis de azadiractina (hasta un 87.63%). Los valores de kLa y VTO aumentaron con incrementos en la velocidad de agitación y aireación (hasta un 240% y 377% respectivamente), los cuales favorecieron el proceso de transferencia de masa, mientras que ocurrió lo contrario con los valores de la VCO y QO2.

The purpose of the paper is to demonstrate that the use of fine bubbles generators which are moving into the water is more efficient than the use of fixed fine bubbles generators. The results of the theoretical and experimental researches on the oxygen transfer rate to water are presented in the case of an immobile fine bubbles generator. Keywords—Water; aeration; generating air bubbles; fine bubble generators; oxygen transfer rate; I. INTRODUCTION Oxygen transfer to water, which occurs both in aquariums, fish breeders and sewage, is an important problem in applying aeration technologies. If fine bubbles aeration [1] is used, significant energy savings are obtained, 20 ÷ 50% of the energy required for aeration [2]. Of the power consumption of a sewage plant, 67% is the energy consumption of water treatment [1] [2]. Reducing energy consumption can be done by using fine bubbles generators (FBG) where the pressure loss is low; at the same time, the efficiency of the oxygen transfer to water must be higher and the consumption of compressed air should be reduced. Air pressure at the entrance to the fine bubbles generator is a very important parameter in the selection and monitoring of fine bubbles generators, regardless of the shape or material from which they are built. It is necessary to monitor this parameter during the operation of the aeration system as it indicates the operation state of the fine bubbles generator by the fact that any clogging of the FBG orifices automatically leads to an increase in air pressure at the entrance. The size and the orifices dimensions is a major parameter of FBG, because it directly affects the working pressure of it. The working pressure of the FBG is the air pressure under the orifices plate. Using FBG which moves in water, i.e. mobile FBG has the following advantage: the trajectory of the air bubbles in water is a curve directed toward the free surface of the water; as a result the contact time between the air bubble and the water is higher, the rate of increase in the dissolved oxygen concentration in the water will be higher. As a result, the time required to aerate the water is reduced.

Исследовано влияние потребления энергии на жизнедеятельность и рост клеток в популяциях различной возрастной структуры, а также на синтез продуктов и утилизацию различных субстратов. Показан простой экспоненциальный характер накопления неделящихся форм клеток во времени при лимитировании кислородом. Предложена модель структурирования популяций, основанная на различии значений расхода энергии на поддержание жизнедедеятельности у делящихся и неделящихся клеток и показана её адекватность.
