  The paper reports the results of an experimental study aimed at comparing two configurations of a full-scale wastewater treatment plant (WWTP): conventional activated sludge (CAS) and oxic-settling-anaerobic process (OSA) with intermittent aeration (IA). A comprehensive monitoring campaign was carried out to assess multiple parameters for comparing the two configurations: carbon and nutrient removal, greenhouse gas emissions, respirometric...

  The presence of fluoride ions (F-) in nitrogen-rich wastewater from photovoltaic and semiconductor industries introduces a significant challenge to biological treatment processes, particularly for the innovative partial denitrification (PD) process, which supplies nitrite for anaerobic ammonium oxidation (Anammox). This study provides the first comprehensive and systematic investigation of the effects of F- stress on the granule-based...
