Effect of oxic/anoxic conditions on the removal of organic micropollutants in the activated sludge process
Among the emerging issues in the field of wastewater treatments, reducing energy
consumption and removal of new organic pollutants have become of primary concern.
With respect to the first goal, alternating oxic/anoxic conditions in the bioreactor
has demonstrated to be a feasible way to ensure the required efficiency of carbon
and nitrogen removal along with energy saving. The aim of the present study was
to investigate if these alternating oxic/anoxic conditions are also capable of boosting
