Abstract Coagulation-flocculation is a relatively simple technique that can be used successfully for the treatment of old leachate by poly-aluminum chloride (PAC). The main objectives of this study are to design the experiments, build models and optimize the operating parameters, dosage m and pH, using the central composite design and response surface method. Developed for chemical organic matter (COD) and turbidity responses, the quadratic polynomial model is suitable for prediction within the range of simulated variables as it showed that the optimum conditions were m of 5.55 g/L at pH 7.05, with a determination coefficient R² at 99.33%, 99.92% and adjusted R² at 98.85% and 99.86% for both COD and turbidity. We confirm that the initial pH and PAC dosage have significant effects on COD and turbidity removal. The experimental data and model predictions agreed well and the removal efficiency of COD, turbidity, Fe, Pb and Cu reached respectively 61%, 96.4%, 97.1%, 99% and 100%.

Modelling And Optimization

A systematic model for chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal using the ANAMMOX (Anaerobic AMMonium OXidation) process was provided based on an experimental design. At first, the experimental data was collected from a combined biological aerobic/anaerobic reactor. For modelling and optimization of COD removal, the main parameters were considered, such as COD loading, ammonium, pH, and temperature. From the models, the optimum conditions were determined as COD 97.5 mg/L, ammonium concentration equal to 28.75 mg-N/L, pH 7.72, and temperature 31.3°C. Finally, the analysis of the optimum conditions, performed by the response surface method, predicted COD removal efficiency of 81.07% at the optimum condition.

Recently, studies have focused on optimization as a method to reach the finest conditions for metal forming processes. This study tests various optimization techniques to determine the optimum conditions for single point incremental forming (SPIF). SPIF is a die-less forming process that depends on moving a tool along a path designed for a specific feature. As it involves various parameters, optimization based on experimental studies would be costly, hence a finite element model (FE-model) for the SPIF process is developed and validated through experimental results. In the second phase, statistical analyses based on the response surface method (RSM) are conducted. The optimum conditions are determined using the desirability optimization method, in addition to two metaheuristic optimization algorithms, namely genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). The results of all optimization techniques are compared to each other and a confirmation test using the FE-model is subsequently performed.

AbstractOne of the advanced oxidation processes, the Oxone process, was studied to determine its effects on the decolorization of Reactive Black 5 (RB5) in an aqueous solution. Ferrous ion was chosen as the transition metal due to its potential catalytic effect and wide availability in dye containing industrial effluents. The effects of the operating parameters such as Fe(II) and Oxone concentration, initial pH, and temperature on the process performance were investigated. The optimum conditions were determined as: 0.5 mM of Oxone concentration, 0.5 mM of Fe

Abstract In this study, powder activated carbon (PAC) utilized to activate peroxydisulfate (PDS) was investigated for decolorization of Acid Orange 7 (AO7). The results indicated a remarkable synergistic effect in the PAC/PDS system. The effect of PAC, PDS dosages and initial pH on AO7 decolorization were studied and the processes followed first-order kinetics. Response surface method with central composite design (CCD) model was utilized to optimize these three factors and analyze the combined interaction. The optimum condition for the decolorization rate of AO7 was analyzed as the following: PAC (0.19 g/L), PDS (1.64 g/L), and initial pH (4.14). Cl− and SO42− showed a promoting effect on AO7 decolorization while HCO3− had a slightly inhibiting effect. Quenching experiments confirmed that both sulfate and hydroxyl radicals were the oxidizing species, and the oxidation reaction occurred on the surface of PAC. The results of UV-vis spectrum with 100% decolorization rate and the 50% total organic carbon reduction indicated highly efficient decolorization and mineralization of AO7 in the PAC/PDS system. Finally, the recovery performance of PAC was studied and the result indicated PAC had poor reuse in reactivity.

This study evaluates the advanced oxidation process for decolorization of real textile dyeing wastewater containing azo and disperse dye by TiO2 and UV radiation. Among effective parameters on the photocatalytic process, effects of three operational parameters (TiO2 concentration, initial pH and aeration flow rate) were examined with response surface methodology. The F-value (136.75) and p-value <0.0001 imply that the model is significant. The ‘Pred R-Squared’ of 0.95 is in reasonable agreement with the ‘Adj R-Squared’ of 0.98, which confirms the adaptability of this model. From the quadratic models developed for degradation and subsequent analysis of variance (ANOVA) test using Design Expert software, the concentration of catalyst was found to be the most influential factor, while all the other factors were also significant. To achieve maximum dye removal, optimum conditions were found at TiO2 concentration of 3 g L−1, initial pH of 7 and aeration flow rate of 1.50 L min−1. Under the conditions stated, the percentages of dye and chemical oxygen demand removal were 98.50% and 91.50%, respectively. Furthermore, the mineralization test showed that total organic compounds removal was 91.50% during optimum conditions.

The degradation of the pharmaceutical paracetamol by using Fenton-like process in conjunction with ultrasonic cavitation was investigated. An evident synergistic effect was found in the combination of sonication and Fenton-like process. Through the application of Response Surface Methodology optimization, the optimum conditions for the degradation of paracetamol were initial pH 3.0, H2O27.0 mmol·L-1and sponge iron 4 g·L-1with acoustic power of 200 W. Under these parameters could obtain 99% degradation of 100mg·L-1paracetamol solution within 30 min treatment.
