Background: In this study, ferrate (VI) and ultraviolet (UV) radiation were employed to remove hydrogen sulfide from municipal wastewater resulting in a reduction in chemical oxygen demand (COD). Although ferrate (VI) and UV have been used individually for the removal of a few pollutants from urban and industrial wastewater, there exists no study to investigate the effectiveness of si...

odor emission is a common environmental problem in septic tank. the feasibility of using trickling filter to eliminate the malodorous gases from the septic tank was studied. a trickling filter is set up at the outlet of the waste gases of the septic tank, which was attached to the university's cafeteria. in this investigation, the trickling filter system was used, measuring the hydrogen sulfide...

background; the aim of this study is to compare uv, ferrate (vi) and uv/ferrate (vi) methods for removal of hydrogen sulfide and chemical oxygen demand (cod) from municipal wastewater under a continuous condition. methods; the experiment was divided into three parts: 1) pollutants removal by using ferrate (vi) alone; 2) pollutants removal using uv alone; 3) pollutants removal using a combinatio...

Heavy metals are the cause of major abiotic stresses in plants and a principal contributor to environmental pollution in recent decades. This study investigated the effects of exogenous hydrogen sulfide on the ascorbate-glutathione cycle in the leaves of coriander seedlings under copper stress. Results showed that copper stress not only reduced APX and GR activities but also decreased leaf AsA,...

Microbial mats containing the filamentous anoxygenic photosynthetic bacterium Chloroflexus aggregans develop at Nakabusa hot spring in Japan. Under anaerobic conditions in these mats, interspecies interaction between sulfate-reducing bacteria as sulfide producers and C. aggregans as a sulfide consumer has been proposed to constitute a sulfur cycle; however, the electron donor utilized for micro...
