Reclamation and reuse programs are an indispensable part of integrated water resource management, particularly in arid and semi arid regions. Yet, the feasibility of sustainable application not only is relied on design, operation and maintenance of wastewater treatment plants, but also could be influenced by the economical and environmental aspects of reuse demands. This study is aimed to illus...
متن کاملA Review on Applications of Membrane Distillation (MD) Process for Wastewater Treatment
The growing scarcity of fresh water is driving the implementation of wastewater treatment and water reuse on an increasingly large scale. Various methods have been developed and used for water reuse from wastewater; however, the membrane distillation (MD) process, as a promising separation technology, has recently gained more attention. The MD process is a non-isothermal membrane-based separati...

متن کاملA review of Dolochar reuse methods (waste from sponge iron factories)
Background and Objective: Dolochar is the residual ash from the production of sponge iron in the process of direct reduction of iron ore by the coal-based method. In Iran, this waste is transported to the nearest landfill. However, these methods are a major environmental concern due to the fineness of the waste and the presence of heavy metals in its composition. The aim of the present study is...
