Structural conditions in German water supply
Against the background of price controls for drinking water supply utilities in Germany, the comparability of utilities with regard to their specific structural conditions comes into focus. Relevant structural conditions were identified for the two main technical processes, namely water production (WP) and treatment, storage and distribution (TSD). A defined clustering process for comparable ...

Case Study: Arjo Wiggins Factory Site, North Hykeham
In January 2000, Blackwell were appointed as the main contractor for the remediation of an industrial site in Lincolnshire. The site was formerly used in the manufacture of thermal papers, had become contaminated with metalliferous mercy, zinc and asbestos. Site remediation was primarily driven by high ground water vulnerability. Following a comprehensive option study, volume reduction by Soils ...

Valuable product production from wood mill effluents
Fibreboard production is one of the most important industrial activities in Galicia (Spain). Great amounts of wastewater are generated, with properties depending on the type of wood, treatment process, final product and water reusing, among others. These effluents are characterized by a high chemical oxygen demand (COD), low pH and nutrients limitation. Aerobic and anaerobic processes have been ...

Estimation of water quality by UV/Vis spectrometry in the framework of treated wastewater reuse
The aim of this study is to investigate the potential of ultraviolet/visible (UV/Vis) spectrometry as a complementary method for routine monitoring of reclaimed water production. Robustness of the models and compliance of their sensitivity with current quality limits are investigated. The following indicators are studied: total suspended solids (TSS), turbidity, chemical oxygen demand (COD) ...

Bioplastic production using wood mill effluents as feedstock
Fibreboard production is one of the most important industrial activities in Galicia (Spain). Great amounts of wastewater are generated, with properties depending on the type of wood, treatment process, final product and water reusing, among others. These effluents are characterized by a high chemical oxygen demand, low pH and nutrients limitation. Although anaerobic digestion is one of the most ...

Granular activated carbon for removal of organic matter and turbidity from secondary wastewater
A range of commercial granular activated carbon (GAC) media have been assessed as pretreatment technologies for a downstream microfiltration (MF) process. Media were assessed on the basis of reduction in both organic matter and turbidity, since these are known to cause fouling in MF membranes. Isotherm adsorption analysis through jar testing with supplementary column trials revealed a wide ...

Reverse Osmosis and Water Purification
From water reuse to desalination, reverse osmosis plays a key role in supplying fresh water where it’s needed Consumers may already know reverse osmosis (RO) from popular under-sink home water treatment systems, but RO is used in many applications and at many scales. Reverse osmosis can purify unusable water to the point where it’s virtually free of health risks and esthetic ...

Impact of ambient air temperature and injection timing on reduction of engine out emissions of DI diesel engine operating under the influence of oxygen enriched hydrogen gas
The present experimental work is a study of the impact of ambient air temperature and the injection timing of diesel fuel on reduction of engine–out emissions of DI diesel engine, operating under the influence of oxygen enriched hydrogen gas. Here the oxygen enriched hydrogen gas was produced by the process of water electrolysis. The produced gas was aspirated into the combustion process of ...

Water treatment plant sludge disposal into stabilization ponds
Researchers have paid particular attention to the disposal of sludge produced in water treatment plants (WTPs) into wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) for further processing, mainly because it is considered an attractive alternative for the treatment of waste generated in water production processes. This study evaluated the effects of flow equalization and disposal of sludge, from a ...

An electrostatic shielding-based coupled electrodialysis/electrodeionization process for removal of cobalt ions from aqueous solutions
Electrode graphite powder beds were interposed between anode and cathode as intermediate electrodes inside an electrolytic setup. Due to electrostatic shielding they eliminate the applied electric field and therefore stop the electromigration of ions within their mass. It was found that the intermediate electrodes can act as ionic current sinks—ion concentrating compartments and therefore cause a ...
