  • Title: Coliform and helminth eggs removal in a combined UASB reactor-baffled pond system in Brazil: performance evaluation and mathematical modelling.
    Author: von Sperling M, Chernicharo CA, Soares AM, Zerbini AM.
    Journal: Water Sci Technol; 2002; 45(10):237-42. PubMed ID: 12188551.
    Abstract:
    The paper presents the monitoring results of a pilot UASB reactor followed by a baffled polishing pond treating domestic sewage in Brazil. Longitudinal profiles of E coli and helminth eggs along the baffled pond have been undertaken. The experimental results have been compared with von Sperling's model for coliform removal and Ayres' model for helminth eggs removal, and the fitting was considered satisfactory in both cases. The distribution of the helminth species along the system is also presented.
