Hardwood KP bleaching effluents, before (influent) and after (effluent) biological treatment, were characterized and compared to identify the main bio-recalcitrant organic compounds in the effluent. The results indicate that biological treatment reduces CODcr and BOD5 by 67% and 88%, respectively. However, various bio-recalcitrant organic compounds were still retained in the biologically-treate...

The horizontal drop film evaporator is a key component of the mechanical vapor recompression crystallization system, which can be used to evaporate effluent and recycle secondary energy. However, properties heat transfer flow salty sprayed external evaporation tube are obviously different from that ordinary water. We established 3D model for in water sodium sulfate mixture were manufactured rep...

ammonia (nh3) and nitrite (no2) toxic chemicals which resulted from fish culture, especially in intensive fish culture systems. to evaluate the efficiency of green algae scenedesmus quadricauda in ammonia and nitrite removal from intensive fish farm effluent and also its application as suitable culture medium for s. quadricauda , effluent water samples were collected from rainbow trout farm. si...

Adsorption of poliovirus from primary sewage effluent was similar to that from secondary sewage effluent in both batch soil studies and experiments with soil columns 240 cm long. Virus desorption by distilled water was also similar in a soil column that had been flooded with either primary or secondary effluent seeded with virus. These results indicated that absorption of poliovirus from primar...

The effluent generated from a thermal power plant waste is a mixture of several chemicals and to identify the effect of these chemicals on soil, a case study on naturally contaminated sites at Al-Musayyib region, Hilla city in Iraq has been carried out. Soil and water samples were collected from the sites and analyzed to identify the pollutants and their effect on soil characteristics. Laborato...

Climate change makes people to be aware about the environmental pollutions in aspect of Air, Water and Soil components. The environmentally aware countries have forced the other countries to implement the stringent effluent standards for disposal into water stream / water bodies. Hence, modern technology like the application of membrane separation (Micro or Ultra filtration) technique with biol...

The choice of management practices for the treatment of piggery effluent prior to its disposal to waterways or land is governed by the desire to simultaneously minimise the cost of treatment whilst minimising pollution of the environment. Laboratory experiments were conducted to compare the removal of total and total filterable phosphorus (P) (<0.45 microm) from ortho-phosphate solutions or pig...

Fish were collected from Nath Sagar, Paithan 50 kms away from Aurangabad and were brought to the laboratory and exposed to industrial effluent (tannery effluent). Behavioral changes and responses of the fish to the tannery effluent were observed. Control fish showed normal behaviour and swimming in contrast the effluent exposed fish showed abnormal swimming, loss of equilibrium, fading of colou...

The aim of the study was to investigate distribution, enrichment and accumulation of heavy metals in soil and Trigonella foenum-graecum (var. Pusa Early Bunching) after fertigation with paper mill effluent. Doses of paper mill effluent viz. 5%, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% were used for fertigation of T. foenum-graecum along with bore well water (control). The results revealed that paper mill ef...
