Treatment of vegetable oily wastewater using an integrated microfiltration–reverse osmosis system

Chemical Cleaning of Utafiltration Membrane after Treatment of Oily Wastewater

Bond Graph Modeling of an Integrated Biological Wastewater Treatment System

Compared with abstract pure mathematical representation of a system and rough engineering drawings, the concept of bond graphs provide us a unique graphical view based on energy interactions among different domains. Bond graphs sit in the middle between equation sets and schematic block graphs, combining most of the advantages from both. The bond graph approach has already been shown to be effe...

Removal of Crude Oil from Oily Artificial Wastewater by Using Pulse Electrochemical Treatment

In this study electrocoagulation (EC) process with sacrificial aluminum anode was used to separate crude oil from synthetic oily wastewater emulsion. A preliminary experimental study was performed to evaluate the most accurate operating parameters, which are then used for the determination of crude oil removal efficiency. The experimental results indicated that electrocoagulation was very e...

Forward Osmosis in Wastewater Treatment Processes.

In recent years, membrane technology has been widely used in wastewater treatment and water purification. Membrane technology is simple to operate and produces very high quality water for human consumption and industrial purposes. One of the promising technologies for water and wastewater treatment is the application of forward osmosis. Essentially, forward osmosis is a process in which water i...

An integrated wastewater treatment system for land-based fish-farming

A newly developed low cost system for fish-farm wastewater treatment was evaluated. The system consisted two major parts: (1) a new type of square tank design with two separate outlets, i.e. one centrally positioned high solids concentration outlet and one corner located low solids concentration primary outlet; and (2) a stationary bowed screen for solid removal from the high solids effluent. R...
