In this paper, physicochemical characterization and analysis of total metal concentration of greases and wastewater samples from two wastewater treatment plants in the North of Morocco, Tangier and Tetouan, were carried out. The samples were taken in the winter period of the year 2011-2012. For two case studies of wastewater treatment plants in Tangier and Tetouan (WWTPTG and WWTP-TT), waste so...

the efficiency of existing municipal wastewater treatment plants has been affected by the increase of incoming organic load caused by the expansions in developing countries. in the present investigation, the effect of chemically enhanced primary treatment (cept) process was studied on the enhancement efficiency of a municipal wastewater treatment plant in tehran, iran. jar test results showed a...

Abstract. A pilot plant for treating 1,000m of textile dyeing wastewater per day with electron beam has constructed and operated continuously in Daegu, Korea since 1998. This plant is combined with biological treatment system and it shows the reduction of chemical reagent consumption, and also the reduction in retention time with the increase in removal efficiencies of CODCr and BOD5 up to 30~4...

background wastewaters with high salt content disturb the metabolic function of microorganisms causing plasmolysis or activity loss in microorganisms, so the efficiency of biological treatment of saline wastewater by conventional microorganisms will decrease. objectives this study aimed to find the outbreak of disorder in the biological wastewater treatment process and how much salt leads to lo...

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) have been used to produce electricity from different compounds, including acetate, lactate, and glucose. We demonstrate here that it is also possible to produce electricity in a MFC from domestic wastewater, while atthe same time accomplishing biological wastewater treatment (removal of chemical oxygen demand; COD). Tests were conducted using a single chamber microbi...

In recent years, irrigating agricultural land with wastewater has become a major wastewater management practice. Irrigation has replaced much of the discharge to streams and conventional primary and secondary waste treatment for food processing wastewater (4, 11, 12, 13). Irrigating agricultural land for treatment and disposal of the food processing wastewater is a good practice if the wastewat...

The wastewater from petroleum industries contains high organic matter content, oil and grease, dissolved solids and turbidity. The petroleum wastewater normally treated in a plant comprising of primary, secondary and tertiary treatments. The high organic loading needs to be treated in biological treatment step. Biological treatment can be suspended growth or attached growth type. Activated slud...

In the work issues related to modeling of the biological-chemical wastewater treatment plant are presented. A commonly-used control strategy including model predictive control of the wastewater treatment plant are presented. Then a model of biological and chemical transformations AMS1 is described and its limitations are pointed out. Then the feed-forward neural networks are introduced. The per...
