Vegetable Wastes

Fruit and vegetable wastes are generated in large quantities around the world. This kind of residue constitutes a source of nuisance in municipal landfills because of its high biodegradability. Another residue that is generated in large quantities around the world and also constitutes a source of nuisance is the sewage sludge. Both residues can be treated together by the anaerobic co-digestion process. In this sense, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the anaerobic co-digestion of fruit and vegetable waste and sewage sludge, in order to monitor the waste stabilization time and the biogas generation, among others. The study was conducted in a 70 litter stainless steel anaerobic reactor, with no mixing system, at room temperature (25±5ºC), during a period of 105 days. The fruit and vegetable wastes were collected in a central distribution market for food, and were shredded and blended before the experiment. The seed inoculum was collected in an anaerobic domestic sewage station of treatment. The parameters analyzed were: chemical oxygen demand, C/N and C/N/P ratios, pH, alkalinity, volatile fatty acids, and biogas generation. The results showed that the chemical oxygen demand was reduced around 20%. The parameters, pH, alkalinity and volatile fatty acids were stabilized, but the C/N wasn’t stabilized. The final value obtained for C/N ratio was around 20/1. The biogas generation was around 331 litters and most of the biogas production occurred during the first month of the experiment. The low chemical oxygen demand removal, the high C/N ratio and the biogas generation almost always in the first few days of the experiment probably indicate that this residue, although being organic, presents difficulties in its degradation, maybe because of the high organic load that was applied to the reactor. The fact of the reactor being disproved by a mixing system can also have contributed to the low residue degradation.

Printing Processes

Industrial offset printing processes generate wastewater with highly colored obtaining values of 5x10<sup>6</sup> Pt-Co units and great values of chemical oxygen demand (COD) 5.3x10<sup>-5</sup> mg L<sup>-1</sup>. Thus, conventional technologies such as biologicals treatment fail in reaching the discharge limits. In this research, a sequential treatment was applied: coagulation with aluminum hydroxychloride (AHC), electrocoagulation with Al anodes and finally ozonation. Optimal conditions are found when adding 20 mg L<sup>-1</sup> AHC, followed by electrocoagulation at 4 A for 50 min, and finally alkaline ozonation for 15 min, resulting in an overall color removal of 99.99% color and 99.35% COD.

AbstractIndustrial wastewater is a growing environmental challenge due to its high concentrations of organics and its limited biological degradability. Up to date, however, no published work discussed industrial wastewater characterization, which is the focus of this study. Moreover, the effect of hydrothermal treatment on the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal and the soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) release was investigated in this work. Wastewater samples were collected from different industrial sites and characterized in order to determine their initial properties. It was summarized that the salinity of wastewater estimated by EC was relatively low, and its pH values were in the acceptable range. On the other hand, however, high values of sodium absorption ratio (SAR) were obtained in all samples post to hydrothermal treatment. Nonetheless, our results revealed higher SCOD release post to hydrothermal treatment suggesting better efficiency of COD removal obtained by this treatment technique.

Input Variables

Industrial waste oil in water from oil refineries and petrochemical processing poses a major environmental concern. Environmental pollution from these wastewaters is increasing and will continue to rise due to a growing demand for petrochemical products and energy. The composition of these industrial wastes varies from location to location as well as with manufacturing processes. In terms of water quality issues, chemical oxygen demand is considered one of the most problematic in oil refinery wastewater treatment. This study applies the response surface methodology to obtain a response model for industrial wastewater treatment. Operating parameters are optimized to enhance the treatment performance. The study, focusing on the effects of input variables for chemical oxygen demand removal, was experimentally carried out using dissolved air floatation jar tests. The experimental matrix incorporated the Box-Behnken design in the response surface methodology. In addition, the procedure evaluated the effect of the input variables and their interactions to obtain the optimum condition for the extent of efficiency. The results show that the chemical oxygen demand removal was sensitive to the effect of the input variables and their interactions. The statistical analysis established that the quadratic model was highly significant with a low probability (< 0.0001), indicating that the correlated regression scattering was unlikely random. The predicted model results corresponded well to the experimental results, with a coefficient of determination close to 1.0. The response surface of the model is presented in three-dimensional plots. These study results show that the addition of a coagulant to remove chemical oxygen demand is effective under acidic conditions when response surface methodology is applied.
