Biosorption of zinc from industrial wastewater using bacteria resistance
In this study in order to determine and investigate the effect of zinc concentration on bacteria resistance threshold, two samples of industrial wastewater(1 and 2) were collected. The concentrations of zinc in samples were 36 and 17 gL-1. In order to access heterotrophic plate count, wastewater samples were cultured on nutrient agar by pour plate method and to count and isolate the Zn resistant bacteria, samples were cultured by spread plate method on PHG-II agar include of 0.5 mML-1 of Zn in three dilution and two replications.
To assessment the resistance threshold in resistant bacteria, bacteria that were grown on PHG-II agar, were cultured on PHG-II with various concentrations ranging from 1 to 8 mML-1, respectively. According to the acquired results, microbial activity and viable population size(plate count), both decreased at the presence of Zn. There was a significant difference between the number of resistant bacteria in samples. It was found a significant correlation(r2=+0.99) between the viable population size and Zinc concentration. The average of MIC in the studied samples, were 2 and 1.46 mML-1, respectively. This study aimed to determine bacterial resistance threshold to Zn and investigation the relationship between the bacterial population size and Zn concentration in contaminated sites to assess bioremediation potential in these habitats.

The reusability of the effluent from the wastewater treatment plant of an organized industrial district in the northwest of Turkiye was investigated in this study. Chemical precipitation and ion exchange methods were used to obtain a water reusable for agricultural irrigation purposes.
Treatment of synthetic textile waste water by combined chemical coagulation/ultrafiltration
© Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (6/2009)
Industrial textile generates large volumes of effluents which are heavily loaded with pollutants, turbidity and are highly concentrated in salts and color. A significant improvement in effluent quality is required before it is discharged into the environment. In the present work, performances of combined process using chemical coagulation and ultrafiltration were investigated in treating synthetic textile wastewater containing reactive dyes (Blue S-GLD 150 dyes) and different salt concentration. The efficiency of the combined process was evaluated in terms of effluent decolourization and turbidity removal.
Exploitation of an agroindustrial wastewater: from OMW to biofuels Premium
© IWWG International Waste Working Group (11/2006)
Owing to acidity, phenolic compounds, suspended substances, high organic content and phytotoxicity, the wastewater coming from the oil mills (OMW) is considered as one of the most polluting agroindustrial effluents.
