An alternative resource for energy and water has become essential to ensure long-term sustainability. Industrial wastewater is one of the main environmental challenges which could affect one’s life, due its related pollution. Using solar distillation systems be key solution treating industrial wastewater. In this work, an experimental apparatus was fabricated tested according Al-Samawa city cli...

The petroleum industry is one of the most rapidly developing industries and projected to grow faster in coming years. recent environmental activities global requirements for cleaner methods are pushing refining use green techniques industrial wastewater treatment. Petroleum contains a broad diversity contaminants such as hydrocarbons, oil grease, phenol, ammonia, sulfides, other organic composi...

The corrosion rate of steel plate using single-factor, multifactor, and complex water systems was investigated via refinery wastewater effluents used as circulating cooling water. The results show that the primary corrosion factors of steel depend on the characteristics of the ions, the formation of the oxidized coating, the diffusion of dissolved oxygen, and other complex factors, although ion...

Two yeast strains are enriched and isolated from industrial refinery wastewater. These strains were observed for their ability to utilize several classes of petroleum hydrocarbons substrates, such as n-alkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons as a sole carbon source. Phylogenetic analysis based on the D1/D2 variable domain and the ITS-region sequences indicated that strains HC1 and HC4 were members of...

The profiles of major volatile organic compound (VOC) sources in petrochemical industry of the Yangtze river delta, China, were experimentally determined. Source samples were taken using summa canister near the petrochemical units. The concentrations of 72 VOC species were quantified using canister sampling and a gas chromatography–mass spectrometry system, and VOC source profiles were develope...
