Background: Mature landfill leachate is a complicated mixture which is resistant to biological treatment processes. The treatment of mature landfill leachate by struvite precipitation and Fenton oxidation was the main objective of the current research. Methods: Struvite with the phosphate/ammonia/magnesium molar ratio of 1/1/1.05 was considered during all experiments. Five initial pHs of 3, 4,...

the efficiency of oxidation processes, enzymatic treatment, and combined enzymatic/chemical sequences on color remediation of cmp pulp mill effluent was investigated. two kinds of fungal enzymes; laccase (ec: 1.10.3.2) from terametes versicolor and versatile peroxidase (ec: 1.11.1.7) from bjerkandera adusta were chosen and applied. also, the effect of external mediator on the enzyme based degra...

The application of the photo-Fenton process to the treatment of saline wastewater contaminated with hydrocarbons is investigated. Aqueous saline solutions containing raw gasoline were used as a model oil-field-produced water. The dependence on concentrations of the following reagents has been appropriately evaluated: hydrogen peroxide (100-200 mM), iron ions (0.5-1 mM), and sodium chloride (200...

This work evaluates the efficiency of different advanced oxidation processes (Fenton method, O3, H2O2 and O3/H2O2) for removing total COD (TCOD) and colour from biologically pre-treated swine manure. The Fenton process with a dosage of 100 mg L(-1) of Fe(2+) and 800 mg L(-1) of H2O2 resulted in about 78% TCOD and 96% colour reductions at an initial pH=3 after a reaction time of 30 min. Coagulat...

13 Alternative conditioning of aluminium-based drinking water treatment sludge 14 using Fenton reagent (Fe 2+ /H2O2) was examined in this study. Focuses were placed on 15 effectiveness and factors to affect such novel application of Fenton process. 16 Experiments have demonstrated that considerable improvement of alum sludge 17 dewaterability evaluated by capillary suction time (CST) can be obt...

This research investigated the efficiency of Advanced Oxidation Processes, Enzymatic treatment, and combined enzymatic/AOPs sequences on color remediation of CMP pulp and paper mills effluent. Regarding enzymatic treatment two kinds of fungal enzymes; Laccase (EC: 1.10.3.2) from Terametes Versicolor and Versatile Peroxidase (EC: 1.11.1.7) from Bjerkandera adusta were chosen and applied. Also, t...

Background & Aims of the Study: Phenolic compounds have been extensively used in industries for applications such as petrochemical, oil refineries, papers, plastics, steel, pharmaceuticals, textiles, coal conversion, and so on. Specified amounts of Phenolic compounds are lost in the process of their manufacturing and utilization and often cause environmental pollution problems....

Abstract In this study, the Fenton/adsorption of dye effluent containing Levafix blue has been carried out via a cost-efficient and eco-friendly heterogeneous Fenton solar-Fenton methods. Alum sludge, water treatment by-product were successfully collected calcined to 400 °C (AS400) tested for use as catalyst in process. X-ray diffraction, Scanned electron microscopy techniques applied investiga...

Background: Pharmaceuticals have arisen as emerging environmental pollutants due to their potential impact on humans, animals and microorganisms even at low concentrations. Conventional wastewater treatment plants are known to be ineffective for removal of many pharmaceuticals present in wastewater. Advanced oxidation processes are one of the most promising treatment technologies for degradatio...
