the isolated fungi species of different kinds from chromium contaminated soil sites located in nagalkeni, chennai were used for reducing chromium(vi) in a tannery industry wastewater of nagalkeni, chennai.  the experiments were conducted to know biosorption potential of isolated fungi species for removing chromium(vi) in a tannery industry wastewater against the different ph, fungi biomass and ...

The impact of untreated and partially treated domestic wastewater on rivers and community water sources continues to raise health and safety concerns. The organisms of concern in domestic wastewater include enteric bacteria, viruses, and protozoan cysts. Table 1 summarizes the most common microorganisms found in domestic wastewater and the types of human diseases associated with them. Based on ...

In recent years, irrigating agricultural land with wastewater has become a major wastewater management practice. Irrigation has replaced much of the discharge to streams and conventional primary and secondary waste treatment for food processing wastewater (4, 11, 12, 13). Irrigating agricultural land for treatment and disposal of the food processing wastewater is a good practice if the wastewat...

This paper presents a case study on application of photosynthetic bacteria wastewater treatment system to recover organic carbon in wastewater in the form of photosynthetic bacterial cells. In noodle production process, the wastewater was mainly produced during rice soaking and rinsing processes containing starch as its main constituent. For carbon recovery purpose, wastewater was applied to la...

Introduction: The use of antiseptics and disinfectants in daily health protocols has a consequence of changing the quality of wastewater to be toxic to microbes. As a result, microbiological wastewater treatment has the potential to not be processed properly. To solve the problem of disinfectant-rich wastewater, a plant-based treatment method can be useful, the implementation of which is a land...

This paper presents results of investigations on physicochemical treatment of vegetable oil refinery wastewater (VORW), namely acid and technological wastewater. The study has shown that VORW has a varying high pollution load (organic matter, sulfates, phosphates and chlorides) and the removal of these pollutants from acid wastewater was more effective than that from technological wastewater; t...
