Review ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleChemical Coagulation/Flocculation Processes for Removal of Phenolic Compounds from Olive Mill Wastewater: A Comprehensive ReviewMounia Achak, Fatima Elayadi, Wafaa BoumyaOlive oil extraction processes generate three phases: Olive oil, solid residue (pomace) and aqueous liquor Olive Mill Wastewater (OMW). OMW causes serious environmental deteriorations such as coloring of natural waters, alteration of soil quality, phytotoxicity and odor nuisance. The direct discharge of this effluent into the soil bring various negative effects on the environment, due to its high load of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 30 Mar 2019 · 10,494 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleOverview of Membrane Processes for the Recovery of Polyphenols from Olive Mill WastewaterOmpe Aime Mudimu, Martin Peters, Florian Brauner, Gerd BraunProblem statement: Olive Mill Wastewater (OMW) is an ambivalent by-product of the olive oil production, which appears in huge amounts every year after the olive-harvest in the production countries, mainly in the Mediterranean region. OMW is characterized by a high organic load and i.a. contains considerable amounts of phytotoxical polyphenols, which cause important environmental problems. Approach: Due to their antioxidant … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 27 Mar 2012 · 8,544 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleReducing the Environmental Impact of Olive Mill WastewaterAwni Khatib, Fathi Aqra, Nader Yaghi et al.Problem Statement: A research was needed to monitor the environmental impact of olive mill wastewater (OMW): production and relative production of olive mill waste. This was achieved by collecting data from 92 local olive mills in order to study the olive production yield, water consumption in olive washing and in oil recovery, wastewater generation relative to olive processed and oil … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 8,043 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOlive Wastewaters' Impact on Oued Boufekrane in Meknes-TafilaletMajdouline Larif, Abdelmajid Soulaymani, Mohammed Hnach, Azzedine ElmidaouiProblem statement: Water quality of river Boufekrane is subject to heavy pollution exerted by population growth and industrial activity, including the OMW from the olive industry in which the presence of polyphenols and toxic effect dominant character may generate a higher organic pollution. Approach: Our objective is to "study the impact of OMW by analyzing the physicochemical parameters on seven … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Apr 2012 · 7,514 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEnhancement of Biogas Production Potential for Anaerobic Co-digestion of Wastewater using Decanter CakeThaniya Kaosol, Narumol SohgrathokThe wastewater from agro-industry treated with the biological treatment cannot produce the biogas because of its low COD level and its low organic content. In this research, the co-digestion with decanter cake will improve the biogas yield and biogas production of wastewater. The effect of three parameters (i.e., type of wastewater, mixing and mesophilic temperature) will be evaluated in batch … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2013 · 7,717 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCo-Digestion of Palm Oil Mill Effluent and Refined Glycerin Wash Water for Chemical Oxygen Demand Removal and Methane ProductionA. Sulaiman, M. R. Zakaria, M. A. Hassan et al.Problem statement: Refined Glycerin Wash Water (RGWW) from the oleochemical industry contains high Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and requires proper treatment before disposal. Unfortunately the wash water also contains high concentration of sodium chloride (NaCl) that could cause inhibition to the normal biological treatment process. However, there is feasibility of co-digesting the RGWW and Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) for … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,936 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAnaerobic Digestion of Pulping Wastewater Using Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) Reactor at Mesophilic ConditionRanda M. Osman, M. HamadThe waste considered for this study was the effluent of the pulping process produced during the manufacture of pulp and paper in the Rakta integrated pulp and paper mill in Alexandria. The pulping process in Rakta mill is conducted under pressure of 7-8 bar, 165°C using 10% NaOH based on straw weight for 2 h. The spent liquor after alkali … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 11 Aug 2015 · 6,927 accessesView PDF Cite
