Background: Considering the toxic effects of heavy metals and microbial pathogens in industrial wastewaters, it is necessary to treat metal and microbial contaminated wastewater prior to disposal in the environment. The purpose of this study is to assess the removal of heavy metals pollution and microbial contamination from a mixture of municipal and industrial wastewater using membrane biorea...

BACKGROUND This study investigated the interaction between heterotrophic bacteria and coliform, fecal coliforms, fecal streptococci bacteria in water supply networks. METHODS This study was conducted during 2013 on water supply distribution network in Aq Qala City, Golestan Province, Northern Iran and standard methods were applied for microbiological analysis. The surface method was applied t...

Four brands of membrane filters were examined for total and fecal coliform recovery performance by two experimental approaches. Using diluted EC broth cultures of water samples, Johns-Manville filters were superior to Sartorius filters for fecal coliform but equivalent for total coliform recovery. Using river water samples, Johns-Manville filters were superior to Sartorius filters for total col...

rivers can be contaminated with different pollutants such as trout farms. evaluation of the effect of trout farm on water quality is important to give new permission for trout farm construction. in current work, the effect of constructed trout farms near the deinachal river on some physicochemical properties namely chemical oxygen demand (cod), biological oxygen demand (bod5), dissolved oxygen ...

Beaches are the prime choice of amusement, hence determining its quality is significant to public health. The existing status water and sediment four beaches along north-west coast India evaluated at high low tide (for three weeks) during pre-monsoon season. Water samples were measured for hydrography, nutrients, Petroleum Hydrocarbons (PHc) Fecal Coliform (FC). Sediments analyzed heavy metals,...

The present study tries to investigate the effect of composting process on some properties and heavy metals status of two municipal sewage sludge (MSS) as affected by three different organic bulking agents (BAs) at three levels (10%, 25%, and 45% V/V). According to the results, the composting process could reduce the fecal coliform to class A, a reduction more obvious in treatments with BAs tha...
