Nanostructured materials with desired wettability and optical property can play an important role in reducing the energy consumption of oily water treatment technologies. For effective oily water treatment, membrane materials with high strength, sunlight-sensitive anti-fouling, relative low fabrication cost, and controllable wettability are being explored. In the proposed oily water treatment a...

the present study investigated oil/water demulsification and treatment of oily wastewater originated from port waste reception facilities by electro coagulation using aluminum electrodes in a batch reactor. the efficiency of al electrodes in removing ss, cod, and oil & grease from wastewater with different current densities and operational times were investigated. the characteristics of th...

a modified model has been analytically developed to describe the induction time of an elliptic air bubble in contact with an elliptic hydrophobic oil droplet. the role of hydrophobicity was revealed in the slippage of liquid over the surfaces of bubble and droplet. in this condition, the analytical relationships for pressure distribution and consequently hydrodynamic resistance force through th...

In this study, the feasibility of Forward–Reverse osmosis processes was investigated for treating oily wastewater. The first stage applied forward process to recover pure water from Sodium chloride (NaCl) and magnesium (MgCl2) salts were used as draw solutions membrane that in (FO) cellulose triacetate (CTA) membrane. operating parameters studied were: solution concentrations (0.25 – 0.75 M), o...

During the last two decades, and particularly during the last few years, the environmental sector has shown a largely growing interest in the treatment of different types of water and wastewater by electrocoagulation (EC). The aim of this work was to review studies, conducted mainly during 2008-2011, on the wide and versatile range of feasible EC applications employed in the purification of dif...
