This study aimed to investigate the efficiency of the enhanced coagulation (EC) process for the simultaneous removal of turbidity and humic substances (HS) from raw water from the Sanandaj Water Treatment Plant (SWTP). This study was conducted on a laboratory scale using a jar test device and ferric chloride (FeCL3) as the coagulant. Accordingly, the effects of pH and coagulant dosag...

so far, different methods have been applied to clean up soils contaminated with oil. bioremediation is one of the clean up technologies which uses microorganisms or microbial processes to degrade oil contaminations in soils. this study evaluates the applicability of cow manure as bioremediation alternative for soils spiked with petroleum hydrocarbons. target contaminant of this research was die...

background: the effective size of the end grain of horizontal roughing filters (hrfs) is larger than 2 mm. this study aimed to examine the efficiency of hrfs in removing nitrate, phosphate, and chemical oxygen demand (cod) from effluent of a wastewater stabilization pond. methods: this experimental study was conducted in 2013. the pilot project was transferred to the karaj wastewater treatment ...

the sequencing batch reactors were developed to treat the actual wastewater from ethyleneglycol/ethylene oxide producing industry. four identical reactors with total and effective liquid volumes of 9and 7 l were operated respectively in parallel. laboratory experiments were conducted with different organicloadings of 500, 1000, 1500 and 3000 g-cod/m3.day and the performance of the reactors was ...

background & aims of the study: toluene-2, 4-diamine (tda) is a famous carcinogenic aromatic amine that is mostly employed as an intermediate in the production of dyes and toluene diisocyanate. in this study, degradation and mineralization of tda were investigated by uv/h2o2 process. materials & methods: this study is an experimental investigation on a laboratory scale. the study performed on s...
