Domestic wastewater is one of the most interested environmental issues in Vietnam, especially in big cities and suburban residential areas. Most of the wastewater was not treated in the right way before discharging to environment. In this research, the author used water hyacinth as a main aquatic plant in aquatic pond model to treat wastewater. The experiment was operated continuously in 1 year with hydraulic retention time (HRT) is 11 and 18 days. Hydraulic loading rate (HRL) is 300 and 500 m3/ha/day, respectively. Treatment efficiency of the model for TSS is 90% (remaining 6 -12mg/l); COD, BOD5 is 63 - 81% (remaining 10 - 48mg/l); TP is 48 – 50% (remaining 3.5 - 9.8mg/l); TKN is 63 - 75% (remaining 8 - 17mg/l). Polluted parameters in effluent were lower than A and B levels of Vietnam standard QCVN 14: 2008/BTNMT and QCVN 40: 2011/BTNMT. The doubling time of water hyacinth in summer is 18days, and in autumn and winter is 28.5 days. Experiment results showed that we can use water hyacinth in aquatic pond to treat domestic wastewater with medium scale. We can apply this natural treatment method for residential areas by utilizing existing natural ponds and abandoned agricultural land with capacity up to 500m3/ha day. However, to get better efficiency we should combine with other aquatic plant species to treat wastewater and improve environmental landscape. / Nước thải – xử lý nước thải sinh hoạt hiện đang là một trong những vấn đề môi trường được quan tâm tại Việt Nam nhất là tại các thành phố lớn và các khu dân cư. Hầu hết lượng nước thải chưa được xử lý đúng cách trước khi thải ra môi trường. Trong nghiên cứu này, tác giả sử dụng mô hình hồ thủy sinh và sử dụng cây Bèo lục bình để xử lý nước thải sinh hoạt của một khu dân thuộc huyện Từ Liêm, tại khu vực này nước thải bị thải trực tiếp vào sông Nhuệ. Thực nghiệm đã được tiến hành trong khoảng thời gian một năm, trải qua các mùa của khu vực miền Bắc với hai chế độ vận hành HRT là 18 và 11 ngày, tương ứng với tải trọng thủy lực HRL là 300 và 500 m3/ha/ngày. Kết quả cho thấy mô hình thủy sinh sử dụng cây bèo lục bình cho kết quả tốt, hiệu suất xử lý với các chất ô nhiễm đạt được như sau: chất rắn lơ lửng đạt 90%, COD, BOD5 đạt 63 - 81%, Phốt pho tổng giảm tới 48 -50%, Nitơ tổng giảm tới 63 - 75%. Hàm lượng các chất ô nhiễm trong nước thải đầu ra của mô hình đều thấp hơn ngưỡng A và B của các tiêu chuẩn QCVN 14: 2008/BTNMT và QCVN 40: 2011/BTNMT. Bên cạnh đó tác giả cũng đã xác định định được tốc độ sinh trưởng của cây bèo tại khu vực miền Bắc là 18 ngày vào mùa hè và 28.5 ngày vào mùa thu đông. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy có thể sử dụng bèo lục bình để xử lý nước thải sinh hoạt, với qui mô vừa và nhỏ và nên áp dụng cho các khu vực ven đô, nông thôn nơi có diện tích đất rộng hoặc tại các hồ sinh thái của các khu đô thị. Tuy nhiên, để hiệu quả tốt hơn ta cần kết hợp với nhiều loại thực vật thủy sinh khác để ngoài tác dụng xử lý nước thải mà còn tạo cảnh quan môi trường xung quanh.

