present study examines whether there is any beneficial effect of magnetized water application on seedling emergence of maize seeds. water from various sources like tap water, saline water (1,500 ppm), canal water, and sewerage water was treated magnetically by passing it through 235 mt magnetic fields at 3 lpm flow rate. seeds were soaked in water for 24 hours and planted in sand culture. numbe...

introduction: humic acid (ha) is one the original disinfection byproducts processors in water treatment. so, removing it is necessary before water chlorination. in the present study, photodegredation of humic acid in water using ag/zno nano particle under uvc irradiation in batch system was investigated. material and methods: photocatalytic study was carried out to evaluate the effect of uvc (1...

a biofilm sequencing batch reactor with a volume of 1.42 m3, nylon nets providing a 4,140 m2/m3 support area for biofilms and an automated operation with 8 hour cycles was studied. the duration of the experiment was 135 days. removal efficiencies e≥ 80% were obtained for carbonaceous matter, producing an effluent with 31±26.8 mg/l of filtered cod, 7±3.6 mg/l of bod5 and 12±3.2 mg/l of toc. the ...

djendjen river is one of the largest rivers in the region of jijel (algeria). human activities such as urban discharges, industrial, agricultural, and livestock have significant effects on the quality of water. the present study attempts to evaluate the quality of water along the banks of the djendjen river at different sampling sites, using physico-chemical and bacteriological methods. the col...

This paper presents an overview of different modelling and simulation (M & S) methods used in water treatment. Special emphasis is on pulp and paper industry. In chemical water treatment, M & S is successfully used in control design. Hybrid models based on a cascade approach are needed in biological wastewater treatment to cover different operating conditions. Uncertainty handling needs to be i...
