Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNucleation and Crystal Growth Rates of Struvite in DTM Type Crystallizer with a Jet-Pump of Descending Suspension Flow in a Mixing ChamberJoanna Koralewska, Krzysztof Piotrowski, Boguslawa Wierzbowska, Andrzej MatyniaThe kinetic data concerning reaction-crystallization of struvite from diluted water solutions of Mg2+, NH4+ and PO43- ions in a continuous DTM-type liquid jet-pump crystallizer with internal circulation of suspension are presented and discussed. The measurements were performed with the assumption of minimal value of unit power of a jet-pump’s feeding stream, providing thus a minimal level of internal circulation intensity. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,957 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGrowth Inhibition of Struvite Crystals in the Presence of Herbal Extract Boerhaavia diffusa LinnC. K. Chauhan, M.J. Joshi, A. D.B. VaidyaProblem statement: The formation of a urinary stone, known as nephrolithiasis, urolithiasis, renal calculi or kidney stone is a serious, debilitating problem in all societies throughout the world. Struvite or Ammonium Magnesium Phosphate Hexahydrate (AMPH) is one of the components of urinary stone (calculi). Struvite stones are commonly found in women.

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExploring the Potential for Concentration of Nutrients from Urine Using Solar Evaporation and Carbon Dioxide Trapping of AmmoniaTesfamariam Y. Debessai, Ababu T. Tiruneh, Gabriel C. BwembyaNutrients derived from urine such as nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium constitute valuable sources of fertilizers needed for growing plants and as alternatives to commercial fertilizers. Concentration of nutrients available from urine provides advantages of reducing the volume of transportation, the health risk and making nutrient application to soil stable and suitable. An exploratory review of a possible technology for concentration … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2019 · 7,167 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparison Between Biological Treatment and Chemical Precipitation for Nitrogen Removal from Old Landfill LeachateLong Tengrui, Anas F. Al-Harbawi, He Qiang, Zhai JunThe study reports the results of a laboratory scale investigation aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of mature municipal landfill leachate treatment by a biological stage (used SBBR as a biological treatment) and Chemical precipitation (Used MAP precipitation (magnesium ammonium phosphate)) to study the nitrogen removal capabilities for treatment of sanitary landfill leachate containing high ammonia concentration, and the comparison between … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,032 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProspects of Using Wastewater as a Resource-Nutrient Recovery and Energy GenerationMusfique Ahmed, Chowdhury Kamrul Hasan, Hafizur Rahman et al.It is well understood that both untreated and partially treated wastewater comprise substantial amount of resources, which can be recovered and utilized for different purposes. Since Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) is energy intensive and expensive, substantiating the WWTPs with Resource Recover Technologies (RRTs) will not only save a considerable amount of energy but also make the environment cleaner and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2015 · 8,183 accessesView PDF Cite
