Predicting the propagation of concentration and saturation fronts in fixed-bed filters
(IWA Publishing, 2017-07-05)The phenomenon of adsorption is widely exploited across a range of industries to remove contaminants from gases and liquids. Much recent research has focused on identifying low-cost adsorbents which have the potential to ... -
Properties of electrode-attached biofilms for application to microbial fuel cells
(2015-03-26)Energy, in any form, plays the most important role in the modern world. We have been dependent on conventional energy sources such as coal and petroleum product for quite a long time. Therefore, there is an alarming need ... -
The use of laboratory sand, soil and crushed-glass filter columns for polishing domestic-strength synthetic wastewater that has undergone secondary treatment
(Taylor & Francis, 2010)The aim of this study was to examine the performance of intermittently loaded, 150 mm-diameter stratified filter columns of 2 depths (0.65 and 0.375 m) comprising different media - sand, crushed glass and soil - in polishing ...
