This study was undertaken to evaluate a novel aerobic wastewater treatment model for the remediation of refinery effluents and to assess the removal efficiency of Bulkholderia cepacia strain AJI and Corynebacterium kutscheri strain AJ2 to clean oil waste from petrochemical company. Wastewater quality parameters including pH, BOD5, COD, TDS, OIL & GREASE, PHENOL concentration, TPH and THC were m...

results the soil was largely composed of silt and clay (silt:41 - 42%, clay: 40 - 43%, sand: 15 - 18%). the average moisture content of the saturated soil was 12.96%,; average electricity conductivity was 18.64 dsm-1; average ph of the paste was 8.36; and average percentage of organic carbon was 0.19%. result of the laboratory analysis reported the average content of total nitrogen as 0.026%, p...

Background: Petroleum hydrocarbons that are released from industrial processes cause damage to aquatic life and degrade ecosystems by accumulating in the food chain, allowing living organisms produce toxic secretions. Methods: In this study, a pumice stone was used remove total petroleum (TPHs) wastewater south refinery company Iraq/Basrah coagulation flocculation using design of experiments (D...

The aim of this paper is to investigate whether simulated Jordan refinery wastewater can be treated through electrocoagulation (EC) conform the most stringent Jordanian norms for reusing irrigation cut flowers and perform cost analysis a treatment plant whose core are EC reactors. method used estimating fixed (capital) costs taken from literature based on study estimate (factored estimate) that...
