Due to territorial condition and available land in Iran cities, Stabilization Ponds are one of the best choices for wastewater treatment. Studies whole the world indicates that treated water from a well design pond is more reliable than other systems. The other point for accepting this system is related to low cost of installation and operation. The present study is about  Khomein  city of stab...

The challenging problems faced by the tannery based countries are the safe disposal of the sludge generated by the effluent treatment plants. In this work, the disposal of the sludge at various generation points such as beam house (BHS) and after tertiary treatment process (TS) is studied. The FT-IR of the beam house sludge confirmed the presence of organic matter at 2880.31cm -1 and calcined p...

The present investigation was carried out during 2009-2010 to characterize and assess the treated paper mill effluent from The Tamilnadu Newsprint and Papers Limited (TNPL) for physico-chemical and biological properties. Treated paper mill effluent samples were collected from TNPL, Kagithapuram, Karur District of Tamil Nadu and were analyzed in the Department of Environmental Sciences, Tamil Na...

Pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) industries suffer inadequate effluent treatment due to the presence of recalcitrant substances, insufficient carbon source and nutrients. Biodegradation is the ability of microorganisms to metabolize pollutants in soil, sediment and water environment. There is great awareness in the positive impact that microorganisms play in protecting environm...

Wastewaters from three different sources, private residence (domestic), medical clinic (institutional) and polymer industry (industrial) were characterised for their pollution potentials. The results of analysis show pH of 7.6, 6.5 and 6.3 for domestic, institutional and industrial wastewater, respectively. The DO, BOD and COD was found to be 4.01, 66 and 114 mg/l for the domestic wastewater, 3...

Sanganur canal is the major open drainage system which has intricate linkage with storm water supply, domestic sewage and industrial effluent disposal. Water samples from various stations were collected and analysed for physicochemical parameters to assess the water quality of the Sanganur canal system. The study revealed that physicochemical parameters like pH, EC, TDS, DO, BOD, COD exceeded t...

Truckee Meadows Water Reclamation Facility TMWRF is a 150,000 m3/day 40 mgd tertiary wastewater treatment facility that serves the cities of Reno and Sparks, Nev. The effluent from TMWRF is discharged into the Truckee River which flows to Pyramid Lake—a very sensitive ecosystem and habitat for endangered species. Reverse osmosis RO and nanofiltration NF , in conjunction with ultrafiltration UF ...

in this paper, startup performance of upflow anaerobic hybrid reactor and upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors in anaerobic treatment of distillery spentwash has been studied under identical conditions of operation. various effluent characteristics like ph, electrical conductivity, chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand and total solids and other process parameters like biogas pr...
