Oil Refinery Wastewater Treatment by Advanced Oxidation Processes for Chemical Oxygen Demand Removal using the Box-Behnken Method

This study investigated the reduction of the chemical oxygen demand from the Kermanshah oil refinery wastewater using Fenton and Photo-Fenton processes. The study investigated the effects of operating variables such as ultraviolet light intensity in values of 0, 15, and 30 W, ferrous ion concentration in values of 10, 50, and 90 mg/l, hydrogen peroxide concentration in values of 100, 500 and, 9...

Comet assay comparison of different Corbicula fluminea (Mollusca) tissues for the detection of genotoxicity

The comet assay was used to study the sensitivity of the widely distributed freshwater bivalve mollusk Corbicula fluminea to the DNA-damaging alkylating-agent methylmethane sulfonate (MMS). This study was undertaken to ascertain if C. fluminea is a good bioindicator of pollutants in aquatic environments and identify which C. fluminea tissue is most effective and practical for genotoxicity studi...

The Removal of Amoxicillin with Zno Nanoparticles in Combination with US-H2O2 Advanced Oxidation Processes from Aqueous Solutions

Background and purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of zinc oxidenanoparticles (ZnO NPs) in combination with US-H2O2 advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for the removal of antibiotic amoxicillin (AMO) from aquatic environment. Materials and Methods: This experimental study was conducted in a batch reactor system. The effect of the parameters, such as pH (3-8), the dose...

Comparison of advanced oxidation processes for the removal of natural organic matter.

This study examined the impact of UV, ozone (O(3)), advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) including O(3)/UV, H(2)O(2)/UV H(2)O(2)/O(3) in the change of molecular weight distribution (MWD) and disinfection by-product formation potential (DBPFP). Bench-scale experiments were conducted with surface river water and changes in the UV absorbance at 254 nm (UV(254)), total organic carbon (TOC), trihalom...
