In this paper, a data-mining approach for modeling pumps in the wastewater preliminary treatment process is discussed. Datamining algorithms are utilized to develop pump performance models based on industrial data collected at a municipal wastewater processing plant. The performance of wastewater pumps is described by two parameters, pump energy consumption and water flow rate after the pumps. ...

Wastewaters from three different sources, private residence (domestic), medical clinic (institutional) and polymer industry (industrial) were characterised for their pollution potentials. The results of analysis show pH of 7.6, 6.5 and 6.3 for domestic, institutional and industrial wastewater, respectively. The DO, BOD and COD was found to be 4.01, 66 and 114 mg/l for the domestic wastewater, 3...

With the development of social economy, environmental protection projects have attracted wide attention from all walks life, especially in industrial development, which can pay to problems. Inorganic chemicals important value industry and be well used for scientific treatment wastewater. It mainly includes specific application inorganic printing dyeing wastewater, heavy metal papermaking fur, s...

Growth of the industrial sector, a result of population explosion has become the root cause of environmental deterioration and has raised the concerns for efficient wastewater management and reuse. Photoautotrophic cultivation of microorganisms is a boon and considered as a potential biological treatment for remediation of wastewater as it sequesters CO2 during growth. Photoautotrophs viz. cyan...

Exploiting microalgae as feedstock for biofuel production is a growing field of research and application, but there remain challenges related to industrial viability and economic sustainability. A solution to the water requirements of industrial-scale production is the use of wastewater as a growth medium. Considering the variable quality and contaminant loads of wastewater, algal feedstock wou...

Biochemical processes by chemoautotrophs such as nitrifiers and sulfide and iron oxidizers are used extensively in wastewater treatment. The research described in this dissertation involved the study of two selected biological processes utilized in wastewater treatment mediated by chemoautotrophic bacteria: nitrification (biological removal of ammonia and nitrogen) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) re...

The amount of wastewater depends on the technical level of process in each industry sector and will be gradually reduced with the improvement of industrial technologies. The increasing rates of industrial wastewater in developing countries are thought to be much higher than those in developed countries. This fact predicts that industrial wastewater pollution, as a mean environment pollution pro...