Introduction: Le principal objectif de cette étude est de mesurer l’effet du GDF-5 sur l’homéostasie du cartilage. Le GDF-5 est un gène de susceptibilité de l’OA faisant partie de la famille des BMPs et qui favorise la synthèse du cartilage. Le but de notre étude a été de déterminer l’effet du GDF-5 sur le métabolisme catabolique ainsi que sur l’équilibre global des chondrocytes, principalement au niveau de l’Aggrécan. Méthode : Des chondrocytes arthrosiques canins et humains OA ont été exposés au GDF-5. L’expression des ARNm et des protéines a été analysée afin d’évaluer la production de l’Aggrécan et le ratio Col-II/Col-I au niveau des facteurs anaboliques et du phénotype. Pour le catabolisme, l’expression et l’activité des aggrécanases ADAMTS-4 et ADAMTS-5 ont été mesurées. Les épitopes NITEGE et CTX-II ont aussi été quantifiés dans le liquide synovial canin après des injections intraarticulaires de GDF-5. Résultats : Le GDF-5 provoque une augmentation de l’activité cellulaire des chondrocytes canins et humains. Pour les ARNm et l’expression protéique, le GDF-5 augmente l’expression de l’Aggrécan alors que les facteurs cataboliques le diminuent. Le phénotype reste inchangé en présence du produit, sauf à haute dose où on augmente le ColI. L’activité des aggrécanases diminue puisque l’épitope NITEGE diminue alors que le CTX-II augmente dans l’articulation. Conclusion : En somme, les facteurs anaboliques du cartilage sont favorisés, alors que les facteurs cataboliques sont diminués par le GDF-5. Cette action double permet d’illustrer l’effet du GDF-5, le classant comme un potentiel médicament modifiant la maladie de l’OA qui mérite d’être étudiée. / Purpose: The objective of this study is to assess the effect of GDF-5 on cartilage homeostasis. GDF-5 is a susceptibility gene for OA and member of the BMP super family. Studies have shown that it can increase expression of anabolic factors in chondrocytes. Therefore, our study indentifies how GDF-5 influences this metabolism and the global homeostasis of chondrocytes, aiming mainly towards Aggrecan. Methods : Osteoarthritic (OA) chondrocytes from canine and human models were exposed to GDF-5. Protein expressions, along with mRNA expression were assessed in order to investigate Aggrecan production and the ratio of Col-II/Col-I, for the anabolic phenotype markers. The aggrecanases ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 and their global activity were assed for the catabolic factors. The NITEGE and CTX-II epitope were also measured in synovial fluid of Pond-Nuki dogs that received intraarticular GDF-5 injections. Results : GDF-5 increases chondrocyte cellular activity, in our canine and human models. Both mRNA and protein expression of the chondrocytes Aggrecan were increased and the aggrecanases expression and activity were decreased. Collagen ratio did not show a phenotype, except et high dosage where the Col-I production is induced. Aggrecanase activity was lowered while CTX-II was increased. Conclusion : In conclusion, the anabolic cellular activity of OA chondrocytes increases while the catabolic factors decrease in presence of GDF-5. This double action illustrates the global effect of GDF-5, identifying it as a potential disease modifying factor of OA that should be further investigated.

En 1996, la FAO a reconnu le rôle des agriculteurs dans la construction des ressources génétiques. Dans ce contexte, l'objectif général du projet PLANTADIV, dans lequel s'inscrit cette thèse, est d'appréhender comment les facteurs anthropiques et biologiques interagissent et façonnent la diversité génétique des plantes cultivées dans le bassin du lac Tchad. Dans cette région, les populations ont mis au point une innovation agricole originale : l'utilisation en contre-saison de terres argileuses inondées pour repiquer du sorgho. Les variétés de sorgho repiqué sont capables de puiser dans les réserves hydriques du sol pour accomplir leur cycle végétatif en saison sèche sans autre apport d'eau. Le sorgho repiqué connaît un large développement dans la région depuis la moitié du XXe siècle. Le projet de thèse se focalise sur l'estimation de la diversité génétique des sorghos repiqués et sur les mécanismes biologiques et génétiques qui ont pu contribuer à sa structuration intra et inter variétale. Nous avons également entrepris de retracer l'histoire évolutive des sorghos repiqués en nous appuyant essentiellement sur des outils de génétique des populations pour discuter les hypothèses géographiques et