The objective of this study is to summarize studies and investigations and show a brief details of different technologies used for the treatment of petroleum wastewater. The wastewater from Petroleum industries and refineries mainly contains oil, organic matter and other compounds. The treatment of...

The aim of this study is to investigate the performance of solar photo-Fenton process (H2O2/Fe2+/Solar) to treat petroleum wastewater from Sohar oil Refinery, Oman. The effect of operating conditions such as pH, reaction time, Fenton ratio, and Fenton reagent concentrations are investigated. The...

In the present study, four beehive matrices (honey, propolis, pollen and bees), sampled from thirteen apiaries from Northern and Western Greece, were analyzed for the presence of Cr, Cu, Mn, Fe, Zn, Mg, and Ca. The proposed method involved microwave digestion with H2O2 and HNO3, dilution with water...

This study describes the removal of Cr (VI) ions from aqueous solutions using silver oxide/sawdust nanocomposite (Ag2O/SD NC) that was prepared using the chemical precipitation method. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR)...

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is an advanced technology that has the technical potential to provide dual advantages: (1) it helps countries maintain their hydrocarbon – driven economic advancement, such as Gulf Corporation Council countries (GCC) and (2) mitigating the negative effects of...

The objective of this study is to summarize studies and investigations about advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) used for the treatment of petroleum wastewater, which mainly contained oil, organic matter and other compounds. The big difference was shown in the specification of wastewater among the...

Being used in large quantities for some decades, antibiotics have been of little notice since their existence in the environment. Present study aims at investigating the optimization of Ciprofloxacin removal (CIP) in Thermally Activated Persulfate (TAP)/Aeration systems by Central Composite Design...

Salinity is a key environmental factor for the successful application of anammox technology in wastewater treatment, because it impacts the activity and the community structure of anammox bacteria. In this study, the changes in activity and population shifts of an anammox system response to the...

The present study was aimed to evaluate the impact of leachate derived from uncontrolled municipal landfill on surrounding groundwater quality in Kolkata, India. Seasonal variation of twenty physico-chemical parameters in pre-monsoon (PRM) and post-monsoon (POM) season were analysed in forty...

This study was conducted to determine phytoextraction efficiency of Puccinellia distans (Jacq.) Parl. for Pb (450 mg kg-1 Pb(NO3)2) and the application of EDTA and DTPA (2.5DTPA, 5DTPA, 2.5EDTA, 5EDTA, 2.5EDTA+2.5DTPA, 2.5EDTA+5DTPA, 5EDTA+2.5DTPA, 5EDTA+5DTPA) on the Pb uptake and the potential for...
