⭐ JUST PUBLISHED⭐ Project 5083 ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gHGU7zj9 Nutrient management is crucial for addressing water quality issues, especially in watersheds facing rapid urbanization and population growth. Conventional biological nutrient removal (BNR) technologies are generally effective at meeting water quality goals, but they are energy-intensive and costly. This project explored and developed the application of low dissolved oxygen (DO) BNR in existing activated sludge as an alternative treatment method. 🧑🔬 Principal Investigators: Jose Jimenez, Brown and Caldwell Belinda Sturm, The University of Kansas Peter Dold, EnviroSim Associates Ltd.
