TL;DR: A full detailed design of a potential application based on Granular sludge Sequencing Batch Reactors showed that the GSBR technology was less sensitive to the land price and more sensitive to a rain weather flow, and became more attractive at lower permissible RWF/DWF ratios and higher land prices.

TL;DR: In this article, the results of a comparative research program involving four leading membrane suppliers: Kubota, Mitsubishi, X-Flow, and Zenon, were presented, focusing on the functionality of the membrane, the biological treatment, membrane fouling, achieved effluent quality and system operability.

TL;DR: Aerobic granular sludge technology can be regarded as the future standard for industrial and municipal wastewater treatment as discussed by the authors, and a growing number of institutes and universities focus their scientific research on this new technology.

TL;DR: Bio-augmentation can be used to obtain nitrification in activated sludge processes that operate at sub-optimal solid retention times by incorporating N-removal and augmentation of nitrifiers in the so-called BABE process.

TL;DR: The Dutch Nereda ® technology is based upon aerobic granular sludge and distinguishes itself from traditional activated sludge systems by a significant lower energy and chemical consumption, much less space requirements and lower costs.
