Thermal degradation of waste plastics in an inert atmosphere has been regarded as a productive method, because this process can convert waste plastics into hydrocarbons that can be used either as fuels or as a source of chemicals. In this work, waste high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic was chosen as the material for pyrolysis. A simple pyrolysis reactor system has been used to pyrolyse was...

This study was undertaken to evaluate a novel aerobic wastewater treatment model for the remediation of refinery effluents and to assess the removal efficiency of Bulkholderia cepacia strain AJI and Corynebacterium kutscheri strain AJ2 to clean oil waste from petrochemical company. Wastewater quality parameters including pH, BOD5, COD, TDS, OIL & GREASE, PHENOL concentration, TPH and THC were m...

conclusions the results of this study show that it is possible to remove nitrate, and its intermediates from waste water. regarding the desirability of the process, the field scale study is proposed. results the results showed that by applying electric current of 0.14 a for 120 minutes, the nitrate content would reduce down to 97%. the obtained r2 for the nitrate removal model was higher than 0...

Oily skin (seborrhea) is a common cosmetic problem that occurs when oversized sebaceous glands produce excessive amounts of sebum giving the appearance shiny and greasy skin. at same time malnourished because wash out protective hydrating factors, such as natural moisturizing factor, therefore dual treatment necessary, which consists meticulous cleaning profound nourishment Skin microcirculatio...

background sewage sludge (biosolids) is a byproduct of wastewater treatment that accumulates in large quantities. effective stabilization and disinfection of sewage sludge prior to land application are necessary to not only protect human health, but also to induce the public its benefits and safety. currently, many wastewater treatment plants in iran dispose great amounts of untreated sewage sl...

This contribution reviews the possibility of using the by-products from biodiesel production as substrates for anaerobic digestion and production of biogas. The process of biodiesel production is predominantly carried out by catalyzed transesterification. Besides desired methylesters, this reaction provides also few other products, including crude glycerol, oil-pressed cakes, and washing water....

aims: regarding water as the main source of brio, not only its quantity and being availability is vital, but also its quality must be considered. this study was done in order to determine the correlation between physicochemical bod5 and microbiological parameters (fc and tc) in the kashan university of medical sciences wastewater effluent of activated sludge system.  materials & methods: this d...

Electroplating waste water is considered to be harmful to health of animals. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that electroplating waste water would suppress immune functions in Kunming mice. Twenty-six mice were randomly divided into the control group (n = 13) and the experimental group (n = 13), in which the latter drank electroplating waste water. We found that body mass and mos...
