TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed two different methods for the assessment of the initial soluble inert COD fraction and summarized their comparative evaluation for five different industrial wastes characterizing pulp and paper, meat processing, antibiotics, textile and dairy effluents.

TL;DR: In this article, the biological treatability of an integrated dairy plant wastewater containing a small fraction of whey-washwaters mixture has been experimentally investigated and the results have shown that the wastewater tested had practically no initially inert fraction, but generated residual microbial products amounting to 6-7% of the initial degradable COD.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the framework of the endogenous decay model and summarized the necessary COD fractionation and the kinetic information to be incorporated in this model as applied to a meat processing effluent.

TL;DR: In this article, a large number of textile plants in Turkey have been studied and evaluated in terms of characteristics and treatability of wastewaters involved as related to relevant production parameters, exhibiting significant differences for each plant.

TL;DR: In this article, the results of the industrial source inventory and characterization study in the Istanbul watershed areas have been summarized, and the industrial loads are presented by industrial sub-category and evaluated and discussed.
