New bacteria that was provided from contaminated soils surrounding the coal, aluminum, salt mines and wetland separated, synthesized and characterized. The achievements show that this soils and waters have five disposed bacteria consist of Microbacterium SP, Micrococcaceae Bacterium, Planomicrobium SP, Brevndimonas Aurantiaca and Halomonas SP. Secondly, the result of the potential of remova...

In developing countries, where economic expansion depends on extractive activities such as agriculture and mining, water quantity quality considerations need to be examined in tandem with GDP growth poverty reduction efforts. Poorest households the Tupiza watershed Bolivia are located rural areas access for irrigation safe drinking is becoming increasingly scarce. Small-scale unregulated mining...

Sustainable mining and mineral processing is of paramount importance for producing metals needed our society development. Membrane processes are able to contribute the comprehensive extraction from mined ores, while at same time decrease amounts used water reagents ensure discharge environment wastewater meeting legislation requirements. Membranebased technologies still underused in obtaining a...

BACKGROUND Discharging the oily wastewater in the environment causes serious problems, because of the oil compounds and organic materials presence. Applying biological methods using the lipase enzyme producer microorganisms can be an appropriate choice for treatment of these wastewaters. The aim of this study is to treat those oil wastewaters having high concentration of oil by applying lipase ...

Advanced wastewater treatment using membranes are popular environmental system processes since they allow reuse and recycling. However, fouling is a key limiting factor and so proprietary systems such as Avanti's RPU-185 Flexidisks membrane bioreactor (MBR) use novel rotating membranes to assist in ameliorating it. In earlier research, this rotating process was studied by creating a simulation ...

Rapid industrial growth has led to elevated discharges of toxic chemicals and nutrients in water bodies. The level of a particular pollutant discharged into water bodies depends on industrial activities in the vicinity. Industries such as textiles, mining, tanneries, metal plating, fertilizer and agroindustries, batteries, pesticides, ore refineries, petrochemicals, and paper manufacturing are ...
