Conversion of Waste Materials into Heterogeneous Oxidation Catalysts for Treatment of Chlorinated Organics
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Waste disposal is a challenging environmental concern worldwide. Carbon-rich waste materials can be transformed into adsorbent and/or catalyst support to reduce treatment costs and promote waste recycling. In the present ...
Proteins Recovery from Hydrothermally Treated, Diluted, and Centrifuged Sewage Sludge Samples
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Direct application of sewage sludge (SS) as a fertilizer is a major concern owing to the presence of pathogens and organic pollutants. Hydrothermal pretreatment of the sludge is considered an effective method for the ...
Degradation of Organic Pollutants by Wet Air Oxidation Using Nonnoble Metal-Based Catalysts
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Phenol is a major organic pollutant found in wastewater streams generating from several industries. The presence of excess phenol makes the wastewater unsuitable for conventional biological treatment. The present study was ...
Application of Fuzzy Logic to Estimate Flow of Methane for Energy Generation at a Sanitary Landfill
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes the use of a multicriteria assessment technique to evaluate the methane flow during gas extraction from a sanitary landfill. A number of parameters determine the gas generation and the feasibility for ...
