The dairy industry has important to day-today in human life. Dairy industry involves processing of raw milk into products like milk, butter and cheese, etc., and generates 1 to 3 times the volume of milk produced. Knowledge on the physico-chemical characteristics of dairy wastewater is essential in the design, operation, collection and treatment as well as disposal facilities for the effective ...

Water is prime requirement for surviving of any living beings.  The existence of surface water and groundwater sources are used for domestic, agriculture and industrial purposes in all over the world. Fresh water from both the water sources is highly contaminated in recent years because of rapid population growth, modern agriculture and industrial growth. Among them, contamination of water sour...

The treatment of the yeast industry wastewater was investigated by nanofiltration (NF) membrane process on a pilot scale. Two wastewaters were used as feed: (i) dilute wastewater with COD 2000 mg/L and (ii) concentrate wastewater with COD 8000 mg/L. The permeate flux, COD retention, color and electrical conductivity (EC) removal were evaluated in relation to trans-membrane pressure and long-ter...

Wastewater derived from food production is highly variable, depending on the specific types of food processing operations (e.g., fruit, vegetable, oils, dairy, meat, and fish). Advances in membranes technology have showed many advantages for wastewater treatment of food industry. By implementing membranes, the separated substances and clean water are often recoverable in a chemically unchanged ...

This work aims to study the ability of using single and sequential electro-Fenton (EF) electrocoagulation (EC) processes in order treat tannery wastewater. The first method was run with an air diffusion cathode for H2O2 generation boron–doped diamond (BDD) as anode. second conducted mild steel electrodes. applied processes' performance monitored by removals chemical oxygen demand (COD) along to...
