degradation of o,o-dimethyl -o-4-nitrophenylphosphorothioate (methylparathion) by ozonation in aqueous solution was studied in a batch reactor under constant ozone dosage and variable ph conditions. the effectiveness of the process was estimated based on the degree of cod (chemical oxygen demand) reduction and conversion of methylparathion. it was observed that ozonation is more effective at al...

The “gas–liquid two-phases mixed flow” mechanism that fine bubble generation uses rapidly swirling water, which shear gas and making small bubbles in water. Based on this mechanism, sending liquid such as oil into the water instead of it able to be emulsified. At present, evaluation methods for emulsions are using particle size distribution dispersion stability. However, emulsion with bad separ...

rivers can be contaminated with different pollutants such as trout farms. evaluation of the effect of trout farm on water quality is important to give new permission for trout farm construction. in current work, the effect of constructed trout farms near the deinachal river on some physicochemical properties namely chemical oxygen demand (cod), biological oxygen demand (bod5), dissolved oxygen ...

Palm oil industries have been contributing significantly towards the country’s economy and increase standard of living among Malaysians. However, it has also been identified as the major contributor for discharging the largest pollution load throughout the country. Owing to high biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD), the palm oil mill effluent (POME) cannot be dischar...

Lagoons have been traditionally used in India for decentralized treatment of domestic sewage. These are cost effective as they depend mainly on natural processes without any external energy inputs. This study focuses on the treatment efficiency of algae-based sewage treatment plant (STP) of 67.65 million liters per day (MLD) capacity considering the characteristics of domestic wastewater (sewag...

The development of a real-time monitoring tool for the estimation of water quality is essential for efficient management of river pollution in urban areas. The Gap River in Korea is a typical urban river, which is affected by the effluent of a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) and various anthropogenic activities. In this study, fluorescence excitation-emission matrices (EEM) with parallel fact...

An increase in the chemical oxygen demand (COD) has been noticed in most Korean reservoirs. Therefore, this research systematically investigated the causes of organic accumulation. Samples of soil affecting the quality of water of reservoirs were collected at various sources and analyzed for their organic characteristics. The COD to biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) ratio was used as the key para...
