Wastewater management in two companies representing the pharmaceutical industry was investigated and implemented. The results showed that the integration of the pollution prevention approach followed by an equalization tank reduced the organic load up to 70%, while further chemical treatment using either alum or ferric chloride aided with lime produced a quality of effluent suitable for restric...

ATP-bioluminescence assay was used to evaluate the cleaning and sanitizing procedures of stainless steel milk contact surfaces. Surfaces of a raw milk transportation tank, a raw milk cooling storage tank, an equalization pasteurizing tank, a pasteurized milk storage tank and a pasteurized milk packaging tank, as well as a milk centrifuge were evaluated. The Relative Light Unit (RLU) using a com...

Pelareh Dairy Industry (PDI) is located in the west of Iran. The aim of the present study was to assess the quality and quantity of PDI wastewater and compare the results with the regulations. PDI has a wastewater treatment plant that consists of sewage collection system, screening system, equalization tank, clarification tank, anaerobic system for pretreatment, activated sludge processing, dis...

Abstract The layouts of most urban water systems are known. A head tank with an appropriate elevation is used to supply through the network at a pressure equal (or higher) that set by relevant standards. Furthermore, equalization, fire and emergency storage important benefits use, as possibility avoiding peak rate electricity fares. However, end last century, some tanks were reported have negat...

Let S be a set of n points in Rd in general position. A set H of k-flats is called an mk-stabber of S if the relative interior of any m-simplex with vertices in S is intersected by at least one element of H. In this paper we give lower and upper bounds on the size of minimum mk-stabbers of point sets in Rd and in general position. We study mainly mk-stabbers in the plane and in R3.

Quentin Skinner is an intellectual historian known for his pioneering work on early-modern European political thought. He was educated at Bedford School and Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge. Author of such works as The Foundations of Modern Political Thought (1978) and Visions of Politics (2002) he served as the Regius Professor of History at the University of Cambridge, and currently as t...

This study is carried out within the framework of requirements ensuring reliable operation Central Wastewater Treatment Plant Ulaanbaatar to increase treatment performance and mitigate adverse impacts current poor on nature ecology. The dynamic influent was studied in order find best-suited solution as a means improvement for WWTP. As an immediate fast-to-build solution, equalization tank pre-a...

In this paper, the combination of equalization and turbo decoding is studied. In the iterative decoding of a product code in block turbo coding system, the equalization process is performed within the iteration loop. The present study aims to investigate the decision feedback equalizer (DFE) incorporated in the iterative decoding. Simulation results show that the more severe the channel interfe...

16 Grey model (GM) and artificial neural network (ANN) were employed to predict suspended solids 17 (SSeff), chemical oxygen demand (CODeff) and pHeff in the effluent from conventional activated 18 process of an industrial wastewater treatment plant using simple online monitoring parameters (pH 19 in the equalization pond effluent; pH, temperature, and dissolved oxygen in the aeration tank). Th...
