The treated and untreated effluent sample from Sir Shadi sugar mill Ltd. Shamli Distt Muzaffarnager of Western Utter Pradesh India during 2011-12 were collected and brought into laboratory for studying Physico-chemical parameters like Color, temperature, pH, DO, BOD, COD, TDS, TS, TSS, Chlorides, Sulphate and Oil & grease, heavy metals seed germination pattern of some important cereal crops. Un...

A combined treatment technique consisting of enzymatic hydrolysis, followed by aerobic biological oxidation was investigated for the treatment of alcohol distillery spent wash. The enzyme cellulase was used for the pretreatment step with an intention of transforming the complex and large pollutant molecules into simpler biologically assimilable smaller molecules. Batch experiments were performe...

Some physical, chemical and biological properties of raw water collected from Caroni River in Central Trinidad and raw wastewater from Angostura Distillery in North Trinidad were measured in the laboratory. In addition, the properties of the water effluent obtained by passing the raw Caroni River water through various sand-clay filter media that differed in the proportions of sand and clay by v...

in this paper, startup performance of upflow anaerobic hybrid reactor and upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors in anaerobic treatment of distillery spentwash has been studied under identical conditions of operation. various effluent characteristics like ph, electrical conductivity, chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand and total solids and other process parameters like biogas p...

The present investigation was aimed to study the distribution, enrichment and accumulation of heavy metals in soil and Vigna mungo (Black gram, var. Pant U-30) after irrigation with distillery wastewater. A field experiment was conducted in the experimental garden of Gurukula Kangri University, Haridwar during the year 2012 and 2013. Treatments of distillery wastewater viz. 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% a...

The aim of this work was to study the possible deactivation effects of biogas trace ammonia concentrations on methanation catalysts. It was found that small amounts of ammonia led to a slight decrease in the catalyst activity. A decrease in the catalyst deactivation by carbon formation was also observed, with ammonia absorbed on the active catalyst sites. This was via a suppression of the carbo...
