The pulping process in Rakta mill is condu...

Background: Determination of water corrosion indexes is one of the affecting approaches on drinking water management. Corrosion can causes economical problems, reduce the useful life of water facilities, and health damages to consumers. The aim of this study was to survey of chemical quality and determination of the corrosion potential of the water distribution system in Bushehr city. Materials...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) constitute a novel class of nanomaterials with remarkable applications in diverse domains. However, the main intrincsic problem of CNTs is their insolubility or very poor solubility in most of the common solvents. The basic key question here is: are carbon nanotubes dissolved or dispersed in liquids, specifically in water? When analyzing the scientific research articles ...

Electrocoagulation is a method that can be used to remove pollutants and nutrients from liquid waste. This has been found for long time but exclusively recently developed wastewater treatment after lengthy process. colloidal materials, i.e., suspended solids, metals, other dissolved solids in wastewater. Several studies have shown electrocoagulation successfully operated various industrial wast...

Bangalore city hosts two Urban Wastewater Treatment Plants (UWTPs) towards the periphery of Vrishabhavathi valley, located in Nellakedaranahalli village of Nagasandra and Mailasandra Village, Karnataka, India. These plants are designed and constructed with an aim to manage wastewater so as to minimize and/or remove organic matter, solids, nutrients, disease-causing organisms and other pollutant...

The aim of this study was the increasing of leachate quality using integrated membrane bioreactor (MBR). The reactor was fed with treated leachate with overall 70-1360 mg/l chemical oxygen demand (COD). The analysis of COD, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), total suspended solids (TSS), and total dissolved solids (TDS) were performed in feed and filtrate, whenever the system reached steady stat...

'Solids formed from coprocessing of 10% coal/90% resid were characterized by solvent extraction, elemental analyses, C'3/C'z isotope ratio, ESR, and GPC techniques. adsorbed petroleum-derived material (oil, resin, asphaltene). The THF insolubles in the product contained high oxygen, low vanadium and a higher level of polyaromatic radicals than the soluble fraction, indicating that these insolub...
