How to Properly Dispose of Used Engine Oil --Use Decanter Centrifuge to Refine Used Engine Oil
Motor oil, the lubricant of the engine, can play the role of lubrication, cleaning, cooling, sealing, wear reduction, rust prevention, and corrosion prevention for the engine. After a long period of use, motor oil will produce deposits, sludge and varnish, which will lead to deterioration. These substances are deposited on the surface of friction parts, lube orifices and filters, which can also ...

Toxicity Testing of Solidified Waste Leachates with Microbiotests
Abstract : Solidification is a process for treating contaminated wastes that reduces or entirely prevents the release of hazardous waste compounds into the environment. This process aims to make materials either not harmful nor toxic at all or at least less hazardous than the raw waste. The most widely used basic materials for solidification are cement, lime, fly ash, and blast-furnace slag. No ...

4 Benefits of Electrocoagulation for Heavy Metal Wastewater Treatment
There is much debate in academia, as to what elements should be considered “heavy metals”. Some criteria depend on density, some on atomic number, and some on chemical behavior. In the water treatment industry, we tend to concern ourselves with the more common and more toxic variety. Such heavy metals may include mercury, cadmium, lead, chromium, and copper. Arsenic is also ...

Wetlands act as valuable urban water treatment
As cities and urban landscapes expand across the globe, water resource management continues to pose a huge challenge. Natural wetlands are often built over as cities grow, but a recent strategy of green infrastructure applies the opposite principle – wetlands are protected and constructed as part of city planning. Wetlands, whether natural or man-made, act as large-scale storage and ...

Black-odor water analysis and heavy metal distribution of Yitong River in Northeast China
The black-odor mechanism of Yitong River was analyzed based on survey and monitoring results. We found that organic matter is the main pollution source of Yitong River and its tributaries. A black-odor evaluation model that can describe the pollution of the Yitong River water system was developed, and this model has the parameters I = 0.21 [CODCr] + 0.18 [DO] – 0.36[NH3-N] + 0.91. The model ...

Life Among The Heavy Metals
Authors in scientific and applied works interpret the meaning of the concept "heavy metals" in different ways. Today, they include more than 40 chemical elements with an atomic mass of more than 50 atomic units. An important role in the determination of heavy metals is played by the following conditions: their high toxicity in relatively low concentrations, and the ability to bioaccumulation. ...

Multiresistant opportunistic pathogenic bacteria isolated from polluted rivers and first detection of nontuberculous mycobacteria in the Algerian aquatic environment
Opportunistic infections constitute a major challenge for modern medicine mainly because the involved bacteria are usually multiresistant to antibiotics. Most of these bacteria possess remarkable ability to adapt to various ecosystems, including those exposed to anthropogenic activities. This study isolated and identified 21 multiresistant opportunistic bacteria from two polluted rivers, ...
