Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProspects of Using Wastewater as a Resource-Nutrient Recovery and Energy GenerationMusfique Ahmed, Chowdhury Kamrul Hasan, Hafizur Rahman et al.It is well understood that both untreated and partially treated wastewater comprise substantial amount of resources, which can be recovered and utilized for different purposes. Since Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) is energy intensive and expensive, substantiating the WWTPs with Resource Recover Technologies (RRTs) will not only save a considerable amount of energy but also make the environment cleaner and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2015 · 8,183 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBIOTRANSFORMATION OF TEXTILE DYES: A BIOREMEDIAL ASPECT OF MARINE ENVIRONMENTR. S. Shertate, Prakash ThoratPresence of huge amount of salts in the wastewater of textile dyeing industry is one of the major limiting factors in the development of an effective biotreatment system for the removal of dyes from textile effluents. Large number of textile industries are located on the coastal areas due to ease of transport to the various places in world and help … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 12 Nov 2014 · 7,383 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoft Path Water Management in Dry and arid Regions of the Arabian Peninsula by Rainwater HarvestingM. T. Amin, A. A. Alazba, U. ManzoorSaudi Arabia has limited renewable water resources and the groundwater is the main source of water in Saudi Arabia which. With an arid climate, it receives about 50-100 mm/year of rainfall in Central, Eastern and Northern regions. There are few studies investigating the future regional climate change and some has predicted a decrease in precipitation but with extreme climate events … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Apr 2013 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Supercritical Fluid Extraction and BioprocessingOwen Catchpole, Stephen Tallon, Peter Dyer et al.Supercritical fluids are increasingly being used and promoted at a laboratory and pilot scale to produce high value, natural bioactives from biologically based raw materials. Supercritical CO2 is overwhelmingly the solvent of choice for these operations, but is largely limited to the processing of dry raw materials and the extraction of low polarity, low molecular weight compounds. The use of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Dec 2012 · 9,488 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFull Scale Tests of Short-Term Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Bottom Ash Weathering Before Landfill DisposalFranco Marchese, Giuseppe GenonProblem statement: Natural weathering is the most economic method of treatment in order to reduce the release of heavy metals present in the residue. Approach: The aim of the study was to optimize the minimum weathering times that were useful to reduce the lead release to within the Italian limits for landfill disposal. The mechanism of short-term weathering of MSWI … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,153 accessesView PDFCite
