Performance Of Chlorella Vulgaris, Neochloris Oleoabundans, and mixed indigenous microalgae for treatment of primary effluent, secondary effluent and centrate
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
The objective of this study was to investigate and compare the growth rate and treatment efficiency of Chlorella vulgaris, Neochloris oleoabundans and mixed indigenous microalgae for the removal of organic carbon, nitrogen ...
Optimizing textile dye removal by activated carbon prepared from olive stones
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Activated carbon prepared from black and green olive stones were successfully used as
an adsorbing agent to remove methylene blue from water. Scanning electron microscopy
showed how the deep abundant cavities were occupied ...
Intergraded wastewater treatment and carbon bio-fixation from flue gases using Spirulina platensis and mixed algal culture
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2019 , Article)
In this work, Spirulina platensis (SP.PL) and mixed algal culture (M.X) were used as an economical treatment technology to solve dual environmental issues related to carbon dioxide (CO2) capturing and wastewater treatment. ...
Bioelectrochemical production of hydrogen in an innovative pressure-retarded osmosis/microbial electrolysis cell system: experiments and modeling
(
BioMed Central
, 2015 , Article)
Background
While microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) can simultaneously produce bioelectrochemical hydrogen and treat wastewater, they consume considerable energy to overcome the unfavorable thermodynamics, which is not ...
Mathematical modeling assisted investigation of forward osmosis as pretreatment for microbial desalination cells to achieve continuous water desalination and wastewater treatment
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Coupling forward osmosis (FO) with microbial desalination cells (MDCs) can lead to some synergistic benefits, i.e. simultaneous water recovery, desalination and removal of COD (chemical oxygen demand). Herein, an FO-MDC ...
Treatment of septic tank effluent using moving-bed biological reactor: kinetic and biofilm morphology
(
Center for Environmental and Energy Research and Studies
, 2016 , Article)
Septic tanks are very commonly used wastewater collection systems throughout the world, and especially in rural areas. In this study, the use of moving-bed biological reactors (MBBR) for the treatment of septic tank effluent ...
Enhancing desalination and wastewater treatment by coupling microbial desalination cells with forward osmosis
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
Both microbial desalination cells (MDCs) and forwards osmosis (FO) are emerging technologies for energy-efficient water/wastewater treatment. However, incomplete treatment/desalination in both technologies creates challenges ...
Effect of the organic load on salt removal efficiency of microbial desalination cell
(
Desalination Publications
, 2018 , Article)
Microbial desalination cell presents a novel concept for wastewater treatment, salt removal and bioelectricity generation in a single system. In this study, the effect of organic load on salt removal in air-cathode up-flow ...
Treatment and desalination of domestic wastewater for water reuse in a four-chamber microbial desalination cell
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Microbial desalination cells (MDCs) have been studied for contaminant removal from wastewater and salinity reduction in saline water. However, in an MDC wastewater treatment and desalination occurs in different streams, ...
Electrochemical oxidation of ammonia on nickel oxide nanoparticles
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
NiO and NiOTiO2 nano-catalysts were synthetized using solution combustion synthesis (SCS) method and tested toward ammonia oxidation in synthetic and real wastewater. As-synthesized NiO nano-catalyst showed a tightly ...