historiques existantes. Cette étude a mis en évidence qu'au moins deux événements de dessaisonalisation avaient eu lieu à partir de sorghos pluviaux provenant de deux groupes génétiques différents. Les sorghos repiqués sont plus différenciés que les sorghos pluviaux. Ceci peut s'expliquer en partie par les pratiques paysannes : les sorghos pluviaux sont échangés plutôt via les amis, la famille et les voisins, alors que les sorghos repiqués le sont plutôt via les marchés. De par les nombreux échanges de semence entre les différentes populations humaines dans cette région, l'étude phylogénétique n'a pas permis de mettre en évidence le(s) lieu(x) d'origine de dessaisonalisation.La seconde partie de ce travail a été consacré à la biologie de la reproduction du sorgho repiqué. Les méthodes de calcul indirectes et directes ont montrées que le sorgho repiqué est, comme le sorgho pluvial, préférentiellement autofécondé. Le taux moyen chez le sorgho repiqué est cependant plus faible (1,8%) que pour le sorgho pluvial (12%). De même, les variations d'allofécondation entre des panicules d'un même type nommé semblent plus faibles que pour le sorgho pluvial. La dernière partie de la thèse est consacrée aux impacts des pratiques agricoles sur la structuration de la diversité génétique des sorghos repiqués à une échelle locale. Les analyses génétiques ont montré, que ce soit pour le village de Djongdong ou celui de Bouzar, situés à l'extrême Nord du Cameroun, que pour un agriculteur donné, chaque type nommé correspond à une entité génétique. De plus, un même morphotype chez différents agriculteurs correspond aussi à une entité génétique. Les modes de gestion des semences et les pratiques culturales ont été analysés, elles influencent peu la structuration de la diversité génétique du sorgho repiqué. / In 1996, FAO has recognized the role of farmers in building and managing genetic resources. This work is part of the project PLANTADIV which main objective is to understand how biological and anthropogenic factors interact and shape diversity of cultivated plants in the Lake Chad Basin. In this region, people have developed an original agricultural innovation: the use in dry-season of flooded clay soils for transplanting sorghum. Transplanted sorghum varieties are able to tap into soil moisture reserves to complete their growth cycle in the dry-season without any water supply. Transplanted sorghum cultivation undertook a large development in the region since the middle of the XX century.The thesis project focuses on the estimation of the genetic diversity of planted sorghum and on biological and genetic mechanisms that may have contributed to its structuration both within and between landraces. We also undertook to trace the evolutionary history of planted sorghum by relying primarily on population genetics approaches to elaborate over geographical and historical hypotheses.This study revealed that at least two events of deseasonalization occurred from rain- sorghum pools from two different genetic groups. Differentiation of dry-season sorghum is stronger than that of rain-sorghum. This may be partially due to social practices: rainy sorghum are mainly exchanged through friends, families and neighbors as planted sorghum seeds are often obtain from markets. Extensive seed exchange between different human populations across the region may have blurred the geographical pattern of the genetic diversity, not allowing us to identify potential sites for deseasonalization.The second part of this work is devoted to the reproductive biology of dry-season sorghum. Direct and indirect estimation methods have shown that dry-season sorghum is, as rain sorghum, preferably selfing. Average level of out crossing is nevertheless lower in dry-season sorghum (1.8%) than it is in rain-sorghum (12%). Within landraces, variations are also smaller for dry-season sorghum than for rain-sorghum.The last part of the thesis is devoted to the impacts of agricultural practices on the structure of the genetic diversity of dry-season sorghum at a local scale. Genetic analyzes have shown that in both studied villages of Djongdong and Bouzar, located in the extreme north of Cameroon, each landrace named by a farmer corresponds to a genetic entity. In addition, the same morphological type among different farmers corresponds to a genetic entity. Modes of seed management and cultural practices were analyzed; they seem to have little influence on the structure of the genetic diversity of dry-season sorghum.

