A review on chemical coagulation/flocculation technologies for removal of colour from textile wastewaters.

TL;DR: Some novel pre-hydrolysed coagulants such as Polyaluminium chloride (PACl), Polyal aluminium ferric chloride (PAFCl), Polyferrous sulphate (PFS) and Polyferic chloride (PFCl) have been found to be more effective and suggested for decolourisation of the textile wastewater.
Journal ArticleDOI

Treatment of textile wastewaters by electrocoagulation employing Fe-Al composite electrode

TL;DR: In this paper, an electrocoagulation process employing Fe-Al composite electrode was applied for treatment of different types of textile wastewaters, and the effect of major operating parameters such as pH, reaction time, current density, voltage and inter-electrode distance were investigated for chemical oxygen demand (COD) and colour removal efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive review on eco-toxicity and biodegradation of phenolics: Recent progress and future outlook

TL;DR: In this paper , a review of the assessment of biological removal of phenolic pollutants from the contaminated environment along with the various associated problems is presented, in particular, the mechanism of ecotoxicity of these pollutants on the living system, the functional enzymes and metabolic pathways involved in microbial degradation, including co-metabolic and co-culture degradation, were elaborately reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrocoagulation for removal of phosphate from aqueous solution: Statistical modeling and techno-economic study

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate electrocoagulation as a process for the remediation of phosphate contaminated synthetic aqueous solutions using scrap aluminium plate electrodes in monopolar-parallel mode.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic profiling of phenol biodegradation by an indigenous Rhodococcus pyridinivorans strain PDB9T N-1 isolated from paper pulp wastewater

TL;DR: A reliable quadratic model was established which predicted the degradation efficiency as high as 99.5% with an appreciable correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.98 and phenol degradation efficiency was improved with concentrations beyond the central values for all media components except K2HPO4 and NaCl.
