Environmental pollution in India has increased from uncontrolled emission of chemical pollutants from the Industries, automobiles and non-point sources where modern agricultural practices are used. These chemicals have contaminated the air, water, soil and their residues have been detected in drinking water, food and consumer products. Some of these are very persistent in the environment and ha...

Purpose – This paper has been produced to enumerate and discuss threats which are caused by industry and may affect health in the province of Kocaeli. Design/methodology/approach – Industries in the province, depending on their function, were grouped into sectors. Air, water and solid waste pollutants produced by each sector were assessed for each region of the province. Findings – Of the 7,400...

A nodally exact scheme is derived for a model equation in 1D involving zeroth and second order terms. The method is derived using residual-free bubbles in conjunction with the Galerkin approximation. It is shown that this approach leads to the mass lumping scheme for su ciently small mesh sizes. 1. The residual-free bubbles approach. The usage of the Galerkin method enriched with bubble functio...

In the 21st Century, Majority of water pollution is caused due to incorrect discharge of waste products into the water bodies. These pollutants can be categorized as dyes, textiles, pesticides and hydrocarbons. This review paper deals with a comprehensive analysis of various methods for degradation of these pollutants in water. Due to the efficient mineralization of organic compounds; advanced ...

Over the years, with the active spread and development of the industries, Heavy Metal, which are either used, or produced as byproducts by numerous manufacturing, industrial, refining and mining processes have become ubiquitous, persistent environmental pollutants. India too not exempted from such devasting environmental degradation caused by these pollutants. This study develops a method to ac...

background: application of potassium ferrate is a chemical oxidation approach used for water and wastewater treatment. the aim of this study is to apply central composite design (ccd) and response surface methodology (rsm) to optimize potassium ferrate consumption in the treatment of wastewater from carpet industries. methods: samples in this experimental study were collected from wastewater, o...

This study uses a vector autoregression (VAR) model to analyze changes in pollutants among different mining industries and related policy in China from 2001 to 2014. The results show that: (1) because the pertinence of standards for mining waste water and waste gas emissions are not strong and because the maximum permissible discharge pollutant concentrations in these standards are too high, am...

background cadmium is a toxic metal that occurs naturally in the environment and is considered as a pollutant emanating from industrial and agricultural sources. biosorption is a very simple and cheap technique for removal of metal pollutants from aqueous samples. objectives in this study, removal of cadmium from aqueous solutions using c. colocynthis fruit powder was studied. materials and met...
