Carwash wastewater (CWW) contains grease, oil, hydrocarbon residues, heavy metals, and surfactants, posing severe impacts to the environment human health. Accordingly, various physical, chemical, biological processes for CWW treatment have been demonstrated in recent research. In this study, a bibliometric approach was performed comprehensively illustrate progress, current direction, future per...

conclusions the results of this study show that it is possible to remove nitrate, and its intermediates from waste water. regarding the desirability of the process, the field scale study is proposed. results the results showed that by applying electric current of 0.14 a for 120 minutes, the nitrate content would reduce down to 97%. the obtained r2 for the nitrate removal model was higher than 0...

background sewage sludge (biosolids) is a byproduct of wastewater treatment that accumulates in large quantities. effective stabilization and disinfection of sewage sludge prior to land application are necessary to not only protect human health, but also to induce the public its benefits and safety. currently, many wastewater treatment plants in iran dispose great amounts of untreated sewage sl...

aims: regarding water as the main source of brio, not only its quantity and being availability is vital, but also its quality must be considered. this study was done in order to determine the correlation between physicochemical bod5 and microbiological parameters (fc and tc) in the kashan university of medical sciences wastewater effluent of activated sludge system.  materials & methods: this d...

Electroplating waste water is considered to be harmful to health of animals. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that electroplating waste water would suppress immune functions in Kunming mice. Twenty-six mice were randomly divided into the control group (n = 13) and the experimental group (n = 13), in which the latter drank electroplating waste water. We found that body mass and mos...

abstract in order to investigate the removal of copper, nickel, zinc and chromium from industrial waste water by a sand–soil–organic matter filter column, this experiment was conducted at a completely randomized design with sixteen treatments and four replications. p.v.c tubes (columns) with 66.5 cm height and 10 cm diameter were chosen and filled from down to top by coarse gravel (15 cm), sand...

aims: chromium is one of the most important metallic pollutants in plating industry wastewater. this toxic metal is a serious threat to human health and to the environment due to its cumulative effects and non-degradability. this research intended to study the effects of ph, contact time, and voltage on the degree of chromium removal from wastewater of plating industry by using the electrocoagu...

conclusions based on nitrification and denitrification data, the best condition for nitrifying/ denitrifying performance was obtained by modified-ifas. hence, the modification can be used to obtain the best activities of microbial and nitrogen removal improvement. results employing the bet, surface area (sa), total pore volume (vp), and average size of the nanostructure were 0.4026 m2/g, 3.8089...

Emami Paper Mill Ltd. at Balgopalpur industrial area produces a huge amount of fly ash and waste water to the environment. The application of disposed fly ash and waste water in crop cultivation may reduce the problem to some extent. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of direct land application of fly ash on plant growth and production of rice (Oriza sativa). In the fly ash exp...

The waste water showed high values of total solid (TS), hardness and chloride with slightly alkaline pH along with high concentrations of Cr (2.03 mg l(-1)), Ni (1.59 mg l(-1)) and Zn (0.46 mg l(-1)). The concentration of Cu (0.21 mg l(-1)) and Zn in industrial waste water was low than Ni and Cr. The diluted (25 and 50%), undiluted (100%) waste water was used to irrigate the lettuce plants grow...
