This comprehensive work explores the research performed inoptimization of the collection bin and in recycle bin location-allocation issues in solidwaste management. Although the collection phase of solid waste management accountsfor a significant proportion of the municipal budget, it has attracted only limitedattention of the researchers. Optimization of the collection bin and recycle bin loca...

C. 2. c. EFFLUENT VERSUS ABSORPTION AREA WATER QUALITY DURING THE RESEARCH STUDY Hydrogen ion concentrations (pH), EC values, and chloride ion concentrations remained consistent between effluent and subsystems samples each year. Effluent nitrate-N concentrations were lower and ammonium-N concentrations higher than those concentrations found within either subsystem in the absorption area. This w...

Worldwide, wild fish living in rivers receiving municipal and industrial discharges may experience endocrine disruption as a result of exposure to anthropogenic pollutants. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the hormonal status of wild fish in a U.S. river receiving unbleached kraft and recycled pulp mill effluent (Pearl River at Bogalusa, LA). We evaluated two alternative hypotheses: th...

Commercial nuclear power plants release gaseous and liquid radiological effluents into the environment as a byproduct of electrical generation. These releases are monitored by federal agencies to ensure compliance of regulatory limits. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) offer guidance and make recommendations for domestic power plants eff...

The use of effluent bioassays in various international jurisdictions is reviewed, resulting in an analysis of themes and trends in: regulatory use, different uses of bioassays in meeting protection goals, different types of bioassays, bioassay test variability, statistical design, use of effluent bioassays to predict receiving environment effects, and uptake of effluent bioassay testing by deve...

The effect of indigo dye effluent on the freshwater microalga Scenedesmus quadricauda ABU12 was investigated under controlled laboratory conditions. The microalga was exposed to different concentrations of the effluent obtained by diluting the dye effluent from 100 to 175 times in bold basal medium (BBM). The growth rate of the microalga decreased as indigo dye effluent concentration increased ...

The present investigation was carried out during 2009-2010 to characterize and assess the treated paper mill effluent from The Tamilnadu Newsprint and Papers Limited (TNPL) for physico-chemical and biological properties. Treated paper mill effluent samples were collected from TNPL, Kagithapuram, Karur District of Tamil Nadu and were analyzed in the Department of Environmental Sciences, Tamil Na...

Using the price for recycling used home appliances as a variable in the decision-making process, this paper studies the pricing decision-making process of the home appliances enterprises when a wholesale and retail price for the green home appliances have already been determined by other methods. In consideration of the influences of the effective recycle behavior of the used home appliances to...

In this paper, a comparative study of the treatment of raw and biotreated (upflow anaerobic sludge blanket, UASB) textile dye bath effluent using advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) is presented. The AOPs applied on raw and biotreated textile dye bath effluent, after characterization in terms of COD, colour, BOD and pH, were ozone, UV, UV/H2O2 and photo-Fenton. The decolorization of raw dye bat...

The presence of viruses in treated and untreated sewage water is a serious issue the agricultural sector as it highly dependent on recycled for irrigation purposes due to shortage fresh resources In this study wastewater has been reviewed evaluate health threats people It cited that such Rotavirus, Norwalk virus, adenovirus, Hepatitis A are common mediators diseases human beings Including respi...
