Background & Aims of the Study: Pharmaceuticals are considered as an emerging environmental problem due to their continuous discharge and persistence to the aquatic ecosystem even at low concentrations. The purpose of this research was the investigation of advanced oxidation processes (Fenton and Fenton-like) efficiency for the removal of nonbeta lactam Antibiotics of azithromycin and clari...

Abstract Microalgae cultivation on wastewater offers the dual benefit of lowering costs for feedstock production with simultaneous remediation. This study utilized biochemical and quantitative label-free proteomic approaches to evaluate growth response diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum cultivated flushed dairy manure (DMW). Comparing several DMW dilutions (up 60% diluted in seawater) a synthetic...

In synthetic wastewater, growth and phosphorus absorption by two species of microalgae, Chlorella sorokiniana and Chlorella vulgaris, and in domestic wastewater by C. sorokiniana significantly enhanced after a starvation period of 3 days in saline solution, combined with co-immobilization with the microalgae growth-promoting bacterium (MGPB) Azospirillum brasilense Cd in alginate beads. Starv i...

The present study deals with the appropriateness of coagulation process using natural coagulant Moringa oleifera seed. Natural coagulants are useful for treatment wastewater because its sustainability, cost-effectiveness, non-toxicity and lesser quantity sludge formation. M. seed having a chemical composition polypeptides 6 amino acids like arginine acid, methionine glutamic phenylalanine, thre...

This work studied the influence of effluent recirculation upon the kinetics of anaerobic degradation of dairy wastewater in the feedless phase of intermittent upflow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB) reactors. Several laboratory-scale tests were performed with different organic loads in closed circuit UASB reactors inoculated with adapted flocculent sludge. The data obtained were used for determinati...
