Abstract: The objective of this study was to evaluate at the pilot scale the performance of a chemical leaching process for Pb, Cu, Sb, and Zn removal from a fine fraction (

Abstract: A soil decontaminating process has been studied at laboratory scale for the treatment of one soil polluted by both polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and lead (Pb). This process first includes attrition and sieving ...

Abstract: The present study investigates the electrocoagulation-electro-oxidation (EC-EO) process for the treatment of restaurant wastewater (RWW) loaded with organic and inorganic matter, oil, grease, and suspensions solids. The ...

Abstract: Incinerator fly ash from municipal solid waste is considered as a hazardous waste and can release toxic metals such as Pb and Cd into the environment. This research verifies the performance of a sequential, closed circuit ...

Abstract: Sewage sludge decontamination requires the removal of toxic metals and it can be performed by chemical leaching. The commercialization of such a decontamination process needs to consider the preservation of the sludge ...

Abstract: The electrooxidation of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in solution was investigated. Most of the PAHs compounds are toxic and hardly biodegradable, so that a chemical or physicochemical treatment is required. In ...

Abstract: Many problems are associated with pig manure production like high biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, nitrogen, and phosphorus contents. Manure produces may be used in land spreading for agricultural purposes. ...

Abstract: The goal of this research was to elaborate an effective and economical treatment system to eliminate nitrates from a large marine basin at the Aquarium du Québec. Several configurations of an autotrophic denitrification ...

Abstract: The objectives of this work were to evaluate the effects of different parameters (Pb concentration, solution pH, Ca/Mg/Na/K salt concentrations) on Pb uptake by cocoa shells and to study the mechanisms of Pb removal in ...

Abstract: The performance of a two-stage process that combines electrochemical leaching and electrodeposition of copper (Cu) for the decontamination of sewage sludge was studied in a single cell. The sewage sludge was treated in a ...
