Nickel removal from electroplating industry wastewater: A bamboo activated carbon
Water is prime requirement for surviving of any living beings. The existence of surface water and groundwater sources are used for domestic, agriculture and industrial purposes in all over the world. Fresh water from both the water sources is highly contaminated in recent years because of rapid population growth, modern agriculture and industrial growth. Among them, contamination of water sour...
متن کاملTowards application of activated carbon treatment for pharmaceutical removal in municipal wastewater
Many pharmaceuticals are found in municipal wastewater effluents due to their persistence in the human body as well as in conventional wastewater treatment processes. This discharge to the environment can lead to adverse effects in aquatic species, such as feminization of male fish. During the past decade, these findings have spawned investigations and research into suitable treatment technolog...
متن کاملPhenol Removal from Aqueous Solutions by Adsorption on Activated Carbon of Miswak’s Root Treated with KMnO4
Background and Purpose: Phenol and derivatives are common pollutants of drinking water which are blamed for crucial adverse effects such as poisoning, cancer, and malformation. In this study, an activated carbon of Miswak’s root (MR) was used for the removal of phenol from aqueous solutions as a low-cost and high surface adsorbent. Materials and Methods: Adsorption exper...
متن کاملProtein removal from salt-laden wastewater by activated carbon
One of the wastewaters from tanning industry (soak liquor) contains 0.4 g/L of dissolved protein. During coagulation and flocculation 41% of protein was removed. A suggestion has been made to remove the residual protein by adsorption technique. The optimum conditions for adsorption of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) on rice bran based activated carbon (RBAC) were arrived. Maximum adsorption of BSA t...
