Waste Water Purification in Wide Water Area by Use of Micro-bubble Techniques.

Use of Chemical Oxygen Demand Values of Bacterial Cells in Waste-water Purification.

Four methods for determining substrate recoveries in studies concerned with the partition of substrate between sludge synthesis and respiration were investigated. An energy balance comparing chemical oxygen demand (COD) removed with the summation of oxygen uptake and the COD of the cells produced yielded average recoveries closer to 100% than any of the other three methods tested. The standard ...

Waste Water Treatment Using Micro-Algae - A review Paper

The present study illustrates the efficiency of microalgae based treatment system. Treatment of wastewater with Microalgae based system have the ability to remove nutrients (Nitrogen, Phosphorus and other nutrients), heavy metals, toxic substances (both organic and inorganic), BOD, COD and other impurities present in the wastewater by using the sunlight, CO2, and impurities like nutrients prese...

Air bubble growth in water.

Air Bubble Growth in Water

To the Editor:—I read with considerable interest the article by Benavides et al. describing experiments of air bubble growth in water during exposure to 100% nitrous oxide, 100% xenon, or 50% xenon–50% oxygen. Although the experiments were nicely conducted, they explore a physics of gas flux in an unconstrained bubble permitted to grow spherically. Importantly, this geometry has limited biologi...

Use of hydrodynamic cavitation in (waste)water treatment.

The use of acoustic cavitation for water and wastewater treatment (cleaning) is a well known procedure. Yet, the use of hydrodynamic cavitation as a sole technique or in combination with other techniques such as ultrasound has only recently been suggested and employed. In the first part of this paper a general overview of techniques that employ hydrodynamic cavitation for cleaning of water and ...
