Effect of several irrigation of sugar industry effluent was studied on vegetative and yield characteristics of L. var. Varuna type 59. Crop showed vigrous enhancement in almost all the vegetative and yield characteristics studied and generally it was seen that the enhancement in vegetative and yield characteristics are directly related to the number of irrigation with sugar industry effluents. ...

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) release treated effluent containing mobile genetic elements (MGEs), antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), and microorganisms into the environment, yet little is known about their influence on nearby microbial communities and the retention of these factors in receiving water bodies. Our research aimed to characterize the genes and organisms from two different WW...

Bacteroidales and viruses were contemporaneously measured during dry and wet weather conditions at a watershed-scale in a semi-arid watershed impacted by a mixture of agricultural runoff, municipal wastewater effluent and municipal runoff. The results highlight the presence of municipal wastewater effluent as a confounding factor for microbial source tracking (MST) studies, and thus data were s...

  A novel rotating disc electrochemical (RDE) reactor has been developed to treat tannery effluent. Experiments were carried out in batch, batch recirculation, and once-through modes in the reactor covering wide range of operating conditions. The effect of current density (i), cathode rotation speed (R), electrolysis time (t), influent pH, and electrolyte flow rate (Q) on the pollutant removal ...

The fresh water fish Rasbora daniconius were exposed to two sublethal concentration of sugar factory effluent for 4 weeks studied. The concentration were record 1/5(2.2%) and 1/10(1.1%) of the 96 hrs LC 5O values of sugar factory effluent. The gills of R. daniconius showed the curling and degeneration and breaking of epithelium cells of the secondary gill lamellae, destruction of blood cells, b...

The treatment of distillery effluent was investigated experimentally by various advanced oxidation processes such as Fenton and ozone with different combination of UV and H2O2 system. The effect of operating parameters such as hydrogen peroxide concentration, initial effluent pH and Fe concentration on Fenton system for the percentage color and chemical oxygen demand removal has been studied. T...

Ever-tightening regulations on releases to the environment have become a major business factor for the chemical industry. The Organic Chemicals, Plastics, and Synthetic Fibers (OCPSF) effluent guidelines have required many manufacturing sites to expand or upgrade their wastewater treatment plants ("P) at considerable cost. Du Pont has recognized the need to shift the emphasis from "end-of-pipe'...

Moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) is a process in which attached growth is utilized for wastewater treatment. This process does not require sludge recycling or backwash. Activated sludge processes can be promoted to an MBBR by adding media to an aeration tank. Rapid sand filter is a physical method for the removal of total suspended solids (TSS) in advanced wastewater treatment. The purpose of ...

The treatment of electroplating industrial effluent by coconut husk was carried out by analyzing the physico-chemical parameters of the effluent such as pH, salinity, calcium, magnesium, phosphates, nitrates, BOD3 30C̊ and total solids using standard methods. The efficiency of coconut husk was tested by using it in different quantities such as 25, 50, 75 and 100 grams for five days. As a result,...

The patient, a 77-year-old-man, began peritoneal dialysis (PD) in August 2005. In January 2009, he developed lower abdominal pain and cloudy PD effluent. A diagnosis of peritonitis was made and Escherichia coli was detected in cultures of the PD effluent. An abdominal computed tomography scan showed a fish bone in the duodenal wall. An upper gastrointestinal endoscopy was performed, and a 3-cm ...
