This study was carried out with the aim of using three processes of soil washing, electrofenton and biological leaching method in order to rehabilitate the soil contaminated with lead and phenanthrene around the south Tehran oil refinery. The variables examined in this study are the amount of soil...

The primary aim of this research is to identify the best anaerobic digestion process yield for generating biogas from mixed food waste in the combination of cow manure. For the biogas generation experiment, certain biodegradable domestic organic wastes gathered from restaurants, waste storage...

The purpose of this research was to evaluate the effectiveness of low-cost adsorbents for the removal of MTBE by employing natural kaolin clay with surface modification by KOH. The feasibility of MTBE examination by High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) in aqueous solution was investigated. To...

This study utilized a series of experimental tests, including the Atterberg limit, standard Proctor, permeability, and direct shear tests. Three composites were investigated: 85% fly ash-10% bentonite (V1), 90% fly ash-5% bentonite (V2), and 95% fly ash-0% bentonite (V3). All composites contained 5%...

The unique high-altitude environmental factors in the Linzhi region of Tibet have not been fully investigated in terms of their impact on the microbial mechanisms of water ecology, for which we explored the response of activated sludge microorganisms to different hydraulic retention times (HRT)...

This study emphasis on draining and slowing runoff volumes in arid and semi-arid lands regions using HEC-HMS model linked with various Best Management Practices (BMPs) alternatives. The proposed methods may help significantly in reducing flash flood precipitation and improving instream water quality...

The current research was aimed to investigate the performance of combined persulfate oxidation process and tannin via coagulation-flocculation processes as a post treatment of anaerobically treated palm oil mill effluent (AnT-POME). Different dosages of sodium persulfate (Na2S2O8, 238 g/mol) 0.1 (w...

The City of San Angelo has been imposed on urban flooding and no-point source pollution and develop storm water monitoring and modeling project for managing these storm water issues. This study focuses on the stormwater peak flow reduction and water pollutant improvement by using small serial...

Production of glycerol carbonate (GLC) that is a fuel additive from green solvent dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and biodiesel by-product glycerin is environmentally friendly synthesis. The usage of waste glycerol from biodiesel plant makes the production cost lower. When the membrane aided technique is...

In the present investigation, marine biomass (Posidonia Oceanica) (PO), in both its unmodified PO and basic-modified (Na-PO) forms, was studied for its possible utilisation as a cheap biosorbent for the retention of amoxicillin (AMX). Biosorption studies were carried out in a batch system and the...

With the rising interest for sustainable power source and ecological security, anaerobic digestion of biogas technology has attracted considerable attention within the scientific researchers. This paper proposes a new research achievement on biogas production from Rice Mill Wastewater (RMW) with the...

This review deals with the importance of molybdenum (Mo) in nitrogen fixation in forests as well as the distribution of Mo in the various components of a forest ecosystems and its cycling. With regard to nitrogen (N) fixation in tropical forests, the limiting factor is the availability of phosphorus...

The distribution, stocks and fluxes of Mo were examined in a mountainous fir forest in Greece in two hydrological years. In both years, the fluxes of Mo in throughfall were lower than those in bulk deposition implying Mo retention and probably uptake by tree canopies. The Mo concentration was...

The aim of this work was the application and evaluation of a mathematical model for the simulation of anaerobic hydrolysis and acid production processes. For the description of the processes involved, the Anaerobic Digestion Model ADM1 was employed. The ADM1 implementation in prefermenters is...

Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), such as pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) and as endocrine disrupting compounds, have recently recognized as the next set of pollutants due to their toxic effects on human health and aquatic organisms at very low concentrations. One of...

The present study systematically and comprehensively reviewed different aspects of treating Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) with active treatment and waste materials. The work also critically reviews the status and the factors associated with the treatment process. Although, conventional active methods are...