Les séries sédimentaires, prélevées dans les écosystèmes aquatiques terrestres, constituent des enregistrements ou des archives de l'état d'un système à un instant donné du passé et de son évolution en relation avec la variabilité environnementale naturelle et anthropique. Dans le cadre de cette thèse, l'enregistrement sédimentaire d'un étang piscicole, a été étudié suivant une approche pluridisciplinaire. En particulier, la caractérisation à l'échelle moléculaire et macromoléculaire de la matière organique des sédiments de l'étang de Lansquenet a permis de reconstruire l'histoire de son bassin versant. Basé sur l'utilisation de biomarqueurs et de rapports moléculaires (rapport terrigène/aquatique : TAR(HC), C29/C27(ST), aquatic/macrophyte proxy : Paq, pérylène, syringyle/vanillyle, cinnamyle/vanillyle, acide/aldéhyde des unités syringyles et vanillyle), ce travail a permis d'appréhender, à l'échelle d'un bassin versant, les variations pluriséculaires des sources de la matière organique (terrestre et/ou aquatique, naturelle et/ou anthropique), mais aussi des conditions de dépôt et de préservation, induits par les changements d'usage des sols et les impacts anthropiques. La confrontation de ces résultats avec les données sédimentologiques, minéralogiques et palynologiques a permis de valider la pertinence et la sensibilité de ces biomarqueurs par rapport aux variations environnementales et paléoenvironnementales. Cette étude met ainsi en évidence la succession des usages de ce site depuis un milieu marécageux jusqu'à la création et l'exploitation de l'étang piscicole jalonnée d'épisodes d'assec / The sedimentary series, collected in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, constitute records or archives of the state of a system at a given moment of the past and relate its evolution in relation to natural disturbances and anthropogenic pressure. In the following manuscript, the sedimentary record of a fish pond has been studied using a multidisciplinary approach. In particular, the characterization at the molecular and macromolecular scale of the organic matter in sediments of the pond Lansquenet allowed to reconstruct the history of its watershed. On the basis of biomarkers and molecular ratios (terrestrial to aquatic ratio: TAR(HC), C29/C27(ST), aquatic/macrophyte proxy: Paq, perylene, syringyl/vanillyl, cinnamyl/vanillyl, acid/aldehyde of syringyl and vanillyl units), this work has enabled us to understand, at the scale of a watershed, the changes in organic matter origins (terrestrial and/or aquatic, natural and/or anthropogenic) over a period of several centuries. Moreover, the results unraveled the depositional conditions as well as preservation conditions in the sedimentary profile, directly influenced by land use and human activities. The confrontation of organic geochemical data with sedimentological, mineralogical and palynological data was a real benefit and validated the use of a series of organic compounds as relevant and sensitive biomarkers regarding environmental and paleoenvironmental modifications. This study highlighted thus the succession of use of the Lansquenet site from a swampy area to the settlement of a fish pond punctuated by drier periods

In this diploma thesis, I deal with the influence of the sampling site on water quality in natural bathing lakes (Hostivar reservoir, Seberak pond and Vyzlovka pond) in this. I have established that hygienically significant kinds of phytoplankton may differ in terms of water quality especially where there are cyanobacteria constituting water bloom. Surface water bloom may be moved by wind to the lee side of the water body (Microcystis sp.). Aphanizomenon flos-aquae water bloom floating in water column can be affected by wind and by water flow (which may be partly affected by wind as well). With the prevailing fibrous Planktothrix agardhii which does not connstitute water bloom the concentration of chlorophyll-a and cyanobacterial cell abundance in individual sampling sites are similar although the concentration of chlorophyll-a a is about 200 g.l-1 . Microcystis sp. and Scenedesmus sp. survive under eutrophic conditions in competition. From the microbiological perspective, water quality can differ within a single sampling site in places at a distance of less than 100 m. Microbial contamination can be caused by bathers, water birds, farm animals and probably by the removing of microorganisms from sand, mud and sediments on the beach or shore. Rain episodes probably increase the abundance of E.coli...

