In this article, we describe the selection of medium components like pH, temperature, carbon sources and nitrogen sources for the optimal production of extracellular peroxidase by Coprinus sp. (AKL 02) with a series of experiments which is important for growth and enzyme production. The high quality enzyme elicited by the fungus has greater potential for industrial application especially waste ...

The efficiency of treatment of synthetic and semi-synthetic waste oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions by vacuum evaporation is evaluated. A previous destabilisation/centrifugation stage increases the quality of the final aqueous effluent. However, proper selection of a coagulant salt or flocculant is required. A comparison of laboratory-scale evaporation results and those obtained in an industrial eva...

Bioremediation: ASM library http://www.microbelibrary.org/library/resources/ 2776-bioremediation-and-treatment-of-industrial-waste This site put up by the American Society for Microbiology provides a good summary of the principles and practices of bioremediation. Bioremediation: USGS http://water.usgs.gov/wid/html/bioremed.html This site is dated but it contains specific examples of sites treat...

In this study, to determine the biomass fraction to apply to the estimation of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the waste incineration sector, municipal solid waste, industrial waste, and sewage sludge incineration facilities were selected and analyzed, and the biomass fractions found in these facilities were compared. The biomass fractions of Municipal solid waste, industrial waste, and sew...

up flow anaerobic sludge blanket (uasb) treatment has proved its efficiency among other treatment methods especially for hardly degradable wastewaters such as industrial wastewaters and leachate. uasb is a widely used reactor with a resistance biomass. waste landfills' leachate is one of the most polluted wastewaters which cause great concerns due to landfill implementations for municipal ...

Thermoelectric technology, which possesses potential application in recycling industrial waste heat as energy, calls for novel high-performance materials. The systematic exploration of novel thermoelectric materials with excellent electronic transport properties is severely hindered by limited insight into the underlying bonding orbitals of atomic structures. Here we propose a simple yet succes...

Tannins extracted from lignocellulosic industrial wastes, eucalyptus bark and chestnut shell, under different conditions (type and concentration of alkaline chemicals in aqueous solution and temperature), were analysed in order to establish their properties for different potential applications including: their use as phenol substitutes in the formulation of adhesives for wood derivatives and as...
