In the present study, advanced oxidation treatment, UV/ was applied to decolourisation of Acid Orange 8 (AO8). The UV radiation was carried out with a 15 W low-pressure mercury lamp. Kinetic model for the decolourisation of the dye was developed based on experimental results and known chemical and photochemical reactions. The observed kinetic reaction constant was determined and correlated as a...

Application of plasma oxidation for removal pharmaceuticals in urine was assessed and compared to a traditional advanced process.

the saline tannery wastewater also contains the high concentration of organic materials and various chemical compounds like lime, sodium sulfite, sulfate ammonium, sodium chloride, disinfections, vegetable tannins, salts of chromium and chloride. in recent years different applications of advanced oxidation processes (aops) are applied to remove organic loading (cod) from wastewater. advanced ox...

Atherogenesis comprises three stages, including intimal thickening, plaque formation and destabilization and rupture of the plaque. Intimal thickening develops depending upon aging and is characterized by increased collagenous matrix. Plaque formation is characterized by an accumulation of intraand extracelluar lipids in intima, resulting in the advanced lesion with atheroma. Finally, advanced ...

In recent years, semiconductor photocatalytic process has shown a great potential as a lowcost, environmental friendly and sustainable treatment technology to align with the“zero” waste scheme in the water/wastewater industry. The ability of this advanced oxidation technology has been widely demonstrated to remove persistent organic compounds and microorganisms in water. This paper presents the...

Treatment of recalcitrant wastewater by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) is influenced by several factors. Due to complexity of the processes, they are difficult to be modelled and simulated using conventional mathematical modelling. Artificial neural network is used in many areas of science and engineering as a promising tool because of its simplicity in simulation, prediction and modelling...

The world’s chemical industries face formidable environmental regulatory challenges in treating their wastewater effluents. The present work aims at highlighting the various industrial wastewater treatment technologies currently available including physico-chemical and biological processes as well as constructed wetland and conventional or advanced oxidation processes. Activated carbon prepared...

Drill mud is a fluid which is used in oil extraction industries in order to cool and lubricate the drill bit. Due to containing numerous toxic components, it is considered as a hazardous waste which must be treated before discharging to the environment. Current separation techniques for drill cutting treatment can be categorized into three main categories of physical (dewatering), physiochemica...
