Common effluent treatment plant (CETP) is employed for treatment of tannery effluent. However, the performance of CETP for reducing the genotoxic substances from the raw effluent is not known. In this study, phytotoxic and genotoxic effects of tannery effluents were investigated in mung bean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek). For this purpose, untreated and treated tannery effluents were collected f...

The environmental issues associated with residual colour in textile efnuents have posed a major challenge to environmental scientists as well as the textile colouration processors. The requirements to remove colour from textile efnuent on si te prior to discharge to sewer have been progressively tightened due to increased public complaints about coloured watercourses. Dyes are highly dispersibl...

Rock filters are an established technology for polishing waste stabilization pond effluents. However, they rapidly become anoxic and consequently do not remove ammonium-nitrogen. Horizontal-flow aerated rock filters (HFARF), developed to permit nitrification and hence ammonium-N removal, were compared with a novel vertical-flow aerated rock filter (VFARF). There were no differences in the remov...

To determine if there is release of endothelial cells or plaque contents after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, effluent from atherosclerotic segments of the aorta and iliac arteries of rabbits were collected before and after angioplasty. No endothelial cells or cholesterol plates were identified in the preangioplasty effluents. Only a few single endothelial cells and cholesterol crystals...

The present research deals with the Risk assessment of groundwater quality. 79 samples were collected from domestic and agricultural usage open bore wells during January 2021(COVID-19 Pandemic Period). Groundwater tested to determine physicochemical parameters using standard testing procedure for preparation spatial distribution maps each parameter based on World Health Organization (WHO) stand...

Water resources are the greatest blessing that nature has bestowed upon mankind. This non-renewable resource is becoming scarcer day by day, and predictions say third world war for water could break out. So there a lot of scope conservation recycle wastewater. As per literature review an attempt can be made to divert wastewater into construction industry as mixing curing concrete. With this one...

micro flora of the effluents from a dairy factory in tehran(pegah dairy processing plant) were isolated and screened for their ability to reduce the organic matter content and cod of the effluents. 10 bacteria were selected due to  reduction in cod content from the 4th to 6th day of incubation at 30 °c and  ph =11. highest cod reduction were obtained by two isolates, bp3 and bp4, 70.7 % and 69....

The present study aimed to assess and compare the ability to remediate synthetic textile and industrial wastewaters by Fenton treatment, a biological system and sequential treatments using Aspergillus niger (A. niger). All studied treatments were found to be effective in decolorization of the effluents under study. Fenton treatment followed by A. niger showed excellent potential for the maximum...
