The objective of this study was to investigate the removal of reactive orange 16 (RO16) dye from synthetic wastewater by the adsorption on cocoa (Theobrama cacao) shell activated carbon (CSAC).
Contamination of aquatic resources by a variety of heavy metals is of growing concern because of health risk posed by the exposure to flora and fauna as well as human being. The vast majority of toxic metals are the waste products/by products of industrial and metallurgical processes. Other possible sources include the effluent from electroplating, storage battery manufacturing industries, tanneries, municipal sludges, extractive metallurgy processes, and metal finishing operations contains high amount of dissolved metals and the concentration reaches to a significant range.
A spiral wound membrane is a unique configuration that provides excellent structural integrity. The design is completely rigid, and no stress is placed on the membrane surface.

Thermax is scouting overseas to buy a company worth up to $100 million in industrial waste water treatment space, said Managing Director MS Unnikrishnan. "Our target market for water treatment projects in India is worth . 4,000-4,500 crore. Within this, the industrial waste water market would be worth around . 1,500 crore.
Workers at a quake-hit nuclear plant in Japan on Tuesday began removing highly radioactive water from a reactor turbine building, a key step towards restoring cooling systems, the government said.
The magnitude 9 earthquake and tsunami that hit the northeast coast of Japan on March 11 knocked out power systems at the Fukushima Daiichi plant, causing cooling systems to fail and triggering a seri
Increase in the global greenhouse gases emission drastically increases the hot weather. Due to mismanagement of waste and natural resources, we have already experienced several warning from global warming and climate change.
Global Water Engineering (GWE) has partnered with Chokyuenyong Industrial in Thailand to cut effluent COD pollution levels at its cassava production plant by more than 95% while extracting gas from its wastewater to power its boilers and generate electricity for its own use and to sell back to the provincial grid.
The treatment techniques used to treating wastewater are based on the knowledge and design application of the treatment process required. This varies depending on the kind of wastewater being treated.
Orient Paper Mills, Amlai is an old integrated pulp and paper mill. There is a continuous effort to reduce water consumption per ton of paper produced. The plant is a pioneer in effectively using the treated effluent for its own plantation through HRTS and do not discharge any coloured effluent in the river.
Total water and environment management in a paper mill is the need of the hour to ensure that the dual needs of lower water consumption as well as eliminating waste discharge are met. This is made possible by having an holistic approach to the problem rather than looking at end of pipe solutions like recycling the total waste water produced etc.
