Ammonia removal from raw manure digestate by means of a turbulent mixing stripping process.

It is noteworthy to highlight that ammonia nitrogen contamination in wastewater has been reported to pose a great threat to the environment. This conventional method of remediating ammonia nitrogen contamination in wastewater applies the packed bed tower technology. Nevertheless, this technology appears to pose several application issues. Over the years, researchers have tested various types of ammonia stripping process to overcome the shortcomings of the conventional ammonia stripping technology. Along this line, the present study highlights the recent development of ammonia stripping process for industrial wastewater treatment. In addition, this study reviews ammonia stripping application for varied types of industrial wastewater and several significant operating parameters. Furthermore, this paper discusses some issues related to the conventional ammonia stripper for industrial treatment application. Finally, this study explicates the future prospects of the ammonia stripping method. This review, hence, contributes by enhancing the ammonia stripping treatment efficiency and its application for industrial wastewater treatment.

Ammonia removal by air stripping in a semi-batch jet loop reactor

The Taguchi method has been used to determine the optimum conditions for the dissolution of malachite ore in H2SO4 solutions. The chosen experimental parameters and their range were (i) reaction temperature: 15 to 45 °C, (ii) solid-to-liquid ratio: 1/10 to 1/3 g cm–3, (iii) acid concentration (in weight): 2 % to 10 %, (iv) particle size: –40 to –3.5 mesh, (v) stirring speed: 240 to 720 rpm, and (vi) reaction time: 5 to 45 minutes. The optimum conditions were found to be reaction temperature: 40 °C, solid-to-liquid ratio: 1/3 g cm–3, acid concentration (in weight): 10 %, particle size: –30 mesh, stirring speed: 480 rpm, and reaction time: 45 minutes. Under these optimum working conditions, the dissolution of copper and iron in malachite ore was 100 % and 58 %, respectively. Besides, alternative working conditions reducing the total cost and dissolution of iron were found.

Determination of the Optimum Conditions for Leaching of Malachite Ore in H2SO4 Solutions

The Taguchi method was used to determine optimum conditions for the boric acid extraction from colemanite ore containing As in aqueous media saturated by CO{sub 2} gas. After the parameters were determined to be efficient on the extraction efficiency, the experimental series with two steps were carried out. The chosen experimental parameters for the first series of experiments and their ranges were as follows: (1) reaction temperature, 25--70 C; (2) solid-to-liquid ratio (by weight), 0.091 to 0.333; (3) gas flow rate (in mL/min), 66.70--711; (4) mean particle size, {minus}100 to {minus}10 mesh; (5) stirring speed, 200--600 rpm; (6) reaction time, 10--90 min. The optimum conditions were found to be as follows: reaction temperature, 70 C; solid-to-liquid ratio, 0.091; gas flow rate, 711 (in mL/min); particle size, {minus}100 mesh; stirring speed, 500 rpm; reaction time, 90 min. Under these optimum conditions, the boric acid extraction efficiency from the colemanite containing As was approximately 54%. Chosen experimental parameters for the second series of experiments and their ranges were as follows: (1) reaction temperature, 60--80 C; (2) solid-to-liquid ratio (by weight), 0.1000 to 0.167; (3) gas pressure (in atm), 1.5; 2.7; (4) reaction time, 45--120 min. The optimum conditions were found to bemore » as follows: reaction temperature, 70 C; solid-to-liquid ratio, 0.1; gas pressure, 2.7 atm; reaction time, 120 min. Under these optimum conditions the boric acid extraction efficiency from the colemanite ore was approximately 75%. Under these optimum conditions, the boric acid extraction efficiency from calcined colemanite ore was approximately 99.55%.« less
