FACILITIES
The Laboratory for
Industrial Wastewater and Water Renovation consists of a pilot
plant and a chemical laboratory ; In addition it shares the
facilities in the Laboratory for the Study of Organic
Micropollutants.
Pilot Plant for
the study of Industrial
Wastewater and Water Renovation
Equipped for carrying out multitude investigations characteristic
of the industrial wastewater and water renovation, such as
simulation of aquifer restoration units, optimization of
wastewater treatment units such us oil water separation,
disturbances in the biological units, filtration, etc.
A system of six large columns (15 cm I.D; 200 cm long) together with
a similar system of 12 smaller columns (6 cm I.D.; 100 cm long) is set up for the study of:
bioremediation, biomass dynamics in a porous media, changes of
hydraulic conditions in a porous media during bioremediation. Series of batch reactors for the study of
external disturbance caused by organic pollutants to activated sludge.
Laboratory for
Industrial Wastewater
This laboratory is equipped for chemical analyses of wastewater:
Chemical oxygen demand
reactor (COD Reactor HACH); photometer (spectronic 20 Genesys);
oxygen
demand analyzer (OD YSI Model 58); turbidimeters (Turbidimeter
2100 A HACH); pH meter, conductivity meter, ovens; balances,
incubator.
