groundwater is the most widely distributed resource of the earth and groundwater quality evolves rapidly as it passes through the subsurface pathways within the unsaturated zone. increasing urbanization and anthropogenic activities have added to the problem of deficient amount of good quality groundwater. the study area is an industrial hub for textile sector. textile production, particularly d...

Abstract—A number of toxic chlorophenolic compounds are formed during pulp bleaching. The nature and concentration of these chlorophenolic compounds largely depends upon the amount and nature of bleaching chemicals used. These compounds are highly recalcitrant and difficult to remove but are partially removed by the biochemical treatment processes adopted by the paper industry. Identification a...

Textile waste, from both consumption and production, has dramatically increased due to a lack of diversification in its use. Increasing the number textile alternatives can help solve these problems. Producing green composite product is an interesting alternative method. The objectives this work were study preparation characterization composites created PLA cotton fabric waste (CFW) consider eff...

Pathogenic bacteria are one of the main reasons for worldwide water-borne disease causing a big threat to public health, hence there is an urgent need to develop cost-effective water treatment technologies. Nano-materials in point-of-use systems have recently attracted considerable research and commercial interests as they can overcome the drawbacks of traditional water treatment techniques. We...

The cyclodextrin capacity to form inclusion complexes is known for a long time, this property being used in textile industry to obtain products with applications in increasing wear comfort and realization of medical textiles. Yet, there is always the possibility to find new applications of these complexes, either by their permanent fixation on textiles, or by making them environmentally friendl...

London has traditionally exported most of its waste to former mineral workings in surrounding counties for landfill. Many of these sites are being filled and opportunities for new sites are limited. Virtually all waste reprocessing and recycling facilities, with the exception of textile sorting and some facilities for glass and organic waste composting, are outside London. The Mayor of London’s...

conclusions the results of this study show that it is possible to remove nitrate, and its intermediates from waste water. regarding the desirability of the process, the field scale study is proposed. results the results showed that by applying electric current of 0.14 a for 120 minutes, the nitrate content would reduce down to 97%. the obtained r2 for the nitrate removal model was higher than 0...

background sewage sludge (biosolids) is a byproduct of wastewater treatment that accumulates in large quantities. effective stabilization and disinfection of sewage sludge prior to land application are necessary to not only protect human health, but also to induce the public its benefits and safety. currently, many wastewater treatment plants in iran dispose great amounts of untreated sewage sl...
