In January 2010, AdEdge Water Technologies, LLC was contacted by Aqua Utilities Florida to provide a hydrogen sulfide removal system for the Lake Josephine Community located in Highlands County, Florida. The existing water system consisted of two wells feeding into a centralized distribution system with a maximum capacity of 230 gpm being consumed by a population of 1,250 persons. The raw water ...

The presence and fate of hydrogen sulfide in wastewater systems were studied in two stretches of an intercepting sewer system located in a coastal village, in Portugal. A range of hydraulic parameters were obtained and liquid and gas phase measurements were carried out, both continuously and through intensive sampling campaigns. Upstream, where flow rates were relatively low, dissolved sulfide ...

Bottom hypoxia and consequential hydrogen sulfide (H2S) release from sediment in eutrophic estuaries is a major global environmental issue. We investigated dissolved oxygen, pH and H2S concentration profiles with microsensors and by sectioning sediment cores followed by colorimetric analysis. The results of these analyses were then compared with the physicochemical properties of the ...

The dunes sagebrush lizard (Sceloporus arenicolus) is a habitat specialist of conservation concern limited to shin oak sand dune systems of New Mexico and Texas. Because much of the dunes sagebrush lizard's habitat occurs in areas of high oil and gas production, there may be direct and indirect effects of these activities. We used the congeneric Western fence lizard (Sceloporus occidentalis) ...

In the Iberian Pyrite Belt (IPB), southwest Spain, a prolonged and intense mining activity of more than 4,500 years has resulted in almost a hundred mines scattered through the region. After years of inactivity, these mines are still causing high levels of hydrochemical degradation in the fluvial network. This situation represents a unique scenario in the world, taking into consideration its ...

This paper evaluates the biological regeneration of ferric Fe3+ solution during desulphurisation of gaseous streams. Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is absorbed into aqueous ferric sulphate solution and oxidised to elemental sulphur, while ferric ions Fe3+ are reduced to ferrous ions Fe2+. During the industrial regeneration of Fe3+, ...

The risk of environmentally assisted cracking in downhole components is high due to sour conditions, i.e. the presence of hydrogen sulphide. Therefore a range of materials possessing excellent corrosion resistance are employed. However, corrosion is not only downhole related but is also a common problem on the platform deck itself due to airborne salts from ocean spray. For this reason the ...

Correlations between sulfide generation and seasonal influent wastewater characteristics were identified based on a long-term monitoring program in summer and winter at a water reclamation plant. During summer, the emission rates of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from the liquid treatment processes increased substantially compared to those during winter due to the increased wastewater temperature. The ...

The colloidal stability of carbon nanomaterials is a key factor controlling their fate and bioavailability in natural aquatic systems. We reported herein that graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles could be destabilized in reducing aqueous solutions containing a low concentration (0.5 mM) of sulfide, a naturally occurring reductant. Spectroscopic characterization using combined X‐ray photoelectron, ...

Abstract Losses of metal are often traced to incorrect pH/ORP signals in floatation, leaching, extraction, electrolysis, and precipitation processes, aggravated by pressure changes. IC Controls a Canadian mining sensor manufacturer developed a new superior pH/ORP sensor that stops metal losses, reduces environmental footprint and contributes to sustainability. The cause of incorrect pH/ORP ...

Graphene is evidently flourishing in the nanotechnology industry, and it is now taking its steps towards its potency in medical application. Recently, a research team at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) has just developed the world’s smallest battery.  Building a battery with a size of just that of a grain of rice is really a big deal, something that could get a major break ...

Echem sensors are able to read a specific gas even when it is mixed in a background of other gases. Echem sensors are typically used to read very low PPM concentrations of toxic gases. The Echem sensor consists of a small cell holding an electrolytic solution. This solution needs a specific gas in order to produce an electrical signal. When the specific gas passes through a permeable membrane and ...

In this paper we present a new ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopic method for the simultaneous and reagentless determination of bromide, bicarbonate, nitrate and sulphide ions in artificial seawater solutions, applicable to the monitoring of the marine environment. We collected the UV spectra of artificial seawater samples with salinity between 8 and 45 psu, having known concentrations of these ...

Experimental results for applying Fenton oxidation as a pre–treatment method for spent caustic are presented. A combination of dilution and Fenton's reaction is proposed as a method for reduction of total COD and total phenols in spent caustics. This approach was used to obtain a decrease in total phenols from 5,200 mg/L to less than 130 mg/L. The greatest removal occurred within a pH range of ...

Speciation is held to be a key factor in controlling the ecotoxicity of metals in solution. Using the UN Transformation/Dissolution Protocol (T/DP) for Metals and Sparingly Soluble Metal Compounds, we have examined the T/D characteristics in terms of the concentrations of total dissolved Sb at pH 6 and 8.5 in 1, 10 and 100 mg/L loadings over seven days as well as the concentrations of Sb(III) and ...
