The effluent quality of a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Hebei Province met the Class I-A standard of "Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants"(GB 18918-2002) (COD≤50 mg/L, TN≤15 mg/L, TP≤0.5 mg/L, NH3-N≤8 mg/L). However, under the guidance of energy...

This study investigates the effectiveness of a combined precipitation and oxidation leaching process in reducing high concentrations of sulphides in tannery effluent from the unhairing bath. First, at precipitation process the influence of operational parameters, such as stirring speeds, pH levels...

The influence of land-use patterns on water quality in the Huaihe River Basin was analyzed using the Nemerow index, correlation and multiple linear regression analysis based on the measured data from 62 sampling sites in the Huaihe River Basin (China). In the point buffer zone, a significant...

Purpose: This study investigates the efficacy of electrochemical remediation techniques in treating hospital wastewater, focusing on parameters including turbidity, color, BOD, COD, DO, coliform, and E. coli. Design/Methodology/Approach: The study conducts a comprehensive analysis of various...

Numerous industrial processes, including petroleum refining, food production, car washes, leather manufacturing, and slaughter houses, generate significant volumes of wastewater due to their substantial water consumption during processing. The presence of oily wastewater has detrimental effects on...

Treatment of tannery effluent is a key issue that requires novel research. The presented work is an attempt to carry out advanced oxidation process in a Multi-orifice Oscillatory Baffled Column using ozone as oxidizer and compare the extent of treatment with sono-catalytic treatment with TiO2 as...

This study aimed to explore the effect of pure oxygen aeration on the generation of soluble microbial products (SMP) when activated sludge was under toxic stress condition of phenol. Two parallel sequencing batch reactors, one with air and the other with pure oxygen aeration, were used to...

Chlorella microbial fuel cells may be an alternative technology for wastewater treatment. Using microalgae and activated sludge as raw materials, a C-MFCs was established, and the effects of different nitrogen and phosphorus ratios in the influent on the electrochemical performance of C-MFCs and the...

Anaerobic digestion of piggery wastewater mediated with biochar was investigated by COD removal rate, methane yield, process stability and microbial community analysis. The results showed that biochar could effectively improve the COD removal rate and methane yield. Compared with blank group, COD...

The management of water pollution has been one of the main problems as people pay more and more attention in the current society to the preservation and repair of the natural environment. In this paper, natural montmorillonite was modified with starch as well as lanthanum chloride. The removal...

The discharge of wastewater from net washing is one of the most significant problems in the marine ecosystem because of its high organic and saline content. Sea water quality is deteriorated every day due to the high amount of organic matter produced in the aquaculture sector. The aim of this study...

This goal of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a new coagulant extract from pumpkin seeds (PSC) for removing turbidity and organic compounds from different natural surface waters. Two design experiment methods, namely central composite design (CCD) and response surface methodology (RSM...

The amount of waste is increasing daily; however, the available land area is limited. This problem can be overcome by segregating waste and other alternatives by accelerating landfill stabilization using landfill bioreactors. In this study, anaerobic bioreactor A with daily use of water and the...

People are prompted to complain about air pollution by offensive odours. They can produce psychological consequences, such as nausea, headaches, lack of appetite, breathing difficulties, and various adverse reactions in some circumstances. Among various industries, the dairy industry emits the most...

Water treatment ecosystem provides important habitats for various bacterial communities, but the response mechanism of this ecosystem under ultraviolet rays is not yet clear. For this reason, 16S rRNA gene sequencing is used to study the bacterial community structure and metabolic pathways under...

Several chemical coagulants previously utilize for wastewater treatment with significant performance in removing heavy metals and other parameters. However, their cost effective and the residual of toxic chemical precipitates that pose problems to human health and the environment. Therefore, using...

In the current study, three different photo-assisted sources were used to evaluate the photo-Fenton oxidation process for the pollutant degradation of mature landfill leachate. Solar, UV, and LED visible light photo sources were adopted in this Fenton process. Fenton dosages (FeSO4 : H2O2) 1:30, 1.5...

The present paper carries for novel modeling that are often used for evaluate the kinetic performance of groundwater reverse osmosis (GWRO) desalination system by empirical correlation with dimensionless parameters. About three hundred dimensionless empirical correlationshave been proposed and...

Poultry slaughterhouse wastewater (PSWW) is a crucial concern fundamentally due to extensive generation and related substantial amounts of recalcitrant organic content due to high COD and oil and grease (O&G) levels. Hybrid advanced oxidation processes are promising, green, and innovative options to...

The dairy industry is one of the industries that continues to grow in Indonesia in line with the large demand for dairy foods. Liquid waste originating from the dairy industry has a special character, namely susceptibility to bacteria. This waste is very easy to decompose and if it is not...

250 million people worldwide suffer from visual impairment. 64% of them wear glasses. More than 80 percent of all eyeglasses worn today have plastic lenses. Plastic lenses made of polycarbonate discs are created through the process of machining which requires the use of a coolant. The ensuing...
