This study aims at coupling coal cinder filter with biological process to improve pharmaceutical wastewater quality and reduce the disposal cost. In the coal cinder filter, the removal efficiencies of COD, BOD(5), SS and color were 90+/-2%, 72+/-2%, 95+/-2% and 80+/-2%, respectively. The results attribute to the big specific surface area and strong adsorption ability. Coal cinder filter removes...

The potential of industrial wastewater reuse in Jordan is discussed. Industrial water requirements, wastewater production, types of pollutants in industrial wastewater and the technologies for wastewater treatment have been evaluated. A total of thirty industries have been reviewed. The total effluent from the thirty industries reviewed estimated at approximately 10,200 mVd. Of this amount, app...

Irrelevant inputs can cause deterioration of the network performance. This paper aims to implement features selection for water quality prediction model as the neural network generalization may be improved when the number of measured variables is reduced. Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) was introduced as a feature selection method, where it choose a subset of input variables by eliminat...

Abstract The objective of this work is to use multiple Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA)/Benefit the Doubt (BoD) approaches for readjustment and exploitation Human Development Index (HDI). HDI leading indicator vision “development as freedom”; it a Composite Index, wherein three dimensions (income, health, education), represented by four indicators, are aggregated. DEA-BoD used in were: tradition...

Tempat Pemrosesan Akhir (TPA) sampah Kaliori Banyumas merupakan TPA non aktif yang masih terdapat timbunan dan air lindi di lokasinya. Telah dilakukan penelitian untuk mengkaji polutan organik Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) Chemical (COD) dalam lindi, sumur sungai lingkungan tersebut. Berdasakan hasil pengujian, kadar COD melebihi baku mutu berdasarkan Peraturan Menteri Lingkungan Hidup Kehutan...

The effect of supplementary carbon addition for the treatment of high-technology industrial wastewater in a membrane bioreactor (MBR) was investigated. The MBR was operated for 302 days under different C/N (BOD(L)/NH(4)(+)-N) ratios, i.e. 0.9-1 to 20 days, 1.6-21 to 42 days, 2.9-43 to 82 days, 3.6-83 to 141 days, 4.8-165 to 233 days and 9.3-240 to 302 days. Irrespective of the C/N ratios invest...

The use of packed bed microbial fuel cell (MFC) for septic waste water remediation and electricity generation was carried out for 18 days retention period. In the study, the multistage microbial fuel cells were designed. Septic wastewater qualities such as Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), nitrate, TSS, and pH of both the raw and treated wastewater were determined in the laboratory on three days...

The present investigation provides data on physico-chemical parameters, some major ions and nutrients on water samples of Tinishu Akaki River (TAR), Ethiopia. The pH, temperature, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), dissolved oxygen (DO), chemical oxygen demand (COD), biological oxygen demand (BOD), Ca2+, Mg2+, HCO3-, SO42-, NO3-, NO2-, PO43-, Cland NH3 have been determined t...
