Removal of heavy metals and suspended solids from shrimp culture wastewater in Bushehr Province, using cold plasma technology
Authors
Abstract:
The present work has been carried out to investigate the removal efficiency of active oxygen, produced by using APGP cold plasma sterilizer, on the heavy metals of Hg, Pb and Total Suspended Solids in discharge wastewater of Shif shrimp culture complex and Persian Gulf SPF shrimp research center in Bushehr province. The maximum of removal efficiency for Hg and Pb were 66% and 74%, respectively, in 10 ppm samples. The removal efficiency for Hg and Pb in pilot phase in all studied samples were 100%. The maximum of removal efficiency for TSS was 76.3% in Persian Gulf SPF shrimp research center wastewater. The removal optimum time for all studied parameters was one hour. The results of variance analysis showed a negative and significant relationships between active oxygen and the concentrations of Hg, Pb and TSS (p-values <0.05). The concentrations of Hg, Pb and TSS in the treated wastewaters with active oxygen were less than the Iranian Environmental Protection Organization (IEPO) regulations for discharge limit into surface water.

Bone charcoal, a mixed adsorbent containing around 10% carbon and 90% calcium phosphate, is mainly produced by thermal treatment of bones. Structurally, calcium phosphate in bone charcoal is in the hydroxyapatite form [1-2]. Traditionally, bone charcoal has been used to remove color in sugar solutions in the sugar refining industry. Recent studies use bone charcoal to adsorb radioisotopes of an...

An enhanced electrokinetic process for removal of metals (Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb, Zn) from an industrial wastewater sludge was performed. The electrokinetic experiments were conducted under a constant potential gradient (1.25 V cm(-1)) with processing fluids of tap water (TW), sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and citric acid (CA) for 5 days. Results showed that metal removal efficiency of heavy metals f...
