Abstract

In this study, a 13-day operation was conducted in order to investigate the effect of Ag-Fe nanoparticles on bacterial growth. To do so, three samples (S1, S2, S3) made of freshly domestic wastewater were treated under anaerobic conditions. S1 was considered as the control batch while 50mg/L of zero valent iron nanoparticles (NZVI) and Ag-Fe bimetallic nanoparticles were added to S2 and S3, respectively. Results showed that the addition of NZVI was effective in activating the bacterial growth. However, Ag-Fe nanoparticles inhibited the bacterial growth. A comparison of the chemical oxygen demand COD of the three samples confirmed the obtained results.
