“…Qingdao Airport in China, which transported 8.2 million passengers in 2008, uses membrane bioreactors to treat its effluent. According to Liu et al (2007), the system cost $800,000, has the capacity to treat 1000 m 3 /d and occupies an area of 10,000 m 2 . The treated effluent is reused in the maintenance of the airport complex: 30% for afforestation, 40% for irrigation of green areas, 20% for the fire control system and 10% is discharged.…”

“…Compared with conventional activated sludge (CAS) process, MBR technology has great advantages because of its good and stable effluent, convenient operation, small footprint, less sludge production and shock load resistant capability [1][2][3]11]. Therefore, MBR is an attractive option for decentralized and reuse sites, such as sports and leisure club [11], airport [12], etc. Nevertheless, until now very limited information is available on wastewater treatment and reuse for supermarkets, which play an important role in daily life of modern society.…”

Wastewater from multifunctional supermarkets usually features with large fluctuation of flow and pollutants, and shows significantly different characteristics from domestic wastewater because of its extensive sources and high concentration of oil substances. Membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology with proper oil pretreatment process is attractive for supermarket wastewater treatment in metropolitans because of its small footprint, excellent and stable permeate quality, convenient operation, and shock load resistant capability. Operation results of two lab-scale MBRs under different organic loads demonstrated that MBR technology could yield excellent permeate quality, but the stable operation cycle was relatively short compared with MBRs for domestic wastewater treatment. Analysis on membrane fouling showed that the high concentration of oil substances (especially oil and grease) in supermarket wastewater was the main cause for membrane permeability deterioration, and the MBR with higher organic load demonstrated better resistant capability for membrane fouling by oil. On the basis of lab-scale MBRs, proper hydraulic retention time (HRT) and more efficient oil pretreatment process were adopted for the design of full-scale supermarket wastewater treatment system. With dissolved-air flotation process as an oil pretreatment process, permeate COD and NH 4 -N in the fullscale MBR for supermarket wastewater treatment were respectively 36.8 and 4.1 mg/L on average, and stable membrane permeability was achieved during 132 day stable operation after 28 day start-up period.

One way to reduce water consumption in urban areas is by using alternative sources of supply that can be provided by collecting rainwater and reusing wastewater for less restricted purposes. Thus, this study evaluated the characteristics of effluents produced by the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) of São Paulo International Airport (SPIA), Brazil, in order to reuse it in non‐potable situations. The results achieved, indicated high efficiency in the biological system utilized by SPIA. The removal rates is equal to or >90% for most of the parameters analyzed, among them, fluoride, salinity, nitrite, nitrate, ammonium nitrogen, total nitrogen, phosphorus, sedimentable solids, turbidity, conductivity, apparent color, chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand, total organic carbon, fecal coliforms, and oils and greases. Despite the final effluents were good enough to be launched in the local streams, they shall be submitted to a complementary treatment in order to fit some quality parameters to be reused for specific demands (landscape irrigation, toilet flushing, vehicle washing, fire fighting, and dust control).
