The increasing amount of oily wastewater discharges caused major challenges for current environmental issues, such as oil-water purification and separation [1-6] . Thus, the development new functional materials efficient treatment is imperative [7-11] This paper reviewed recently developed technologies, which were based on novel nanomaterials, presented representative works in detail. Finally, ...

Industrial developments in the oil and gas, petrochemical, pharmaceutical food sector have contributed to large production of oily wastewater worldwide. Oily pollution affects drinking water groundwater resources, endangers aquatic life human health, causes atmospheric pollution, crop production. Several traditional conventional methods were widely reported, advantages limitations discussed. Ho...

BACKGROUND, AIM, AND SCOPE Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are often found in oily wastewaters. Their presence is usually the result of human activities and has a negative effect on the environment. One important step in addressing this problem is to evaluate the effectiveness of PAH removal by biological processes since these are the most cost-effective treatments known today. Many tec...

background wastewaters with high salt content disturb the metabolic function of microorganisms causing plasmolysis or activity loss in microorganisms, so the efficiency of biological treatment of saline wastewater by conventional microorganisms will decrease. objectives this study aimed to find the outbreak of disorder in the biological wastewater treatment process and how much salt leads to lo...
