Aerobic degradation of tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide (TMAH) from effluents of semiconductor industries: kinetic studies of laboratory and pilot experiments
(Corresponding) Innocenzi V., De Michelis I., Ippolito N., Mazziotti Di Celso G., Prisciandaro M., Vegliò F.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Aerobic degradation of effluents contains tetramethylammonium hydroxide molecules (TMAH), coming from an electronic industry, were studied at laboratory and pilot scale. At the first, the preliminary experiments were conducted using a lab scale reactor inoculated with activated sludge coming from...Read more

Hybrid zero liquid discharge (ZLD) membrane/chemical process for the treatment of oil sands produced water
Mohammadtabar F., (Corresponding) Khorshidi B., Hayatbakhsh A., (Corresponding) Sadrzadeh M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
In this study, the applicability of a hybrid chemical/membrane process for the treatment of the boiler blow-down (BBD) water from steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) operation was explored. For the chemical pre-treatment prior to the membrane filtration, another waste stream of SAGD, i.e., ion...Read more

Effect of current density value and current application period on the wastewater treatment performance of Electrochemically Enhanced Self-Forming Dynamic Membrane Bioreactors (e-SFDMBRs)
(Corresponding) Almalvez J., Morales-Corpuz M., Borea L., Castrogiovanni F., Napodano P., Belgiorno V., Naddeo V., Ballesteros F.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The use of membrane reactor in wastewater treatment gained interest for the past years due to its high-quality effluent. However, expensive membranes and high operational costs due to membrane fouling limit the wide application of this process. Research on fouling control by combining membrane use...Read more
Treatment and Reuse of Industrial Wastewater Using Reverse Osmosis System
(Corresponding) Ahmadzadeh-Kaleybar F., Emamifar M., Bagheri M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
From a few years ago, using reverse osmosis in water refinery and desalination, in order to provide clean water for necessary requirements has been considered as a common method. In the current study, the reverse osmosis, in the water refinery process of Miyaneh steel factory (northwest of Iran)...Read more
Treatment of Leachate Wastewater with Fenton Process
(Corresponding) Çokay E., Eker S.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Leachate wastewater produced from landfill areas contains high organic contents and heavy metals. Because of high concentration of organic materials and heavy metals, it can cause toxic effects on the environment. In addition, there is a possibility that leachate can reach to surface and ground...Read more
One-stage and multistage anoxic/oxic systems based on continuous plug-flow anammox process for mature landfill leachate treatment
Ren S., (Corresponding) Peng Y.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
As a promising biotechnology, the anammox process has been increasingly investigated for landfill leachate treatment. However, its application has been limited by the long generation time of anammox bacteria (AnAOB) and insufficient nitrite supply in actual projects. To overcome these obstacles,...Read more
Removal of copper (II) from aqueous solution using biopolymer-based materials: Theoretical and statistical physics investigation for wastewater treatment
ELBOUGHDIRI N., FERKOUS H., ROUIBAH K., DELIM A., BOUBLIA A., ALGETHAMI J., ALQAHTANI M., JEON B., (Corresponding) Yadav Y., BENGUERBA Y.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Pollution from heavy metals is increasingly recognized as a major threat to Earth's ecosystem. Due to the potential economic and ecological consequences, there is an urgent need to develop waste management systems and strategies for disposing of copper ions (Cu2+) from the industrial sector...Read more
