بررسی مشخصات فاضلاب قالی‌شویی‌های شهر تهران

MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Background and Objectives: since there is not any information about the quality and quantity of carpet cleaning wastewater, this study was done for the evaluation of carpet cleaning wastewater   characterization in Tehran.Materials and Methods: There are 122 carpet-cleaning units in Tehran. Compound samplings were taken from 10 randomly selected carpet-cleaning units. Each unit was sampled 5 times and analyzed based on the Standard Methods. Quality parameters measured included chemical oxygen demand (COD), detergent, color and suspended solids (SS), and data was analyzed using statistical software spss16.Results: Results showed that the amount of water usage for carpet cleaning was 30.84 liters per square meter of carpet washed. The average level of COD, color, detergent and SS in the effluent of carpet cleaning unit was 367.4   mg/l, 171.85 ADMI, 55.51 mg/l and 359.62 mg/l, respectively.Conclusion: The effluent characteristics of carpet cleaning units are almost with in the domestic wastewater range. However, since these wastes are disposed untreated into the environment which are then enter surface and groundwater, all measured parameter were higher than proposed standards regulated by EPA, So treating process must be done before disposal. !mso]> st1":*{behavior:url(#ieooui) } /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal" mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0 mso-tstyle-colband-size:0 mso-style-noshow:yes mso-style-priority:99 mso-style-qformat:yes mso-style-parent:"" mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt mso-para-margin:0cm mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt mso-pagination:widow-orphan font-size:11.0pt font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif" mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman" mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin mso-bidi-font-family:Arial mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi}
