The activated carbon produced from olive stones was chemically activated using sulfuric acid, (OS-S), and utilized as an adsorbent for the removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution in the concentration range 4-50 mg/L. Adsorption experiments were carried out in a batch process and various experimental parameters such as effect of contact time, initial chromium ion concentration, carbon dosage, an...

In the present study a mathematical model is developed in order to examine the effects of heat and mass transfers on removal efficiency of particulate matters in venturi type <span style="font-size: 10...

the color removal of three reactive dyes in an aquatic system without priortreatment was studied. selected commercial dyes were treated with nac102 anduv as oxidation agents. effects of nature of oxidant, temperature, ph ofsolutions, concentration of c107—, contact time of c102— and uv irradiation wereinvestigated. optimal c102— concentration for color removal in the absence of uvirradiation wa...

this study evaluates the effectiveness of adsorption process by granular activated carbon (gac) compared with a novel formulation of coagulation - flocculation process for dye removal from textile wastewater. in this regard, acidic, reactive, disperse and direct red dye are used to prepare the synthetic dye. dominant wave length for each dye is determined by spectrophotometeric method. using ga...

In 2005, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) National Menu of Best Management Practices (BMPs) listed compost filter socks (FS) as an approved BMP for controlling sediment in storm runoff on construction sites. The objectives of this study were to determine if FS with or without the addition of a flocculation agent to the FS system can significantly remove (i) suspended clay and si...

aims: textile industries are among the manufactures which produce the highly polluted waste water. the purpose of this research was to evaluate the effect of vermifiltration on cod and color removal from textile waste water. materials & methods: this experimental research was performed march to august 2014 in one of the textile factories of kashan region, iran. the glass cubic kits with- withou...

Moringa is a genus with many applications; some of these applications can be linked to their use in traditional medicine and as source nutrients, traditionally, species have been used for water purification. Many studies conducted assess the different One that extensively studied M. Oleifera because its wide geographical distribution. There are limited on peregrina due distribution, it native A...

The Cr(VI) removal capability of Acinetobacter junii VITSUKMW2 isolated from the Sukinda chromite mine site was evaluated and enhanced using statistical design techniques. The removal capacity was evaluated at different pH values (5-11) and temperatures (30-40 degrees C) and with various carbon and nitrogen sources. Plackett- Burman design was used to select the operational parameters for biore...

industrial effluents, especially the textile industry are discussed as one of the fundamental problems of the environment .dyes are materials with complex structures that enter into the wastewater from different stages of the textile industry. colors are often toxic, carcinogenic and mutagenic. this study investigated the absorption efficiency of reactive red 198 dye from aqueous solutions by p...