La présente thèse porte sur des travaux expérimentaux et de modélisation visant à étudier les processus bactériens et algaux au sein d’une lagune a haut rendement algal (HRAP). Un système pilote HRAP a été construit et les impacts des différentes conditions opérationnelles sur l’hydrodynamique et le transfert gaz/liquide du pilote ont été étudiés. De plus, le rapport d'inoculation optimal entre les algues et les bactéries (Al-Bac) a également été étudié. La biomasse Al-Bac a ensuite été inoculée dans le système HRAP pour une évaluation à long terme du traitement des eaux usées et de la récupération des nutriments. Le HRAP dans cette étude peut être appliqué en traitement secondaire de eaux usées ou comme étape primaire éliminant rapidement les charges élevées de DCO et de TKN des retour en tête de digesteurs anaérobies (centrats). Les résultats expérimentaux obtenus ont également été utilisés pour calibrer et valider des modèles de type « boîte noire » et mécanistes. Les deux modèles peuvent décrire le fonctionnement à long terme du système. Le premier permet ainsi d'évaluer rapidement les performances du système ainsi que de le dimensionner, tandis que le second simule avec succès les résultats à long (général) et à court (détaillé) terme. L'étape suivante devrait être l'application du système à grande échelle. / The thesis focused on both experimental and modeling works aiming to investigate the algal bacterial processes in High-Rate Algal Pond (HRAP) system. A pilot HRAP system was built and the impacts of different operational conditions on hydraulic and gas transfer rate of the pilot were investigated. Moreover, optimal inoculation ratio between algae and bacteria (Al-Bac) was also studied. The Al-Bac biomass was theninoculated in the HRAP system for long term assessment of wastewater treatment and nutrient recovery. The HRAP in this study can be applied for secondary treatment application or as a primary step removing rapidly high loads of COD and TKN from centrate wastewater. Experimental results obtained were also employed in calibrating and validating black box and comprehensive algal bacterial models. Both models coulddescribe the system in long term. The former was adequate for giving quick assessment of the system performance as well as sizing application while the latter successfully simulated the results both in long (general) and short (detailed) time scale. A next step should be applying the system in large scale.

Os microorganismos estão entre os maiores responsáveis pela transformação dos compostos orgânicos em uma lagoa de estabilização e são a chave do sucesso deste tratamento. A utilização de técnicas de biologia molecular em conjunto é uma das melhores formas para obter resultados mais confiáveis. A estrutura da comunidade microbiana na lagoa de estabilização facultativa da estação de tratamento de esgoto doméstico do Município de Cajati foi descrita baseada nos padrões dos fragmentos do gene RNAr 16S por PCR-DGGE, CARD-FISH, biblioteca de clones de gene RNAr 16S e sequenciamento. Os padrões obtidos com o DGGE foram correlacionados com as variáveis ambientais coletadas por análise de redundância (RDA). As amostras foram coletadas em três períodos para o estudo da variação temporal, coletou-se em três profundidades (superfície, 0,7 m e 1,5 m) para o estudo espacial vertical e em nove pontos a 0,7 m de profundidade para o estudo espacial horizontal da comunidade. / Microorganisms are amongst the most responsible for the conversion of sewage organic compounds and they are the key of the treatment success. The combination of two or more molecular techniques in this kind of assessment allows getting more accurate results concerning a microbial community. The facultative stabilization pond microbial community structure of domestic sewage treatment from Cajati city was characterized based on 16S RNAr gene fragments patterns from PCR-DGGE, FISH, 16S RNAr gene clone library and sequencing. The patterns obtained by DGGE were co-related to environmental variables by redundancy analysis (RDA). The samples were collected in three intervals to study the seasonal variation, it was collected in three depth (surface, 0,7 m and 1,5 m) to the vertical assessment and in nine spots at 0,7 m depth for the horizontal assessment of the microbial community.

