in this research performed during 1993-1994, the effluent of behran oil refmery, in south of tehran, which produces different types of industrial oil and greases, was studied and 3 methods of gravity separation, coagulation and flocculation and dissolved air flotation were investigated. in the first phase of the survey, the quality and quantity of the effluent were determined. this showed an av...

Aerobic granule characteristic in sequencing batch reactors treating high-nitrogen digester supernatant was investigated at cycle lengths (t) of 6, 8 and 12 h with the COD/N ratios in the influent of 4.5 and 2.3. The biomass production (Y obs) correlated with the extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in grams per COD removed. Denitrification efficiency significantly decreased as the amount o...

background : textile wastewater is the most important pollutant of the environment. navy blue (nb) ce-rn is an important chemical dye widely used in the textile industry. the present study aimed to investigate the removal of nb textile dyes from aqueous solutions using magnetic iron oxide absorbents. methods: in this study, a sample of synthetic wastewater with nb concentration of 50 mg/l was u...

Electrocoagulation (EC) is electrochemical water and wastewater treatment technology which in its simplest form uses an electrochemical cell where a dc voltage is applied to the electrodes, usually made of Iron or Aluminum, and the electrolyte is the water or wastewater. Current theory of EC has not been able to explain all the phenomena associated with the process, among others the differences...

background: car wash waste water contains several contaminants such as organic matter, oil, grease, detergents and phosphates, all of which are harmful for the environment. in this study, the application of electrocoagulation (ec) to treat car wash waste water has been studied, and the operating parameters optimized. the electro-fenton (ef) for further contaminant removal was also investigated....
