the aim of this work was to optimize the coagulation-flocculation (cf) process applied tomunicipal wastewaters (ww). optimization of cf was performed to minimize chemical oxygen demand(cod), turbidity, sludge produced, and some metals in sludge. a box-behnken design was used to evaluate the effects and interactions of three factors such as type of biopolymer (guar, mesquite seed gum and opuntia...

Ozone pre-oxidation can effectively degrade MC-LR, 2mg / L ozone for MC-LR removal efficiency of 65.28%. 2mg / L ozone for MC-LR removal efficiency reach to 65.28%. Ozone also has a better removal effect for turbidity and UV254 , 4mg / L ozone for UV254 and turbidity removal efficiency are 50% and 59.38%. But ozone removal efficiency of TOC and CODMn was poor, 3mg / L ozone for TOC and CODMn re...

Schmutzdecke, the biofilm formed on top of sand bed in household slow filters (HSSF) is a key factor for filters’ high efficiency removing particles and microorganisms from water. This paper aims to investigate extracellular polymeric substances composition (carbohydrates proteins), biomass, dissolved oxygen, microbial community two types HSSFs identify correlation between them their efficiency...

The performance of extracted coagulant from the sugarcane bagasse was tested using synthetic wastewater for turbidity removal. Sugarcane selected because it is available in abundance as a waste. This study carried out to analyze effect extraction process optimizing active agent natural optimum Bagasse characterized terms physical, chemical and morphological properties. results showed has very h...

background: application of potassium ferrate is a chemical oxidation approach used for water and wastewater treatment. the aim of this study is to apply central composite design (ccd) and response surface methodology (rsm) to optimize potassium ferrate consumption in the treatment of wastewater from carpet industries. methods: samples in this experimental study were collected from wastewater, o...

The term 'membrane bioreactor' expresses a combination of activated sludge and membrane separation processes. The need to processes like sedimentation and disinfection used in common methods is eliminated through MBR systems in a way that membranes are placed into or out of an aeration tank and the vacuumed wastewater created by the suction pump is pulled up from inside the membranes and leaves...

Raw surface and ground waters used for drinking purposes can vary markedly in their chemical and biological composition. Inorganic content (such as salt, bicarbonate, clay and metal ions), organic content (natural organic matter and anthropogenic compounds, including pollutants) and micro-organisms present in raw water are key drivers for treatment processes that provide for safe and aesthetica...