Atualmente, as perdas econômicas são uma realidade devido ao problema de off flavor em pescado, ocasionados pela qualidade da água dos criatórios e pelo manejo empregado no cultivo, nem sempre satisfatórios. Buscou-se a avaliação microbiológica, físico-química e sensorial dos peixes, com a finalidade de detectar prováveis alterações que estivessem comprometendo a qualidade do pescado. Com o objetivo de detectar e controlar o off flavor em tilápias cultivadas foi sugerido a depuração antes da distribuição e venda e a utilização da defumação como meio de mascarar este problema. O monitoramento da qualidade do pescado iniciou-se com as análises microbiológicas, físico-químicas e biológica da água dos tanques de cultivo e de depuração. Os peixes provenientes de área de cultivo do Estado de São Paulo, região de Artur Nogueira, da espécie tilápia do Nilo, Oreochromis niloticus, foram submetidos à depuração (3, 5 e 7 dias) e a seguir foram eviscerados e filetados. Os peixes submetidos à depuração e o controle foram comparados entre si para posterior escolha do melhor tempo para depuração; estes, não apresentaram diferenças significativas (p>0,05) para composição centesimal, nitrogênio não protéico - NNP, bases nitrogenadas voláteis totais - BNVT e pH nos tempos de depuração. O processo de depuração provocou perda de peso mais intensa nos três primeiros dias de depuração. Através das análises sensoriais verificou-se que os peixes, que corresponderam ao controle, apresentaram maior intensidade de off flavor quando comparados aos demais. A depuração por 3 dias para o atributo odor apresentou eficiência semelhante, estatisticamente (Teste F), ao tratamento por 5 dias porém, foi considerada diferente do tratamento por 7 dias. Para o atributo sabor os tratamentos de 3, 5 e 7 dias não diferiram, estatisticamente, entre si. A água do tanque de cultivo apresentou problemas de eutrofização e presença de geosmina, ao contrário da água do tanque de depuração que apresentou-se límpida e ausente de geosmina. Os peixes que não sofreram depuração (controle), foram submetidos à defumação. Os filés de peixe in natura e os defumados foram comparados entre si, quanto a composição centesimal e verificou-se que estes foram afetados significativamente (Teste F). Para o nitrogênio não protéico - NNP, as bases nitrogenadas voláteis totais - BNVT e o pH não houve alteração significativa (p>0,05) quanto aos tratamentos. Através das análises sensoriais verificou-se que os peixes in natura apresentaram maior intensidade de off flavor quando comparados aos defumados. Para os atributos odor e sabor houve diferença significativa (p>0,05) entre os tratamentos. O processo de depuração permitiu bons resultados quanto a eliminação de off flavor da tilápia, pois, através das análises realizadas, pode-se aferir o tempo ideal de 5 dias de depuração conduzida em um tanque com água corrente e limpa. Quando se comparou o pescado defumado com o pescado in natura, o primeiro recebeu uma maior aceitação pelos degustadores. O processo de defumação é uma forma de mascarar a presença do off flavor; é um processo simples, pouco oneroso e que pode ser adotado prontamente pelos produtores como forma de agregar valor ao pescado. / Currently, economic losses are a reality due to the fish off flavor provoked by the handling used in the culture and by the water quality of the fish tanks, which are not always satisfactory. Microbiological, physical-chemical and sensory evaluations of the fish were carried out in order to detect probable alterations that would compromise the fish quality. The off flavor detection, as well as, the suggestion for depuration before distribution and sale, and the use of the smoking as a way of disguising this problem were the objectives of this research. Microbiological, physical-chemical and biological analyses of the waters in the fish and the depuration ponds were performed to monitor the quality of the fish. The fish- Nile Tilapias (Oreochromis niloticus) from the area of Arthur Nogueira, in the State of São Paulo - was submitted to the depuration (3, 5 and 7 days). The fish submitted to the depuration and the control fish were compared in order to find the best depuration period. No significant differences (p>0.05) for centesimal composition, non-protein nitrogen - NNP, total base volatile nitrogen BNVT, and pH were found among the depuration periods. The depuration process provoked a more intense weight loss in the first three days for depuration. Through the sensory analyses, we could verify that the control fish presented a greater off flavor intensity than the others. The three-day depuration showed a similar statistical efficiency (F Test) than that of the five-day treatment, but differed from that of the 7-day treatment. As for the flavor attribute, the 3, 5, and 7-day treatments did not show a significant difference, statistically. The water in the fish pond presented eutrophization problems and presence of geosmine, whereas the water in the depuration pond was clear and geosmine-free. The fish that did not go through depuration (control) were submitted to smoking. Fresh fish fillets were compared to the smoked ones. As to the centesimal composition, we verified that they were significantly affected (F Test). As to non-protein nitrogen - NNP, total base volatile nitrogen - BNVT and pH, there were no significant changes (p>0.05) either among the treatments. Through sensory analysis, we verified that the fresh fish presented a more intense off flavor than the smoked ones. As to odor and flavor, there was a significant (p>0.05) difference among the treatments. The depuration process was efficient in the elimination of the off-flavor in the tilapia, for, according to our analyses, we could conclude that the ideal period for this elimination was 5 days of depuration, carried out in a pond with clean running water. When compared to the fresh fish, the smoked fish was better accepted by the panelists. The smoking process is a way of disguising the off flavor; it is a simple, inexpensive process, which can be readily adopted by producers a way of adding value to the fish.

