On the analysis of phenol removal from drinking water by batch reactor using powdered eggshell Giti

Removal of phenol from water by adsorption-flocculation using organobentonite.

Bentonite modified with short chain cationic surfactant might be the basis of a new approach to removing organic pollutants from water. The treatment process involves dispersing bentonite to the contaminated water and then adding a small cationic surfactant so as to result in flocs which are agglomerates of organobentonite and bound organic pollutants. The flocs are then removed from the soluti...

Characteristics of MEG Removal from Industrial Wastewater by Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR)

Background: MEG is extensively applied in the sour gas industry as a hydrate inhibitor. It is toxic in oral drinking and serious injury or death may result from swallowing of pure ethylene glycol and poses a potential hazard to the environment through impact soil. Glycols are harmful to aquatic life. There is little information about the digestion of MEG in the aerobic reactor. Therefore, t...

Fluoride removal by using a batch electrocoagulation reactor

Nitrogen Removal from Wastewater by a Sequencing Batch Reactor

Sequencing batch reactor (SBR) is one of several periodically operated, suspended-growth activated sludge system. It has an advantage for nitrogen removal which is difficult to remove with conventional system. This paper reviewed the nitrogen removal performance in SBR for several different industrial wastewaters and discussed the factors which may affect the treatment performance. Several modi...

Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor Performance in Phenol Removal from Wastewater

Background: Phenolic compounds are found in wastewater of many industries such as pulp and paper, textile, petrochemical, oil refineries, production of phenolic resins, plastics, coal furnace, tannery, rubber reclamation plant, fertilizers, coke, paints, rubber, decolorizer, resins, rubber and phenol- formaldehyde resin industries. This study aimed to evaluate Moving Bed Biofil...
