This paper took the objective of preparing high-performance, low-cost biological adsorbent for printing and dyeing wastewater, adsorption experiment dyestuff wastewater with high chromaticity biodegradability was studied. The Methylene Blue adsorbed by prepared Humulus Japonicus Leaves (HJ), effects time, pH, dosage adsorbent, initial concentration temperature on process were investigated, mech...

Nickel and cadmium usually enter the environment and water resources through wastewater, released by various industries, and may have adverse effects. The current study employs α–Fe2O3 nanoparticles of 20-40 nm in order to remove nickel and cadmium from the wastewater of Saba Battery Company. Also, it investigates the influence of effective parameters on adsorption process, including pH, contac...

To establish an efficient oxidation process for carbofuran degradation, the effects of some operating parameters such as dosages of H(2)O(2), Fe(2+) and initial carbofuran concentrations were observed during carbofuran degradation by the ultrasound process, Fenton process and a combined ultrasound/Fenton process. The degradation kinetics of carbofuran was also examined based on the experimental...

Kinetic study for different start up conditions of the anaerobic digestion of wastewater derived from the sago processing from tubers of tapioca (Mannihot utillisema) is discussed. The experiment is carried out with synthetic waste water using a tapered fluidized bed reactor. Mesoporous granulated activated carbon is used as a bacterial support. The kinetic model follows half order kinetics for...

Human norovirus (NoV) causes waterborne outbreaks worldwide suggesting their ability to persist and survive for extended periods in the environment. The objective of this study was to determine the persistence of the NoV GII genome in drinking water and wastewater at three different temperatures (3 °C, 21 °C, and 36 °C). The persistence of two NoV GII inoculums (extracted from stool) and an ind...

Tetracyclines (TCs) discharged from livestock wastewater have aroused public concerns due to their pharmacological threats to ecosystems and human health. As an important medium in the wastewater, suspended organic matters (SOMs) play vital roles in antibiotics transport and degradation. However, limited information has been reported in the relevant literature. This study investigated TCs sorpt...
