In the present study the aim of investigation is physical and chemical parameters of ground water and soil. By selected Physical and chemical parameters it is found that (1).Biological oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) are directly proportional to each other where dissolved oxygen (DO) is indirectly proportional to BOD and COD. (2). Total dissolved solids, alkalinity and hard...

Congo red, which has a complex molecular structure with various diazo aromatic groups, is widely used in textile industry as an anionic dye. The purpose of this study was to investigate the degradation of Congo red in laboratory solution which had the chemical properties of the rinse waters of textile manufacturing dye-houses and the samples with Congo red alone wastewater by ozonation and to o...

background: the production of waste pollutants has become a major problem for many food and oil industries. however, oil wastes can provide alternative substrates for industry, which could help to solve environmental pollution problems. furthermore, oil wastes can be used as substrates to produce unsaturated fatty acids, which are important for health.objectives: the production of fatty acids i...

background: wastewater produced by a dairy in sanandaj is a major source of environmental pollution threatening the city. the dairy uses activated sludge treatment to remove organic pollution from the wastewater. the present study evaluated the performance of this process and its compliance with national requirements for chemical oxygen demand (cod), biochemical oxygen demand (bod), and total s...

human activities in the fields of agriculture, municipal and industry introduce significant amounts of nutrients and organic materials into the rivers and streams resulting in their contamination. computer models such as qual2kw are used extensively for water quality management of rivers and streams. the qual2kw model is a one dimensional, non-uniform, steady water quality model, which has been...

River Hindon is an important river catering the demand of highly populated rural and industrial cluster of western Uttar Pradesh, India. Water quality of river Hindon is deteriorating at an alarming rate due to various industrial, municipal and agricultural activities. The present study aimed at identifying the pollution sources and quantifying the degree to which these sources are responsible ...

Most often, our waterways are being polluted by municipal, agricultural and industrial wastes. When this happens, much of the available dissolved oxygen is consumed by aerobic bacteria in decomposing the waste, thereby robbing other aquatic organisms of the oxygen they need to live. In this paper, we consider the solution of the optimal control problem for the modified Dissolve Oxygen(DO)/ Biol...

The physicochemical characterization of the textile industry effluent collected from Oswal Textile Industries, Ludhiana (Punjab.) India has been carried out and the results showed that the temperature (40°C), pH (8.00), Biological Oxygen Demand (260 mgl –1 ), Chemical Oxygen Demand (790 mgl –1 ), Total Suspended Solids (2000 mgl –1 ), Total Dissolved Solids (7000 mgl –1 and colour over the pres...

The Environment Agency is required to monitor the diversion of biodegradable municipal waste (BMW) from landfill. Reliable methods are needed to measure the biodegradability of municipal waste, both as mixed municipal waste and as individually separated fractions. An evaluation of several methods was carried out using a variety of organic materials typically found in municipal solid waste. The ...
