in this work application of seven synthetic polymers as adsorbents for the removal of hg(ii) from aqueous solution was studied. the equilibrium studies are systematically carried out in a batch process, covering various process parameters that include agitation time, adsorbent dosage, and ph of the aqueous solution. variations of hg(ii) concentration in solution have been studied through measur...

ammonium ions wastewater pollution has become one of the most serious environmental problems today. the treatment of ammonium ions is a special concern due to their recalcitrance and persistence in the environment. in recent years, various methods for ammonium ion removal from wastewater have been extensively studied. this paper reviews the current methods that have been used to treat ammonium ...

background: yazd waste stabilization pond facilities consist of three stabilization pond systems, module 1, module 2 and module 3 that awsp module 1 has started its operation. the existing facilities have had several problems in their operation. the objectives of this research were to evaluate the performance of stabilization ponds in wastewater treatment of the city of yazd, due to several pro...

The removal of phosphorus (P) from domestic wastewater is primarily to reduce the potential for eutrophication in receiving waters, and is mandated and common in many countries. However, most P-removal technologies have been developed for use at larger wastewater treatment plants that have economies-of-scale, rigorous monitoring, and in-house operating expertise. Smaller treatment plants often ...

background: selection of different wastewater treatment methods depends on the kind of wastewater, geographical position of the community, quantity and quality of wastewater and effluent, technology and finance. natural wastewater treatment methods are simple, cheap and acceptable for developing countries specially small and remote countries and wetland is one of these methods. wetlands include...

The aim of study was to compare carcass characteristics of broiler housed under two different rearing systems (cage and floor) in three housing zones. For this purpose, 240 day old commercial broilers (Hubbard Classic) were purchased and half of them were reared in cages and other half on floor. Under each system, the birds were further divided in three zones of house (near vent, middle and nea...

Pasteurellosis is one of the important economic diseases in ruminants, especially in cows and buffaloes. It is caused by Pasteurella multocida and occasionally by Mannheimia haemolytica. The aim of this study was to isolate Pasteurella multocida from lungs with probable mentioned bacterial agents in cows and buffaloes in Urmia's slaughter house. 240 lung samples over a period of 12 months were ...

abstract background: heavy metals in industrial wastewater especially chromium (vi) are considered as the main environmental pollutants. methods: electrochemical cell made of plexiglass with a volume of 1.95 lit was used. iron and graphite electrodes, electricity conductor, each with dimensions of 0.1×3×10 cm (width×length×height) were designed and built. tests were carried out in various condi...

abstract- as the world's population has grown and become more urban and affluent, waste production has raised drastically. wastewater reuse has been identified as a way to alleviate water scarcity and improve crop productivity and environmental sustainability. to address the issue, a soil column experiment was carried out in a 3 × 3 factorial randomized block design including three treatments o...
