Abstract

Resource recovery, preferably as high value products, is becoming an integral part of modern wastewater treatment, with conversion to heterotrophic or phototrophic/photosynthetic microbes a key option to minimise dissipation, and maximise recovery. This study compares the treatment capacities of purple phototrophic bacteria (PPB) and microalgae of five agri-industrial wastewaters (pork, poultry, red meat, dairy and sugar) to recover carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorous as a microbial product. The mediators have different advantages, with PPB offering moderate removals (up to 74% COD, 80% NH 4 -N, 55% PO 4 -P) but higher yields (>0.75 gCOD removed gCOD added −1 ) and a more consistent, PPB dominated (>50%) product, with a higher crude protein product (>0.6 gCP gVSS −1 ). The microalgae tests achieved a better removal outcome (up to 91%COD, 91% NH 4 -N, 73%PO 4 -P), but with poorer quality product, and <30% abundance as algae.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
