ammonia (nh3) and nitrite (no2) toxic chemicals which resulted from fish culture, especially in intensive fish culture systems. to evaluate the efficiency of green algae scenedesmus quadricauda in ammonia and nitrite removal from intensive fish farm effluent and also its application as suitable culture medium for s. quadricauda , effluent water samples were collected from rainbow trout farm. si...

the ultimate goal of this work was to recommend and install the necessary advanced wastewater treatment facilities to allow southern service company to continue discharging wastewater into st. bernard sewerage district no. 1 sanitary sewer system. as of june 14, 1976, these facilities were installed and fully operational. the resulting waste-water effluent was tested and found to be totally acc...

INTRODUCTION Early prediction of the efficacy of treatment in peritonitis complicating peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the best way to reduce morbidity. We studied the prognostic value of the third-day dialysis effluent leukocyte count after antibiotic therapy for prediction of treatment outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Medical records of 31 children on PD, younger than 15 years old, admitted in A...

The operation of an activated sludge process at a paper mill (AIPM) in Hedera, Israel, was often characterized by disturbances. As part of a research and development project, a study on new biological treatment was initiated. The study included the operation of three pilot units: a. anaerobic treatment by upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB); b. aerobic treatment by two pilot units including ...

This paper analyses the treatment effect of the "coagulation-sedimentation-O3-biological sand filtration-GAC" combined process on phthalic acid esters in secondary effluent of municipal wastewater treatment plant and meanwhile evaluate its health risk. The results indicated that when the concentrations of DBP and DiOP in secondary effluent were at range of 0.41 mg/L-0.814 mg/L and 0.23 mg/L-0.3...

This paper deals with the study of bacteriological quality of effluents that have undergone consecutively different macrofiltration system (pressure sand filter or disc filter used as a secondary treatment) and UV254 irradiation process (used as a tertiary treatment). These two successive systems of treatment were evaluated to determine their possible application as commonly alternatives to the...

Membrane filtration can be used in the pulp and paper industry to recover material as well as prevent waste by-products from entering the water course. In addition, depending on the application, membrane systems can be used to remove impurities or to concentrate and purify, either as an aid to recovering valuable raw material or to improve product yields. With increasingly strict legislation on...
