In India, Pulp & paper industries have been large uses of portable water and consequently large generator of waste water. Anaerobic treatment of paper processing waste water has a distinct advantage of recovery of inherent energy in the form of methane gas with much less sludge production. A hybrid reactor that capitalizes on the positive features of anaerobic filter(AF) and up-flow anaerobic s...

Although water-cooled chillers are more energy efficient than air-cooled chillers, a majority of chilled water systems use air-cooled chillers. In cold weather climates, air-cooled chillers are capable of functioning in low ambient temperatures with few operational concerns, where as water-cooled chiller systems must be equipped to prevent cooling tower freezing. The integrated chiller system a...

SuperCritical Water Oxidation (SCWO) process is investigated at the Institut of Technical Chemistry, ITC-CPV. The objectives were to determine destruction efficiencies of model compounds and industrial waste effluents and to study the feasability of the SCWO process. Two continuous SCWO bench scale plants are operated: a pipe reactor and a transpiring wall reactor system (design data: T = 630 °...

In this study, the mass flow in double-strata nuclear fuel cycle is analysed based on mass inventory balance model, and the cost evaluation is carried out. As the commercial reactor fuel cycle, which is assumed to be sustainable in a significantly long term, the following different reactors and fuel cycles are considered: (1) Scheme of light water reactor (LWR-UOX and -MOX) based on sea water u...
