Since a high toxicity of cyanide which use as a reagent in the gold processing plant, thiosulfate has been recognized as a environmental friendly reagent for leaching of gold from ore. After gold leaching process it's important for recovery of gold from solution using adsorption or extraction methods, One of these methods is activated carbon.The loading of gold from industrial thiosulfate solut...

background: the widespread use of toluene and its consequent adverse effects on health and specially its chronic effects on the central nervous system has resulted in many studies being carried out on the methods that can control and reduce toluene vapors in the airflow. the objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the catalytic ozonation process in the removal of toluene from ...

in this work, the removal of copper from an aqueous solution by granular activated carbon (gac) in the presence of competitor ions was studied. a batch adsorption was carried out and different parameters such as ph, contact time, initial copper concentration and competitor ions concentration were changed to determine the optimum conditions for adsorption. the optimum ph required for maximum ads...

abstract introduction: due to environmental and human health concerns related to humic acid (ha), mainly leading to disinfection by-products creation, removal or reduction of this matters is a necessary for drinking water suppliers. based on resistive economy map road and move to self-sufficiency, it is necessary to produce our need in water treatment industry. one of the main consumed material...

feasibility of methanolic wastes treatment containing chlorophenol in experimental uasb reactors i.e. r-i and r-ii working side by side constantly for a couple of almost 32 weeks were studied. uasb reactor r-i was initiated by utilizing the digested sludge alone, whereas, the uasb reactor r-ii was startedup by adding an activated carbon of an effective size 1.5-2.5mm to the digested sludge with...

Large amount of wastes is generated every year from the industrial processing of agricultural raw materials. Most of these wastes are used as animal feed or burned as alternative for elimination. However, such wastes usually have a composition rich in sugars, minerals and proteins, and therefore, they should not be considered “wastes” but raw materials for other industrial processes. The presen...

Utilization of agricultural waste to produce valuable products has opened opportunities in Egypt to minimize serious public health risks from exposure to dangerous fumes that come from burning the agricultural wastes in open fields. In this study, activated carbon produced locally from cotton stalks was examined for the removal of target heavy metal contaminants from water and wastewater. Adsor...

This study, through an incubation experiment, evaluates the effect that different biomass ashes exert on the extractability of nutrients and some chemical parameters and dehydrogenase activity of a slightly acid soil. Three types of as were selected: two new ashes generated by the dry combustion of olive cake or by gasification of greenhouse vegetable wastes, and a third produced by wood combus...
