rivers can be contaminated with different pollutants such as trout farms. evaluation of the effect of trout farm on water quality is important to give new permission for trout farm construction. in current work, the effect of constructed trout farms near the deinachal river on some physicochemical properties namely chemical oxygen demand (cod), biological oxygen demand (bod5), dissolved oxygen ...

Treatment of oilfield produced water was investigated using an anaerobic process coupled with micro-electrolysis (ME), focusing on changes in chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biodegradability. Results showed that COD exhibited an abnormal change in the single anaerobic system in which it increased within the first 168 hr, but then decreased to 222 mg/L after 360 hr. The biological oxygen demand...

The performance of a novel industrial membrane bioreactor (MBR) comprising denitrification, nitrification and ultrafiltration for the secondary treatment of primary treated animal rendering wastewater has been compared with an experimental, low-cost and novel vertical-flow constructed treatment wetland planted with Typha latifolia L. The process wastewater followed pre-treatment by dissolved ai...

Thin-film composite nano-filtration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) membranes based NF followed by ROpilot plant at a feed pressure of 20 atm.and flow rate of 10 L/min. was used to remove colour, total dissolved solid (TDS) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) of distillery spent wash. NF was found to be effective for high rejection of TDS, colour and COD by 85%, 99% and 95%, respectively. Furthermor...

The global concern about alternative water reuse techniques are increasing continuously as heavy industries such as petrochemicals and agricultures grows bigger each year. Those organic pollutants present in wastewaters which are not treatable by conventional treatment methods, are considered to be treated by stronger and more modern techniques. The presence of these organic compounds in water ...

Treatment of waste water containing ethylene glycol (EG) by implementing a sequence of two Moving Bed Biofilm Reactors (MBBR) were studied. Reactors were operated at different hydraulic retention times (HRT) of 48, 24, 18, and10 hours while EG concentration was in the range of 10 mg/l to 1,150 mg/l. Throughout the experiments the ratio of EG Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) to total COD was changed...
