removal of ammonia from air, using three iranian natural zeolites

ammonia in air can be hazardous to human and animal life and should be removed from the environment. recently the removal of environmental pollutants such as ammonia by means of natural and modified zeolites has attracted a lot of attention and interests. in this study the capability of three iranian natural zeolites (clinoptilolite) in point of view of removal of ammonia from air was investiga...

The addition of a pH-sensitive gel improves microemulsion stability for the targeted removal of colonic ammonia

BACKGROUND We prepared an oral W/O microemulsion for the removal of colonic ammonia (ME-RCA). The effect of this microemulsion was influenced by the digestion process in the gastrointestinal tract. In this paper, we aim to show that stability was improved by using a microemulsion-based gel for the removal of colonic ammonia (MBG-RCA). METHODS MBG-RCA was prepared by adding sodium alginate to ...

Optimal conditions for the biological removal of ammonia from wastewater of a petrochemical plant using the response surface methodology

High concentrations of nitrogen compounds, such as ammonia observed in the petrochemical industry, are the major environmental pollutants. Therefore, effective and inexpensive methods are needed for its treatment. Biological treatment of various pollutants is a low cost and biocompatible replacement for current physico-chemical systems. The use of aquatic plants is an effective way to absorb th...

Archaea Improves Ammonia Removal

Ammonia removal is an important aspect of biological nutrient removal in wastewater treatment processes. However, due to process constraints, inhibiting compounds or more stringent discharge standards the ammonia removal rate can be insufficient. Subsequently, there is an increased need to optimize the functioning of existing treatment facilities. Addition of Archaea bio-systems to wastewater s...
