this study aims to inspect the performance of the wastewater treatment system of the pars oil refinery. quantity and quality of wastewater are determined through samplings and measurements. the performance of system is evaluated considering total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, phosphate, chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand, ammonia nitrogen, furfural, oil and ph. for pr...

The objectives of this work were to develop a means of sampling atmospheric dusts on the premises of an oil refinery for electron microscopic study to carry out preliminary morphological analyses and to compare these dusts with those collected at sites beyond the refinery limits. Carbon and collodion membranes were used as a support for collection of dust particles straight on transmission elec...

this study investigated the occurrence and removal of 12 antibiotics (ciprofloxacin, enrofloxacin, levofloxacin, norfloxacin, nalidixic acid, azithromycin, clarithromycin, roxithromycin, lincomycin, novobiocin, sulfamethoxazole, trimethoprim) at four sewage treatment plants (stps): two stps in kyoto, japan and two stps in beijing, china. the stps differed in design and operation conditions, uti...

results the results showed that the fog amount in input raw sewage in the mwwtp from june 2011 to september 2011 was around 25.5 mg/l and the amount in treated wastewater was about 8.1 mg/l. the fog removal efficiency in this refinery was about 70% and met the environmental standards for the discharge (less than 10 mg/l) (p < 0.05). conclusions the effluent can be discharged to surface waters o...

In Nigeria, like other developing countries, industries discharge their wastewater without effective treatment due to the high cost of existing treatment technologies. Wastewater containing petroleum hydrocarbon is highly toxic and pose a great danger to the nearby communities. Therefore, there is a need for a more robust and cost effective treatment technology. In this research, a study was ca...

Primary Effluent Treatment-Secondary Treatment (PET-SET) is refinery waste-water. PET-SET waste contains hazardous substances, namely Fe, Mn and Zn metal ions. The novelty of this research that it looks at the CaO adsorbent to reduce content Mn, from Waste-water. This research’s aimed using adsorbent. was prepared golden snail shell by previous researchers. Concentration before treatment were 8...

nowadays, with the industry development, a lot of waste is produced damaging the environment. among wastewater treatment methods, anaerobic techniques have been highly regarded due to numerous advantages. in anaerobic systems, upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (uasb) reactor has many features. in this study using computational fluid dynamics techniques, three-phase reactor hydrodynamics in two an...
