dissolved organic nitrogen (don) can react with disinfectants to produce numerous disinfectionbyproducts (dbps), particularly nitrogen-containing dbps (n-dbps), and produce serious adverse effectson public health. widely used biological processes in drinking water treatment can increase don in effluents,and enhance these ill effects. this study investigated don in a full-scale two-stage ozonati...

the aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of coupling an electrochemical process with a biological treatment in order to degrade phosmet, an organophosphorous pesticide. the absence of biodegradability of phosmet by pseudomonas fluorescens and activated sludge was verified in our operational conditions. so, a conventional biological treatment is not appropriate for phosmet polluted...

introduction: the powdered activated carbon treatment (pact) has been proposed as an alternative in wastewater treatment and wastewater biomass protection against toxic substances. this study aims to evaluate pact performance in treating dyes, acid orange, and remazol brilliant reactive blue. methods: this empirical- applied research was carried out in pilot scale in which different dye removal...

the activated sludge process is the most used biological wastewater treatment method in the world. sludge bulking is one of the most common problems relateing to activated sludge wastewater treatment, and this fact causes poor settling in secondary sedimentation tank. sludge volume index(svi) and the zone settling velocity(zsv) are parameters to quantify the settleability of activated sludge . ...

semi-aerobic leachate is characterized by organic matter (cod, bod) which is relatively low in concentration and difficult to biodegrade. in conventional treatment systems, the low biodegradability is attributed to partial stabilization of leachate at the landfill. biological treatment of leachate in malaysia is not well established and any important data for the treatment process is not availa...

Production of human proteins in Pichia pastoris has significant advantages. However, there is still need for improvement in various stages of its downstream processing like clarification and purification. In fact downstream processes are usually the most critical part of production of biotech products. This work aimed to evaluate the effect of two steps added to the downstream processes ...
