A novel approach to reaction modeling for photocatalytic oxidation processes
(2014)
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are one of the major concerns for indoor air quality. A new
method for treating VOCs in the air is through an advance oxidation process (AOP) known as
photocatalytic oxidation (PCO). ...
Advanced ultrafiltration technology for lignocelluloses recovery and purification from thermomechanical pulp (TMP) mills process waters
(2017)
Process waters of thermomechanical pulp (TMP) mills contain a large valuable quantity of lignocellulosic materials that end up in the wastewater for biological treatment. In recent years, interest in utilizing such compounds ...
Thermophilic anaerobic membrane bioreactor for pulp and paper sludge treatment
(2018)
Pulp and paper mills generate a significant amount of organic waste (primary and secondary
sludge) that requires treatment and disposal. Currently, pulp and paper sludge (PPS) is either
dried for incineration or used for ...
Toxic and precious metals removal from wastewater using freeze concentration and electrodeionization
(2018)
Industrial wastewater may contain metals such as chromium (VI), nickel, cobalt and palladium. These metals are toxic to aquatic organisms and also have an adverse impact on human health and environment. Due to limited ...
Understanding aging impact on membrane structure and seasonal variation of natural organic matter in water from a membrane drinking water treatment plant
(2018)
An autopsy of hollow fiber (HF) PVDF membrane samples at different ages from a full-scale drinking water treatment was performed to investigate the membrane aging impact on membrane structures and properties. Scanning ...
Synthesis, characterization and photocatalytic application of TiO2 nanosized particles / by Dongliang Liao.
(2007, c200)
In this thesis, effects of surfactant composition and concentration on shape, size, zeta potential, and photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanosized particles are reported. Spherical, cubic, rod, ellipse and leaf-like shaped ...
Effects of process operating conditions on performance and membrane fouling in submerged anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs)
(2016)
Submerged anaerobic membrane bioreactor (SAnMBR) technology is becoming an attractive alternative for industrial wastewater treatment as it improves the biological process while allowing for the recovery of energy through ...
Assessment of hydrological drought in Northern Ontario using standardized streamflow index
(2018)
Momentum is gaining for the use of a Standardized Streamflow Index (SSI) for the assessment
of hydrological drought, which is an extension of the well-established and popularly used
meteorological drought ...
Comparison between thermophilic and mesophilic membrane-aerated biofilm reactors- a modeling study
(2018)
Membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR), as a novel biological waste treatment technology,
has received much attention in recent years, due to its advantages, as compared to conventional
biofilm. Considerable amount of ...
Carbon bio-sequestration by anhydrase enzyme extracted from spinach (Spinacia oleracea)
(2018)
Demand for sustainable and new technologies striving for sequestration of greenhouse gases, particularly carbon dioxide, is an area of considerable focus. In recent years there has been an increased interest in using an ...
