Boron Removal from Synthetic Hydraulic Fracturing Wastewaters by Hybrid Nanofiltration/Complexation Process

by

Dr. Hasan Koseoglu et al. View all

Water and Wastewater Treatment

The primary purpose of this study is to investigate boron removal from synthetic hydraulic fracturing wastewater by membrane processes. The effects of pressure, pH, feed concentration, and polyol concentration on boron removal were determined using a cross-flow, flat-sheet membrane test unit. The...

EVALUATION OF THE PERFORMANCE OF PACKED BED COLUMN FOR HEAVY METAL ION REMOVAL USING RICE HUSK POWDER COATED WITH IRON OXIDE NANO-PARTICLES

by

Yogeshwaran V et al. View all

Water and Wastewater Treatment

The packed bed column study investigated the removal of toxic metal ions (Cr, Pb & Zn) using rice husk coated with iron oxide nanoparticles as an adsorbent material. The chemical fusion process prepared the nanomaterial adsorbent, and iron oxide capping provides stability to the prepared nano...

Adsorption of Dyes Using Natural Minerals: A Review

by

Asawer Mahdi Subhi et al. View all

Water and Wastewater Treatment

Adsorption is an effective and widely technique used for separation many pollutants from wastewater. Pollution of water with color material such as dyes is of environmental concern due to their toxicity and cause carcinogenic effects on human and aquatic life. These dyes are presented into the water...

Effect of UV irradiation on microbial structure, metabolic pathways and functional genes of nitrogen metabolism in highland wastewater

by

Zong Yong Chen et al. View all

Water and Wastewater Treatment

In this experiment, in the background of the plateau environment, the effects of ultraviolet irradiation on the microbial community structure, metabolic pathways and nitrogen metabolism function genes of sewage were studied at 0 (control group), 5, 10, 30, and 180 min. The results showed that the...
