with regard to environmental issues, proper operation of wastewater treatment plants is of particular importance that in the case of inappropriate utilization, they will cause serious problems. in order to achieve a better and efficient control over the operation of an industrial wastewater treatment plant (wwtp), powerful mathematical tool can be used that is based on recorded data from some b...

We investigated the conventional characterisation and biological treatability of wastewaters of the “Izmit Industrial and Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant”. Respirometric procedures were carried out for the experimental assessment of organic contents of wastewater. The mean value of total COD was 1201 mg·l-1 and varied within a wide range of 580 to 1822 mg·l-1 for the 14 different influents....

in this research performed during 1993-1994, the effluent of behran oil refmery, in south of tehran, which produces different types of industrial oil and greases, was studied and 3 methods of gravity separation, coagulation and flocculation and dissolved air flotation were investigated. in the first phase of the survey, the quality and quantity of the effluent were determined. this showed an av...

High rate anaerobic treatment for industrial wastewater was first applied on a commercial scale in the sugar industry in the mid 70's. Since that time the technology has developed into a standard method of wastewater treatment for a wide variety of industries. The technology is now functional in over 65 countries and a total of approximately 1,400 plants were build by the 16 leading vendors of ...

Anaerobic digestion provides an effective way of disposing of organic material in wastewater. The EUfunded TELEMAC project aims at improving the reliability and efficiency of monitoring and control of this type of wastewater treatment plant. One of its special features is the idea of a telecontrol centre which monitors multiple, geographically distributed plants remotely, acts as a centre of ex...

background: heavy metals have destructive and irreversible effects on the human, plants and animals. some industries in yazd enter industrial wastewater to municipal wastewater collection system. this can lead to high levels of heavy metals in wastewater and in turn in the wastewater treatment plant effluent.   methods: this study was carried out during four months from december 22, 2009 to may...
