Background & Aims of the Study: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a colorless and highly toxic, easily dissolved in water, flammable and explosive gas. Hydrogen sulfide gas is the main cause of odor emissions from municipal sewage plants. One method for removal of hydrogen sulfide gas is the use of biological systems, biofilter. The aim of this study was to survey removal hydrogen sulfide provide in se...

background; the aim of this study is to compare uv, ferrate (vi) and uv/ferrate (vi) methods for removal of hydrogen sulfide and chemical oxygen demand (cod) from municipal wastewater under a continuous condition. methods; the experiment was divided into three parts: 1) pollutants removal by using ferrate (vi) alone; 2) pollutants removal using uv alone; 3) pollutants removal using a combinatio...

The toxicity and corrosion potential of hydrogen sulfide in raw biogas underlines the need for biogas purification. Several techniques available for removal of hydrogen sulfide from biogas are out of the reach for common end users due to lack of knowledge, higher running costs, and insufficient operational skills. The present experimental study aims to propagate hydrogen sulfide removal techniq...

Iron in groundwater is one of the problems that render the water unsuitable for drinking. The concentration above 0.3 mg/L is common in groundwater. The conventional method of removal is by precipitation under oxic condition. In this study, iron removal under anaerobic conditions was examined by batch experiment as a main purpose. The process involved by purging of groundwater samples with H2S ...

(Received: January 26, 2012; Accepted: March 25, 2012) Abstract: Removal of hydrogen sulfide from mixed gas was successfully carried out in a batch reactor. The isolated microorganism from Ramsar hot spring was cultured and adapted in an environment with hydrogen sulfide. At 35°C, maximum cell dry weight was 0.43 g/l. For the hydrogen sulfide removal, effect of temperature in the range of 25 to...

electroplating industry wastewater (eiw) characterized by high chemical oxygen demand (cod) is a big source of water and air contamination with heavy metals. the formation of cyanide complex with heavy metals is responsible for its elevated cod. the concentration of heavy metals in eiw can be removed by the use of different precipitating agents (sulfide and hydroxide). but the major bottleneck ...