Este trabalho experimental apresenta os resultados da avaliação do desempenho de uma instalação piloto, composta por reator UASB seguido de lagoa aerada aeróbia e lagoa de decantação, no tratamento dos esgotos afluente a ETE - Jundiaí, que contém elevada contribuição de despejos industriais. O reator UASB e a lagoa de decantação tem volume útil de 3,0 m3 e 2,0 m3, respectivamente. O volume da lagoa aerada aeróbia é variável entre 7,2 m3 e 21,6 m3 de modo a permitir variar o tempo de detenção hidráulica. O sistema foi avaliado em termos da eficiência de remoção de DQO, DBO5, sólidos suspensos, nitrogênio total, fósforo total e cor verdadeira para tempos de detenção hidráulica na lagoa aerada aeróbia variando entre 1,0 e 3,5 dias mantendo, tanto no reator UASB quanto, na lagoa de decantação o tempo de detenção constante em 8,0 horas e 1,8 dia, respectivamente. O sistema completo apresentou uma eficiência de remoção de DQO total entre 85% e 87%, de DBO5 total entre 92% e 96%, de SST entre 81% e 87%, de SSV entre 80 e 88%, de nitrogênio total entre 55 e 57%, de fósforo total entre 60 e 70% e de cor verdadeira entre 50 e 60%, para tempos de detenção hidráulica na lagoa aerada aeróbia variando entre 1,5 e 3,5 dias. O reator UASB foi responsável pela remoção de cerca de 50% da DQO total, 60% da DBO5 total e 40% dos SST do afluente, operando em média com um tempo de detenção hidráulica de 8,0 horas. As eficiências alcançadas no sistema completo produziram um efluente final com uma concentração de DQO total entre 170 e 230 mg/L, de DBO5 total entre 30 e 60 mg/L, de SST entre 30 e 45 mg/L, de SSV entre 24 e 40 mg/L, de nitrogênio total entre 24 e 28 mg NH3/L, de fósforo total entre 3,5 e 5,5 mg P/L e de cor verdadeira entre 375 e 600 mg Pt/L. O sistema pesquisado mostrou-se uma alternativa viável para o tratamento do esgoto afluente à ETE - Jundiaí e poderá resultar em redução da área e em menor consumo de energia que os hoje necessários na ETE - Jundiaí, que emprega um sistema composto por lagoas aeradas aeróbias seguidas de lagoas de decantação. / This experimental investigation was carried out in order to evaluate the performance of a pilot plant, composed of an UASB reactor followed by an aerated lagoon and a settling pond, treating the Wastewater Treatment Plant of Jundiaí city (WWTPJ) influent sewage, which contains in its composition an expressive amount of industrial effluents. The UASB reactor and settling pond have an useful volume of 3.0 m3 and 2.0 m3, respectively. The aerated lagoon volume is variable from 7.2 m3 to 21.6 m3 to make possible the hydraulic retention time variation. The COD, BOD5, suspended solids, total nitrogen, total phosphorus and true colour removal efficiencies of the system were evaluated when the aerated lagoon hydraulic retention time varied from 1.0 to 3.5 days and in the UASB reactor and settling pond was mainteined constant at 8.0 hours and 1.8 day, respectively. The range of removal efficiencies obtained in the system are: 85 - 87% for total COD, 92 - 96% for total BOD5, 81 - 87% for TSS, 80 - 88% for VSS, 55 - 57% for total nitrogen, 60 - 70% for total phosphorus, and 50 - 60% for true color, when the aerated lagoon hydraulic retention time varied from 1.5 to 3.5 days. The UASB reactor operating at 8.0 hours hydraulic retention time removes almost 50% of total COD, 60% of total BOD5 and 40% of TSS from the influent contents. The system performance lead to a final effluent with a total COD, total BOD5, TSS, VSS, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and true color concentrations in the range of: 170 - 230 mg/L, 30 - 60 mg/L and 30 - 45 mg/L, 24 - 40 mg/L, 24 - 28 mg N/L, 3,5 - 5,5 mg P/L and 375 - 600 mg Pt/L, respectively. The system studied is a practicable alternative for the treatment of the WWTPJ influent sewage, probably with less area and energy saving whem compared to the WWTPJ current needs, which uses a system composed by an aerated lagoon followed by a settling pond

