Abstract

This publication, 'Nature-Based Solutions for Wastewater Treatment,' explores the application of nature-based solutions (NBS) to enhance wastewater treatment processes. It presents a series of factsheets and case studies that highlight the benefits of integrating natural ecosystems into sanitation facilities. The book emphasizes the importance of sustainable development goals, particularly in improving water quality and ecosystem restoration. It showcases how NBS, such as treatment wetlands and stabilization ponds, can be effective in both urban and rural settings that lack centralized systems. The publication aims to provide a consolidated evidence base for the use of NBS, demonstrating their ecological and economic advantages. It is intended for environmental scientists, engineers, urban planners, and policymakers interested in sustainable wastewater management.

Abstract

This book explores the innovative use of Microbial Desalination Cells (MDC) as a low-energy solution for desalinating water and treating wastewater. It presents the findings of the EU-funded MIDES project, which developed the world's largest MDC demonstrator. The book covers the principles and design of MDC technology, which combines biological wastewater treatment with desalination using ion exchange membranes, eliminating the need for external energy input. This approach significantly reduces energy consumption compared to traditional reverse osmosis methods. Aimed at professionals and researchers in water treatment and environmental engineering, the book details the scaling-up process, technological advancements, and the development and testing of pilot plants. The work is crucial for advancing sustainable water management technologies.

Abstract

This dissertation by Hristina Bodin explores the effectiveness of constructed wetlands (CWs) in wastewater treatment, focusing on the influence of vegetation, hydraulic conditions, and data analysis methods. The research, conducted in pilot-scale systems in Kenya and Sweden, examines the treatment of phosphorus, ammonium-nitrogen, and suspended solids. It highlights the importance of vegetation management and nutrient uptake for maintaining low effluent levels, especially during dry seasons. The study also emphasizes the impact of data analysis methods on evaluating CW performance, suggesting that careful selection of these methods is crucial for accurate assessments. Intended for researchers and professionals in environmental science and engineering, the work aims to enhance understanding of CWs' role in sustainable water resource management.
