In a typical wastewater treatment fl ow sheet used by several industrial units in Indi a. various stages of treatment include primary treatment. foll owed by secondary treatment . and tertiary treatment. The concentration of total dissolved solids increases during neutrali zation of the wastewater with acid/ alkali during primary treatment. which adversely affects the activity of microorgani sm...

Industrial and natural wastewater is one of the factors environmental pollution, in particular, its water basin. Among others, fuel oil pollutants are toxic substances that cause significant harm to all living things. It necessary create technologies using effective methods treatment solve such problems. possible properly select effectively use taking into account nature, condition concentratio...

The rapid growth of the economy in China has caused dramatic growth in the industrial and agricultural development in the Yellow River (YR) watershed. The hydrology of the YR has changed dramatically due to the climate changes and water management practices, which have resulted in a great variation in the fluxes of riverine nutrients carried by the YR. To study these changes dissolved nutrients...

Investigations were carried out on coal tailings by conventional cell and column flotation techniques. Tests were conducted to assess processing coal tailings of Alborz Markazi coal washing plant in Iran by column flotation. The effects of reagent type/dosage were investigated with conventional flotation and their results were used in the performance of column flotation. Also the effects of the...

Proper management of water is a challenge for every individual but especially for companies. Nowadays also legislation obliges companies to clean the wastewater before being discharged into municipal public sewer especially if they use some chemicals or oily elements in their production process. Construction of the wastewater cleaner depends directly on the way of pollution, the amount of conta...

This article reports findings on the use of nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) for secondary treatment of high-strength rendering facility wastewaters following an ultrafiltration step. These wastewaters present significant challenges to classical treatment technologies. Constant-pressure, direct-flow membrane filtration experiments were done to screen for flux and effluent water perm...

several laundry houses throughout tehran consume a large amount of water each day and discharge the resulting wastewater into septic tanks or municipal sewage system without any suitable pretreatment. this would result in severe contamination and other serious environmental issues. in the present study, performance of electrocoagulation/flotation process with aluminum and iron electrodes is com...
