Adsorption of chromium from aqueous solution using treated oil palm fibre
(Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM), 2006-12-08)Chromium, being one of toxic heavy metals commonly found in various industrial wastewaters, is largely generated due to its widespread industrial applications; namely in steel and alloy making, electroplating, wood treatment, ... -
Anaerobic treatment of olive mill wastewater and piggery effluents fermented with Candida tropicalis
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-05)Olive mill wastewater (OMW) contains high concentrations of phenolic compounds that are inhibitory to many microorganisms making it difficult to treat biologically prior to discharge in waterways. The total mono-cyclic ... -
Biodegradation of azo dye Orange II using a granular activated carbon (GAC)-biofilm configured biological treatment systems
(Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM), 2006-12-08)Dyeing industry effluents constitute one of the most problematic wastewaters to be treated not only for their high chemical and biological oxygen demands, suspended solids and content in toxic compounds but also for color, ... -
Combination of adsorption and biodegradation processes for textile effluent treatment using a granular activated carbon-bioflm confgured packed column system
(The Research Centre for Eco-Environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 2008)The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using a granular activated carbon-biofilm configured packed column system in the decolorization of azo dye Acid Orange 7-containing wastewater. The Acid ... -
Influence of chromium and powdered activated carbon (PAC) on activated sludge microorganisms and sequencing batch reactor treatment process
(Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM), 2006-12-08)One of the possibilities of using activated carbon in wastewater treatment is the direct addition of powdered activated carbon (PAC) to an activated sludge system, thus combining adsorption and biodegradation. The aim of ...
