background: electrochemical methods, as one of the advanced oxidation processes (aops), have recently been applied to remove different contaminants from water and wastewater. this study compares the performance of anodic oxidation (ao) and electro-fenton (ef) methods on waste sludge treatment. methods: this experimental study was performed on real sludge and the effect of operating parameters s...

according to environmental protection organization of iran, maximum permissible concentration of residual phosphorus in treated municipal wastewater is 1 mg /l-p. the total average phosphorus concentration in raw municipal wastewater is about 8 mg / l; about 70 percent of the incoming phosphorus normally is discharged with secondary treatment plant effluents. in this research, the role of addin...

Introduction: Microcystin-leucine arginine (MC-LR) is a toxin with harmful effects on the liver, kidney, heart, and gastrointestinal tract. So, effective removal of MC-LR from water resources is of great importance. The aim of this study was to remove microcystin-LR (MC-LR) from aqueous solution by Titanium Dioxide (TiO2). Materials and Methods: In the present study, TiO2, as a semiconductor, ...

This paper tests the “Too-Big-to-Fail” hypothesis that whether being designated as a global systemically important bank (G-SIB) has an impact on CDS price of bank, thereby reducing its credit risk. We find surprising evidence spreads increase (decrease) after announcement higher (lower) capital surcharge. However, this effect is temporary, mean revert to pre-announcement level, dropping sharply...

biological removal of lead was observed in this study during treatment of synthetic solutions of this heavy metal by a sample of waste activated sludge (was) having mlss concentration of 10000 mg/l. the objective was determining the capability of was in removal of lead in three different conditions of treatment: without any aeration and feeding, by simultaneous aeration and feeding and by aerat...

background & aims of the study: dyes are one of the widespread chemicals which may have many adverse effects on life cycle. thus, this study was conducted to survey the rb19 dye removal efficacy from aqueous solution, using the sio2 nanoparticles. materials and methods: this study was an experimental-lab study. the batch adsorption system were utilized to evaluated the rb19 dye removal efficien...

The design of retaining walls depends on the magnitude of active pressure exerted from the backfill. Therefore, estimating the scale of this pressure is a fundamental factor in the design. In this study, to assess the active earth pressure, a rigid retaining wall was built capable of translating and/or rotating with adjustable speed. Further, several physical tests were conducte...
