Asset Management in the Water Industry - the Valve Actuator`s Perspective
The water and effluent treatment industries have recognised the benefits of effective asset management resulting from the gathering and analysis of accurate and relevant data from out in the plant. The data identifies the condition of the equipment and gives the operator a real-time view of the plant. Monitoring the data over time enables the operator to avoid unplanned interruptions and plan ...

Airport deicing effluent treatment and regulatory guidelines
Airport and airplane deicing is employed with the use of brines, salts, alcohols or glycols to remove and prevent or delay the formation of snow and ice. In the United States (US), the Federal Aviation Administration requires airlines that operate during icy conditions to perform deicing and anti-icing of aircraft and airfield pavement (USEPA 2011a). These deicing operations use large amounts ...

Prediction of flux decline during membrane filtration of leather plant effluent
A membrane-based scheme has been proposed for the treatment of leather plant effluent. The effluent coming out from the various steps of leather plant are combined and Nanofiltration (NF) and Reverse Osmosis (RO) are adopted. Performances of two NF membranes are evaluated. Experiments are conducted using an unstirred batch cell. It is observed that a combined operation of NF using 400 MWCO ...

Studies on adsorption and decolourisation of reactive dye on TiO2 surface
Adsorption is a well accepted process for dye-house effluent treatment, but disposal or regeneration of spent adsorbent is the major drawback. Regeneration and reuse of adsorbent can reduce the cost of sludge disposal, consequently the water treatment cost. Dye used for this study is Reactive Brown 18 and TiO2 was used as adsorbent, which can be regenerated efficiently using UV illumination. ...

A hybrid flotation: microfiltration cell for effluent treatment
The investigated hybrid cell combines the advantages of both flotation and membrane filtration, while overcoming their limitations and having as outcome clean water from wastewater. The specific objective of the current paper was to apply the process for the efficient separation of effluents containing toxic metals (zinc cations and chromate anions). The main examined parameters were the sorbent ...

Numerical study of fluid flow across multiple Cosmo ball
The Cosmo ball mainly has its application as a filter media in an effluent treatment system. A very large surface area could be obtained for microbial attachment as the Cosmo ball has a design such that a surface for fluid interaction with the maximum microbial. This will greatly improve the degradation of organic matter in wastewater through the microbial activities. Cosmo ball is a media used ...
