boiling of water for its purification has been recommended since 500 b. o. modern desinfecition methods involve specialized treatments for the purpose of destroying or inactivating pathogenic organisms . different factors .in flu - ensing the efficiency of desinfection are considered in this article physical and chemical methods of water desinfection are described briefly the use of chemical ox...

Waste water purification is shown to be an important field of environmental hygiene for non-ferrous metal industries. Hydrometallurgy becomes of greater importance for metal production and refining. Quality standards for drinking water and rivers require a minimum of some harmful impurities, e.g. metal compounds. The unit operations of hydrometallurgy technologically parallel the methods of eff...

gorganrood river is one of the three main rivers in golestan province have a basic role in golestan water supply. to study gorganrood water quality and estimating maximum allowable pollutant, water quality data was used from 8 stations. purification of this river has been studied by two methods: statistical and experimental methods. each method showed that the gorganrood river at present condit...

Titania has attracted considerable interest for use in water purification applications due to its excellent photocatalytic activity. To further improve the efficiency of photocatalysis, numerous nanostructures (i.e. nanoparticles, nanotubes, and nanowires) have been proposed to increase the surface area of titania. Despite the high photocatalytic performance of the nanostructured titania, subse...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality of water purification system and identify the bacteria this system, predict bacterial adherence according to the hydrophobicity of these microorganisms and of the polypropylene distribution loop for purified water. The assessment of drinking water that supplies the purification system allowed good-quality physical, chemical, and microbiolo...

As insufficient access to clean water is expected to become worse in the near future, water purification is becoming increasingly important. Membrane filtration is the most promising technologies to produce clean water from contaminated water. Although there have been many studies to prepare highly water-permeable carbon-based membranes by utilizing frictionless water flow inside the carbonaceo...

As the natural purification of the traditional artificial floating island is very slow, the purpose of this research is to explore the efficiency of the green energy artificial floating island (GAFI) to improve water quality. We constructed experimental models near the bank of Lize Lake at MingDao University in Taiwan, where the surrounding waters and wastewater from the dormitories served as t...

A potentially-economic three-fold strategy, to use solid olive wastes in water purification, is presented. Firstly, oil remaining in solid waste (higher than 5% of waste) was recovered by the Soxhlet extraction technique, which can be useful for the soap industry. Secondly, the remaining solid was processed to yield relatively high-surface area active carbon (AC). Thirdly, the resulting carbon ...