Afin de limiter les impacts négatifs des rejets pluviaux urbains stricts (RPUS) sur l’hydraulique et la qualité des milieux naturels, des techniques alternatives sont mises en place. A Strasbourg (France,67), une mare de sédimentation suivie d’un filtre planté de roseaux à écoulement vertical collecte, stocke et traite les eaux de ruissellement d’un bassin versant résidentiel (2,7ha) depuis 5 ans. L’objectif de cette thèse est de (i) déterminer l’efficacité hydraulique et de traitement de la filière, (ii) évaluer les dynamiques de stockage des métaux et des hydrocarbures aromatiques polycycliques en temps de pluie et en temps sec, (iii) anticiper l’impact des variations climatiques sur l’efficacité de la filière, (iv) évaluer le comportement de sorption du cuivre, plomb et zinc dans le filtre et (v) modéliser les flux en entrée et en sortie de la filière. Trois années de suivi hydraulique, hydrologique et physico-chimique sur le site et 13 campagnes de prélèvement en temps pluie ont permis de montrer que les efficacités de la filière sont constantes au cours de l’année. Les RPUS sont caractérisés par de fortes concentrations en zinc, et les concentrations en micropolluants sont dépendantes de l’importance de la pluie. De plus, des expériences réalisées sur le sable du filtre (analyses chimiques, extractions séquentielles, expériences batch) ont montré que la rétention des métaux dans le filtre dépend du pH et de la concentration en métaux. Un modèle basé sur l’équation de Richards a été développé et permet de reproduire avec succès les écoulements verticaux 1D dans le filtre. / Stormwaters are identified as a major source of pollution for waterbodies. Particularly, metals and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in stormwater are known as the most toxic compounds for the fauna and flora. To limit the impact of these micropollutants on hydrosystems quality, stormwater constructed wetlands (SCW) have been built worldwide. This study aims i) to assess the efficiency of a 5-years-old SCW that combined a sedimentation pond followed by a vertical flow sand filter in urban area (Strasbourg 67, France), ii) to determine micropollutants storage in water and soils during dry period, (iii) to investigate the seasonality impacts on SCW performances, (iv) to evaluate copper, lead and zinc sorption behavior on the filter sand and (v) to model micropollutants and rain water fluxes from the catchment to the filter output. 3 years of on-site monitoring and 13 rain event sampling campaigns have shown that SCW hydraulic and treatment performances are constant over the year. Rain water is characterized by high loads of zinc and its micropollutants loads depend on the rain event depth. Then, chemical analyses, sequential extractions and batch experiments performed on the SCW substrate highlight that metals mobility in the filter is affected by pH and metal concentration. A model based on the Richard’s equation has been developed and predicts with success the 1-D vertical flow in the filter.
