Pilot-scale evaluation of forward osmosis membranes for volume reduction of industrial wastewater
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
Water treatment is a key aspect for the sustainable management of oil & gas operations. Osmotic concentration (OC) is an advanced water treatment process, adapted from forward osmosis (FO), that does not require water ...
Industrial wastewater volume reduction through osmotic concentration: Membrane module selection and process modeling
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Osmotic concentration (OC), a form of forward osmosis (FO) but without draw solution recovery, can be applied for reducing wastewater disposal volumes in the oil & gas industry. Within this industry, wastewater is often ...
Data on the fabrication of hybrid calix [4]arene-modified natural bentonite clay for efficient selective removal of toxic metals from wastewater at room temperature
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2021 , Other)
Fresh water resources on the earth are less than 0.2%; meanwhile, around 80% of the freshwater is consumed daily in agriculture, industries, and household activities [1–2]. There is an essential need to develop efficient ...
Chromium removal from tannery wastewater by electrocoagulation: Optimization and sludge characterization
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
The treatment of tannery effluent is of great interest as it contains a complexmixture ofpollutants, primarily chromium. The disposal of this wastewater can have adverse effects on the environment and aquatic life, which ...
Magnetic nanoparticles draw solution for forward osmosis: Current status and future challenges in wastewater treatment
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Forward osmosis is considered as the least energy intensive membrane process since it operates based on the osmotic pressure gradient. However, it is still considered as immature technology mainly due to the elevated cost ...
Recent advances on humic acid removal from wastewater using adsorption process
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article Review)
Humic acid (HA) is a component of natural organic matter (NOM) with a high molecular weight and high complexity. The presence of humic acid in water raises serious concerns due to its toxicity and ability to form carcinogenic ...
Poly (amido amine) dendrimer based membranes for wastewater treatment - A critical review
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article Review)
Membrane based wastewater treatment technologies in which polymeric membranes are most commonly used have been extensively applied in water/wastewater treatment to help address the issue of water shortage through ...
Investigating the potential of using solid waste generated from stone cutting factories for phenol removal from wastewater: A study of adsorption kinetics and isotherms
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Remarkably toxic, phenol requires efficient elimination from water. This study investigates the utilization of solid waste generated by stone-cutting factories for extracting phenol from wastewater. The solid waste underwent ...
Sludge-derived biochars: A review on the influence of synthesis conditions on pollutants removal efficiency from wastewaters
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Pyrolysis is a thermochemical process that permits the conversion of biomasses into energy (bio-oil and biogas) and a solid residue called biochar. The generation of biochar from lignocellulosic materials has been, for ...
