Over the last few decades more and more natural wastewater treatment systems have been built in Hungary. The present study is the first step in creating a broad database on the water quality parameters and on the pollutant removal efficiency of these systems. The investigation included 78 plants out of which we analysed 16 systems in detail. Four types of natural methods are evaluated: wetlands, ponds, bio-mechanical combined oxidation (BMKO) systems, and poplar plantations. Pond systems are efficient in ammonium-nitrogen (NH4-N) removal, reducing it with 83% (41-88%). Their chemical oxygen demand (CODCr) removal capacity is only 55% (37-81%). The only BMKO system that could be evaluated performs high CODCr (77%) and total suspended solid (TSS) (89%) removal. Removal of NH4-N and total nitrogen (TN) declines during the years of operation giving an average value of 39% and 49%, respectively. The system is not efficient in phosphorus removal (13%). In wetlands the 71% CODCr (53-96%), and 57% TSS (33-91%) removal provides satisfactory effluent quality most of the time. Wetlands performed low nutrient removal, i.e., 17% (-21-46%) for TN and 26% (-20-92%) for phosphorus. Poplar plantations are very effective in pollutant removal. Even the average removal of each nutrient type is above 75%. Several problems have occurred in the operation of natural treatment systems. However, if carefully planned and constructed, and the required maintenance work is done properly, they can be possible alternatives for wastewater treatment.

Abstract In this study, the variables of zooplankton and water quality were investigated in the Can Giuoc River, Southern Vietnam. Zooplankton was monitored in April and September 2015 at 5 sampling sites in the river. Some basic water quality parameters were also tested, including pH, total suspended solid (TSS), dissolved oxygen (DO), biological oxygen demand (BOD5), inorganic nitrogen (NH4+), dissolved phosphorus (PO43−), and coliform. The zooplankton biodiversity indices were applied for the water quality assessment. The results showed that pH ranged from 6.7 to 7.6 during the monitoring. The TSSs were between 34–117 mg/L. The DO and BOD5 were from 0.6 to 3.8 mg/L and from 6.3 to 13.2 mg/L, respectively. The NH4+ and PO43− concentrations ranged from 0.44 to 3.23 and from 0.08 to 1.85 mg/L, respectively. The coliform number was between 9.3×103–9.3×104 MPN/100 mL. The zooplankton analyses showed that there were 31 species of coelenterates, rotatoria, oligochaetes, cladocerans, copepods, ostracods, mysidacea, and 8 larval types. Thereof, the species of copepods were dominant in the species number. The zooplankton density ranged from 9 500 to 23 600 individuals/m3 with the main dominant species of Moina dubia (Cladocera), Thermocyclops hyalinus, Acartia clausi, Oithona similis (Copepoda), and nauplius copepods. The biodiversity index values during the monitoring were from 1.47 to 1.79 characteristic of mesotrophic conditions of the aquatic environment. Besides, the species richness positively correlated with pH, TSS, DO, BOD5, NH4+, PO43−, and coliform, while the zooplankton densities got a positive correlation with DO, BOD5, NH4+, PO43−, and coliform. The results confirmed the advantage of using zooplankton and its indices for water quality assessment.

This study presents the assessment of selected water quality parameters (WQP) distribution at Putrajaya Lake during the dry and wet season using spatial analysis. The WQP used in this study were dissolved oxygen (DO), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonia-nitrogen (NH3-N), total suspended solid (TSS), pH and temperature. Total thirteen water samples were obtained during both dry and wet seasons from May 2015 until March 2016 distributed throughout the areas. To explore the WQP distribution, Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) was employed. The results have shown that mean values of WQ concentration during dry and wet season are varies accordingly. The highest value parameters of water quality during dry season which are COD (17.2 mg/L), DO (7.11 mg/L) and NH3N (0.94 mg/L). Meanwhile on the wet season, the highest values are recorded for BOD (5.27 mg/L), pH (7.62 mg/L) and TSS (18.4 mg/L) respectively. This has indicated that the concentration of WQP in the lake changed seasonally. Furthermore, among the WQPs; DO, TSS and COD have exhibited significant relationship between others for both seasons.

The feasibility of treating brewery effluent using bio-catalysts (enzymes) was investigated. Carbohydrase, lipase, protease and a mixture enzyme made of carbohydrate and lipase were used. Brewery wastewater samples were collected and analyzed for 96 hrs, at intervals of 12 hrs. The physiochemical properties: biological oxygen demand BOD, chemical oxygen demand COD, total suspended solid (TSS), total dissolved solid TDS, pH, phosphorus (PO4), ammonium nitrogen (NH4-N), total hydrocarbon (THC) were determined using APHA standard method of analysis. The concentrations of the physiochemical properties of the brewery effluent decreased with increasing biodegradation time, for the various enzymes used. However, the different enzymes gave different percentage reductions of each of the physiochemical properties. The order of percentage reduction for the enzyme systems is mixed enzyme > carbohydrase > lipase > protease > control. Hence, the mixed enzyme gave the best results of 90%, 90%, 50%, 100%, 91.6% and 100% reductions for COD, BOD, TSS, NH4-N, PO4 and THC, respectively after 96 hrs. of biotreatment. However, the control gave the least percentage reductions of 6.9%, 5.3%, 16.4%, 7.1%, 5.8% and 50.0% for COD, BOD5, TSS, PO4, NH4-N, and THC respectively.
