Abstract Industrial effluents containing appreciable amounts of phenol and formalin may represent a problem when these effluents undergoing biological treatment. Experience in field of biological treatment for wastewater contains high concentrations of formalin showed high inhibition effect of formalin to biodegradation, specifically at higher concentrations more than 225 mg/L [3]. Also, as phe...

This case report describes a 9-year-old boy with severe tooth wear as a result of drinking a single glass of soft drink per day. This soft drink was consumed over a period of one to two hours, while he was gaming intensively on his computer. As a result, a deep bite, enamel cupping, sensitivity of primary teeth and loss of fillings occurred. Therefore, dentists should be aware that in patients ...

Background: Water resource management is a strategic issue in Qom city. Water scarcity is one of the most critical concerns of industrial estates. This study aimed to evaluate wastewater management in the Shokuhieh industrial park of Qom province in 2013. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study done by visiting the industrial units in person, completing questionnaires and analyzin...

UNLABELLED The Global School-based Student Health Survey (2005) indicated that in Lebanon, 33% of students in grades 7-9 drink carbonated soft drinks two or more times per day. Observational evidence suggests that students do not drink enough water. OBJECTIVE A pilot project called Jarrib Baleha ['try without it'] was implemented with 110 students in grades 3 and 4 in two schools in Lebanon t...

Methods for treating industrial wastewater containing heavy metals often involve technologies for reduction of toxicity in order to meet technology-based treatment standards. This article was focused on the recently developed and newly applicable various treatment processes for the removal of heavy metals from industrial wastewater. Physico-chemical removal processes such as; adsorption on new ...

Coking wastewater from the process of coking, coal gas purification and the coking products refine, whose ingredients are complicated and inconstant, is hard to meet the standard of reclaimed water used for industrial water by secondary treatment. In view of this situation, the advanced treatment technique of coking wastewater was desired. The innovatory flocculation treatment was used to regen...

the aim of this animal study was to evaluate the possible effects of carbonated soft drink consumption on the rate of orthodontic tooth movement in rats.thirty-six adult male sprague-dawley rats were randomly divided into two experimental groups and one control group. in the experimental groups (a&b;), the water in the dietary regimen was replaced with soft drinks (fanta® in group a and cola® i...

The world’s chemical industries face formidable environmental regulatory challenges in treating their wastewater effluents. The present work aims at highlighting the various industrial wastewater treatment technologies currently available including physico-chemical and biological processes as well as constructed wetland and conventional or advanced oxidation processes. Activated carbon prepared...
