Cost-effective removal of COD in the pre-treatment of wastewater from the paper industry
(IWA Publishing, 2020-04)
The present paper reveals results of research for cost-effective removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) contained in industrial paper mill effluent. Not only process efficiency but also wastewater treatment costs are ...
Kinetic studies on the anaerobic degradation of soluble and particulate matter in potato wastewater
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2012-05)
The anaerobic degradation of particulate-containing potato processing wastewater using a mixed culture from an industrial anaerobic wastewater treatment plant as inoculum was characterised and modelled. Anaerobic digestion ...
Biodegradation of textile wastewater: Enhancement of biodegradability via the addition of co-substrates followed by phytotoxicity analysis of the effluent
(IWA Publishing, 2018-05-31)
This work reports on the biodegradation of textile wastewater by three alternative microbial treatments. A bacterial consortium, isolated from a dyeing factory, showed significant efficacy in decolourizing wastewater (77.6 ...
Growth kinetics of the filamentous microorganism Sphaerotilus natans in a model system of a food industry wastewater
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2000-12)
Bulking by Sphaerotilus natans has been attributed to several factors such as low dissolved oxygen in the aeration basin, wastes with high C:N ratios and phosphorus limitation; however, the occurrence of bulking has been ...
Impact of Urea and Ammoniacal Nitrogen Wastewaters on Soil: Field Study in a Fertilizer Industry (Bahía Blanca, Argentina)
(Springer, 2021-09)
Nitrogen compounds in industrial effluents are considered a serious threat to the environment. The aim of this work is to identify the effect produced by nitrogen-rich wastewater on alkaline soils from industrial land. Two ...
Treatment of automotive industry oily wastewater by electrocoagulation: statistical optimization of the operational parameters.
(IWA PUBLISHING, 2009-11-01)
An electrocoagulation process was used for the treatment of oily wastewater generated from an automotive industry in Medellin (Colombia). An electrochemical cell consisting of four parallel electrodes (Fe and Al) in bipolar ...
