Inorganic arsenic removal from water using low-cost adsorbents is presented in this paper. Selective removal of As(III) and As(V) from water was performed with natural materials (zeolite, bentonite, sepiolite, pyrolusite and limonite) and industrial by-products (waste filter sand as a water treatment residual and blast furnace slag from steel production); all inexpensive and locally available. ...

abstract in order to investigate the removal of copper, nickel, zinc and chromium from industrial waste water by a sand–soil–organic matter filter column, this experiment was conducted at a completely randomized design with sixteen treatments and four replications. p.v.c tubes (columns) with 66.5 cm height and 10 cm diameter were chosen and filled from down to top by coarse gravel (15 cm), sand...

aims: chromium is one of the most important metallic pollutants in plating industry wastewater. this toxic metal is a serious threat to human health and to the environment due to its cumulative effects and non-degradability. this research intended to study the effects of ph, contact time, and voltage on the degree of chromium removal from wastewater of plating industry by using the electrocoagu...

conclusions based on nitrification and denitrification data, the best condition for nitrifying/ denitrifying performance was obtained by modified-ifas. hence, the modification can be used to obtain the best activities of microbial and nitrogen removal improvement. results employing the bet, surface area (sa), total pore volume (vp), and average size of the nanostructure were 0.4026 m2/g, 3.8089...
