Background & Aims of the Study: Spent filter backwash water (SFBW) consists of 1-5% of the total treated water typically and it has a high turbidity. Because of the scarcity of water resources and in order to prevent the environmental contamination, effluent treatment of rapid sand filter backwashing is unavoidable. One of the new technologies for removal of turbidity from the ...

As environmental regulations become more stringent, environmentally sound waste management and disposal are becoming increasingly more important in all aquaculture operations. One of the primary water quality parameters of concern is the suspended solids concentration in the discharged effluent. For example, EPA initially considered the establishment of numerical limitations for only one single...

Swash zone hydrodynamics has significant coastal geomorphological and engineering implications. However, there is still a research gap in fully understanding the response of bore-driven swash to varying beach slopes. Therefore, this study, laboratory experiments were performed flume investigate flows over impermeable smooth beaches with mild slope (1:35), steep (1:10), composite (1:35–1:10), re...

Rapid sand filters are very common in all conventional water treatment plants. Capping of existing rapid can be the promising method improving performance filters. is process which upper bed layer few cm replaced with capping material. However, this technique limited India due to unavailability filter materials apart from sand. Some suitable for anthracite coal, PVC granules, bituminous broken ...
