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...

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...

background : the sequencing batch reactor (sbr) is one of the most widely used systems in sewage treatment because of the simplicity of the process, flexibility of operation in the removal of nutrients, and the ability to be used in different scales. the aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of the sbr in the removal of organic matter (nitrogen and phosphorus) from synthetic wastewat...

textile wastewater contains substantial pollution loads in terms of chemical oxygen demand (cod), biological oxygen demand (bod), total suspended solids (tss), total dissolved solids (tds) and heavy metals. phytoremediation used for removing heavy metals and other pollutants by aquatic macrophytes treatment systems (amats) is well established environmental protective technique. a lab scale stud...

reaction constants and heat release during thermophilic aerobic digestion of typical secondary and mixed sludges were determined. maximum reaction constant, determined by measuring the amounts of biodegradable volatile suspended solids (bvss) removed, occurred in the temperature range of 55-60 ºc. measurement of heat releases were carried out, at the same range, by the aid of a temperature prog...

background low-cost anaerobic sequencing batch reactor (asbr), which is widely used for controlling high-organic wastewater, is an effective method to remove chemical oxygen demand (cod). objectives the main objectives was evaluating the feasibility of using asbr in the treatment of synthetic dairy wastewater, determining its removal efficiency, and assessing the effect of temperature on operat...

the removal performance of total poly phenols and orthodiphenols (o-diphenols) content in olive mill waste (omw) was investigated with a three stages cross flow laboratory scale rotating biological contactor (rbc) in the present study. due to high cod and other pollutant in the original omw, physico-chemical treatment was effected for cod and other pollutant reduction prior to biological treatm...

background: the modeling aims to simulate or optimize a process in physical, chemical or biological environments and the derived model will provide a considerable assistance to generate data and predict unknown condition, in case of sufficient suitability. unsuitable disposal and elimination of waste tires have polluted the environment and human life areas, it also have caused removal of a huge...
