Polishing Treatment of Molasses Wastewater with Iron Salts: the Role of Counter-ions
Nov 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT: The effect of counter-ions on the coagulation of biologically treated molasses wastewater using iron-based coagulants was investigated. Parameters such as removals of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and color, and residual turbidity, were measured to evaluate coagulation performance ....
Rapid Fractionation of Natural Organic Matter in Water Using a Novel Solid-Phase Extraction Technique
Nov 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT: This paper introduces a novel natural organic matter (NOM) fractionation technique using solid-phase extraction cartridges. The new technique requires only 6 hours of fractionation time, which is much faster than traditional fractionation techniques (24 hours). It uses three Bond Elute ...
Modeling the Performance of Hazardous Wastes Removal in Bioaugmented Activated Sludge Processes
Nov 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT: An enricher-reactor process in which acclimated biomass is grown in an offline reactor on high concentrations of enrichment substrates was used to bioaugment a conventional activated sludge process to a toxic compound, 1-amino naphthalene. Various levels of bioaugmentation, ranging ...
The Effect of Nitrate and Sulfate on Mediator-Less Microbial Fuel Cells with High Internal Resistance
Nov 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT: Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) simultaneously provide waste treatment while capturing energy in the form of electricity. Although these devices are being used in engineered and natural environments where nitrate or sulfate may inhibit power production, the effects of these electron ...
Biodegradation of Malachite Green by Brevibacillus laterosporus MTCC 2298
Nov 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT: Brevibacillus laterosporus MTCC 2298 was screened for the decolorization of eight triphenylmethane dyes. Decolorization of malachite green was found to be fastest (87% within 3 hours, at the concentration 0.1 g/L) among the screened dyes. Various triphenylmethane dyes showed ...
