Haig, Sarah-Jane. "Characterising the functional ecology of slow sand filters through environmental genomics." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2014. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/5523/.

Abstract:
Today the water industry faces a huge challenge in supplying a sustainable, energy efficient and safe supply of drinking water to an increasing world population. Slow sand filters (SSFs) have been used for hundreds of years to provide a safe and reliable source of potable drinking water, with minimal energy requirements. However, a lack of knowledge pertaining to the treatment mechanisms, particularly the biological processes, underpinning SSF operation, has meant SSFs are still operated as “black boxes”. This lack of knowledge pertaining to the underlying ecology and ecophysiology limits the

Connelly, Stephanie. "Ecology, physiology and performance in high-rate anaerobic digestion." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2016. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/7414/.

Full text
Abstract:
The design demands on water and sanitation engineers are rapidly changing. The global population is set to rise from 7 billion to 10 billion by 2083. Urbanisation in developing regions is increasing at such a rate that a predicted 56% of the global population will live in an urban setting by 2025. Compounding these problems, the global water and energy crises are impacting the Global North and South alike. High-rate anaerobic digestion offers a low-cost, low-energy treatment alternative to the energy intensive aerobic technologies used today. Widespread implementation however is hindered by th

Grydaki, Nikoletta. "Microbial characterisation of bioaerosols from indoor environments using molecular techniques." Thesis, University of Essex, 2017. http://repository.essex.ac.uk/23077/.

Full text
Abstract:
Nowadays, the quality of air in the indoor environment is of increasing concern as it is estimated that the majority of people in developed countries spend about 85% of their time in various indoor micro-environments. The biological fraction of airborne particulate matter has become of increasing interest owing to the potential allergenic and pathogenic nature of airborne micro-organisms. Biological aerosols are ubiquitous and abundant in the air we breathe in the built environment and despite the recognition of the importance of bioaerosol exposure on human health, relatively little is known

Mine, Takashi. "Laser and plasma air decontamination." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2010. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/2276/.

Abstract:
This research investigated novel decontamination methods of airborne microorganisms in enclosed public spaces. There are many ways the pathogenic micro-organisms can be transmitted from one body to another, which includes for example, physical contact between the contaminated surface to another, transfer of infected blood from a donor to another medium, or respiratory infections where the large droplets containing micro-organisms caused by talking, sneezing or coughing can infect another whether by direct or close contact, and airborne transmission where the tiny aerosol droplets containing th

Bautista, de los Santos Quyen Melina. "Towards a predictive framework for microbial management in drinking water systems." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2017. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/8261/.

Full text
Abstract:
The application of DNA sequencing-based approaches to drinking water microbial ecology has revealed the presence of an abundant and diverse microbiome; therefore, the possibility of harnessing drinking water (DW) microbial communities is an attractive prospect in order to address some of the current and emerging challenges in the sector. Moreover, these multiple challenges suggest that a shift in the DW sector, from a “reactive and sanctioning” paradigm to a “due diligence/proactive” based approach may be the key in identifying potentially adverse events. My research project has focused on the

Abstract:
The discovery of DNA has been one of the biggest catalysts in genomic research. Sequencing has enabled us to access the wealth of information encoded in DNA and has provided the basis for ground-breaking achievements such as the first complete human genome sequence. Furthermore, it has tremendously advanced our understanding of life-threatening genetic disorders and bacterial and viral infections. With the recent advent of next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, sequencing became accessible to the majority of researchers and made metagenomic sequencing widely available. However, to real
