in this present study the dissolved air flotation (daf) system was investigated for the treatment of kermanshah oil refinery wastewater. the effect of three parameters on flotation efficiency including of flow rate (outflow from the flotation tank), saturation pressure and coagulant dosage on chemical oxygen demand (cod) removal was examined experimentally. all the experiments were done under a...

Flotation wastes are becoming a valuable secondary raw material and source of many metals semimetals worldwide with the possibilities industrial recycling. The flotation tailings contain oxide sulfide minerals that have not been sufficiently stabilized form acidic mine waters, which in turn contaminate groundwater, rivers, reservoi6sediments. An effective way to recycle these is recover through...

Proper management of water is a challenge for every individual but especially for companies. Nowadays also legislation obliges companies to clean the wastewater before being discharged into municipal public sewer especially if they use some chemicals or oily elements in their production process. Construction of the wastewater cleaner depends directly on the way of pollution, the amount of conta...

The disposal of sulfide mine tailings in an environmentally sound, yet cost-effective, manner is an issue facing most metal mines. Subaqueous tailing disposal is considered an attractive option for disposal that limits oxygen (O2) availability within sulfide mine tailings and controlling sulfide oxidation and the resultant acid mine drainage (AMD). Assuming that O2 profiles represent steady-sta...

The effect of surfactants on the treatment of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) wastewater by electro-coagulation-flotation (ECF) process was studied. Two surfactants, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) were employed in this study to compare the effect of cationic (CTAB) and anodic (SDS) surfactants on ECF. The cationic surfactant can enhance the removal of ...

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 combina...

The aim of this project was to remove chloride ions from Eshidiya industrial waste water to be reused in the flotation cells. The industrial wastewater was treated by passing it through ion exchange column. During the experiments, two types of resins were used: anion resin and mixed resin (cation / anion).The selectivity coefficient and the separation factor were calculated in those experiments...

Biochemical processes by chemoautotrophs such as nitrifiers and sulfide and iron oxidizers are used extensively in wastewater treatment. The research described in this dissertation involved the study of two selected biological processes utilized in wastewater treatment mediated by chemoautotrophic bacteria: nitrification (biological removal of ammonia and nitrogen) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) re...
