Mijangos, F. and Diaz, M., 1990. Ion exchange recovery of metals from waste water of complex sulfide hydrometallurgy. Hydrometallurgy. 23: 365-375. The treatment by ion exchange ol' waste water from comples sulfide hydrometallurgy has Iwen studied. Several commercial resins have been tested for a range of pH in solution. The equilibrium results with an iminodiacetic resin for the multicomponent...

Agricultural waste biomass generated from agricultural production and food processing industry are abundant, such as durian  peel, mango peel, corn straw, rice bran, corn shell, potato peel and many more. Due to low commercial value, these wastes are disposed in landfill, which if not managed properly may cause environmental problems. Currently, environmental laws and regulations pertaining to ...

Pharmaceutical industry represents a range of industries with operation and processes as diverse as its product. Hence effluents coming from pharma industries vary from industry to industry. Thus it is almost impossible to describe a typical pharmaceutical effluent because of such diversity. Waste water is generally evaluated in terms of temp, pH, Total suspended solid (TSS), BOD, COD, Oil & gr...

INTRODUCTION Anaerobic technology have been successful applied for industrial waste water treatment. High reaction rate per unit volume by retaining the biomass in the reactor independently of the incoming waste water flow and concentration. Often high volumetric loading rates in the order of 10 to 40 kg COD/m.d are used. High rate anaerobic biological reactors may be classified into three broa...

The bioremediation of industrial waste water by macroalgae is a sustainable and renewable approach to the treatment of waste water produced by multiple industries. However, few studies have tested the bioremediation of complex multi-element waste streams from coal-fired power stations by live algae. This study compares the ability of three species of green freshwater macroalgae from the genus O...

Chemicals are the building blocks for products that meet our most fundamental needs for food, shelter, and health. The chemical industries discharge contaminated waste water that requires appropriate treatment before safe discharge in the environment. Effluent is toxic in nature, due to Presence of aromatic compounds (like benzene, toluene, and xylene). The aim of this study is to check the fea...

It has been a long since problem of waste treatment and their disposal. Waste management does create a major problem if it is not properly performed. Various problems including different side effects occur to the people where untreated or partially treated waste is disposed, thus care should be taken while waste management and disposal. It becomes more difficult a job to perform radionuclide th...

In this paper, we demonstrate the functionality and functionalisation of waste particles as an emulsifier for oil-in-water (o/w) and water-in-oil (w/o) emulsions. Ground coffee waste was chosen as a candidate waste material due to its naturally high content of lignin, a chemical component imparting emulsifying ability. The waste coffee particles readily stabilised o/w emulsions and following hy...
