background: today, in many countries, wastewater treatment plants effluent is an important part of the renewable water resources. in this case, the effluent quality standards are developed and used is important. the aim of this study was to investigate the potential use of wastewater plants effluent restricted irrigation. methods: in this descriptive - analytical study, samples was collected fr...

this study aimed to find an appropriate way to minimize water utility in the petrochemical and petroleum industries. for this purpose, tehran oil refinery was chosen to analyze feasibilities of regeneration, reuse and recycling in the water network. in this research, two key contaminants including cod and hardness were analyzed. amount of freshwater was reduced about 180 m3/h (53%) and 216.88 m...

the growing scarcity of fresh water is driving the implementation of wastewater treatment and water reuse on an increasingly large scale. various methods have been developed and used for water reuse from wastewater; however, the membrane distillation (md) process, as a promising separation technology, has recently gained more attention. the md process is a non-isothermal membrane-based separati...

minimizing their wastes. The concept of such minimization, recycling, zero discharge (all aspects of the same reuse philosophy) is appealing and straightforward. The reality often is not: In some cases a highly organic wastewater, as from a paper mill or a food processing facility, has to be converted to a highpurity stream. As if this is not challenge enough, such treatment must be consistent,...

during past decades, increased wastewater production by human activities intensified the problem of wastewater usewithout causing undesirable impacts on the environment and human life. however, practice of wastewater use inirrigation crops and green spaces needs careful control because of the potential presence of unwanted constituents such asheavy metals and organic contaminants. this research...

decolorization of aqueous solutions containing ionic dyes (reactive blue 19 and acid black 172) by a tfc commercial polyamide nanofilter (nf) in a spiral wound configuration was studied. the effect of operating parameters including feed concentration (60-180 mg/l), pressure (0.5-1.1 mpa) and ph (6-10) on dye removal efficiency was evaluated. the response surface method (rsm) was utilized for th...
