Co-digestion of ruminal content and blood from slaughterhouse industries: influence of solid concentration and ammonium generationI Lopez
Engineering Faculty, University of the Republic, Montevideo, Uruguay
Water Sci Technol 54:231-6. 2006..5 m3/d. The VS stabilisation with a solid retention time of 20 days was of 43%. The pilot reactor working at steady state had a TS concentration of 3-4% with a ratio of RC/blood of 10:1 at the entrance...
Assessment on the performance of a series of two UASB reactors compared against one of the same total volume using Anaerobic Digestion Model No 1 (ADM1)Ivan Lopez
Facultad de Ingenieria, Universidad de la Republica, Montevideo, Uruguay
Water Sci Technol 59:647-52. 2009..Furthermore, for the same total conversion the volume required by the series is 43% of that of the single reactor...
Modelling of slaughterhouse solid waste anaerobic digestion: determination of parameters and continuous reactor simulationIvan Lopez
Engineering Faculty, Universidad de la Republica, J Herrera y Reissig 565, Montevideo, Uruguay
Waste Manag 30:1813-21. 2010..The simulations showed that methane flow peaked at a flow rate of 0.5-0.8 Nm(3)/d/m(reactor)(3) at a residence time of 10-20 days. Simulations allow the adequate selection of operating conditions of a continuous reactor...
UASB reactor hydrodynamics: residence time distribution and proposed modelling toolsI Lopez
Engineering Faculty, Universidad de la Republica, Montevideo, Uruguay
Environ Technol 31:591-600. 2010..Experimental data from a 250 m3 UASB reactor treating malting wastewater are used to calibrate and validate the proposed model...
Modelling of an EGSB treating sugarcane vinasse using first-order variable kineticsIvan Lopez
Facultad de Ingenieria, Universidad de la Republica, Uruguay
Water Sci Technol 64:2080-8. 2011..Variation of specific kinetic constants reflects the influence of the fraction of raw vinasse in the feed. High salt concentrations in the reactor may have inhibited the process...
Integrated anaerobic treatment of dairy industrial wastewater and sludgeMauricio Passeggi
Engineering Faculty, University of the Republic, Montevideo, Uruguay
Water Sci Technol 59:501-6. 2009..LCFA inhibition as assayed using palmitate was found to depend not only on the palmitate concentration but also on the palmitate-to-biomass concentration ratio...
