Purpose. To determine the optimal combination and consumption of coagulants flocculants in treatment drilling wastewater, followed by determination acute lethal toxicity obtained illuminated liquid phase. Methods. Primary clarification phase waste was carried out method chemical coagulation using organic "Magnafloc" "ECOFLOC" as a coagulant. In case insufficient degree purification wastewater m...

Hydrological changes affect not only the physicochemical factors and habitat structure of river ecosystems, but also biological communities sensitive to environmental changes, such as zooplankton. In this study, we investigate effects weir opening on variables topographic structures at Sejong Weir in South Korea monitor resulting distribution zooplankton community. led increased dissolved oxyge...

In response to nuisance growths of algae and vascular plants, such as dioecious hydrilla ( Hydrilla verticillata L.f. Royle), copper formulations have been applied in lakes and reservoirs for a number of years. Concerns have arisen regarding the long-term consequences of copper applications and those concerns have appropriately focused on sediment residues. In this study, we evaluated the toxic...

Food availability may affect metal toxicity for aquatic organisms. In the present study, the influence of high, medium and low densities of the algae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata (10(6), 10(5) and 10(4) cells.mL(-1), respectively) on the chronic toxicity of chromium to the cladoceran Ceriodaphnia dubia was investigated. C. dubia was exposed to a range of chromium concentration from 2.71 to 3...
