Attached growth processes for wastewater treatment have significantly been improved during recent years. Their application can be extended to sustainable municipal in remote locations and developing countries the purpose of organic matter (biochemical oxygen demand, BOD) removal pathogenic decontamination. The aim this study is assess selected packing media biological trickling filters (BTFs) develop a simplified model describing capacity BOD BTFs. In work, BTFs with four different viz.,...
Novel bio-magnetic membrane capsules (BMMCs) were prepared by a simple two-step titration-gel cross-linking method using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and sodium alginate (SA) matrix to control the disintegration of phytogenic magnetic nanoparticles (PMNPs) in an aqueous environment, their performance was investigated for adsorbing cationic malachite green (MG) dye from water. The BMMCs characterized FTIR, powder XRD, SEM, EDX, XPS, VSM TGA techniques. findings revealed that hysteresis loops had...
Resilience is a multi-faceted concept that traces its evolution based on the field of discipline wherein it was used. Various researchers have defined term throughout years according to their own expertise. This has impacted development and how used in each specific discipline. One most recent important use disaster paradigm. paper definition resilience narrows down realm, eventually focusing small islands as socio-ecological system. It also discusses relationship with vulnerability...
Abstract Increase in anthropogenic activities proliferated the consumption of resources such as phosphorus; and increase adverse environmental impacts especially eutrophication on water lakes. Nutrient recovery from domestic wastewaters to produce a fertiliser has been explored address these challenges context sustainable circular nutrient economy. Life cycle assessment (LCA) was performed holistically assess integrating system wastewater resource management using Laguna de Bay, Philippines...
In this work, the removal of Methylene Blue dye from synthetic textile effluent has been investigated using a hybrid system (photocatalysis and nanofiltration). The Commercial ZnO powder was used as catalyst in photocatalytic operation. Response surface methodology (RSM) employed to optimize various operating parameters such pH, loading time duration optimization enhanced decolorization efficiencies. results were compared contrasted with individual well combined systems at optimized...
