Biological Treatment Processes For Fish Processing Wastewater–A Review, Pankaj Chowdhury, T. Viraraghavan, A. Srinivasan Dec 2009

Biological Treatment Processes For Fish Processing Wastewater–A Review, Pankaj Chowdhury, T. Viraraghavan, A. Srinivasan

PC

Water consumption in a fish-processing industry and high-strength wastewater from such an industry are of great concern world-wide. Liquid effluent regulations are becoming more stringent day by day. Biological treatment is the best option for such a wastewater. Anaerobic processes such as upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor, anaerobic filter (AF) and anaerobic fluidized bed (AFB) reactor can achieve high (80–90%) organics removal and produce biogas. Aerobic processes such as activated sludge, rotating biological contactor, trickling filter and lagoons are also suitable for organics removal. Anaerobic digestion followed by an aerobic process is an optimal process option for fish processing …


Sonochemical Degradation Of Chlorinated Organic Compounds, Phenolic Compounds And Organic Dyes–A Review, Pankaj Chowdhury, T. Viraraghavan Mar 2009

Sonochemical Degradation Of Chlorinated Organic Compounds, Phenolic Compounds And Organic Dyes–A Review, Pankaj Chowdhury, T. Viraraghavan

PC

Sonochemical processes have been widely used in chemistry and chemical engineering field. Recently, these processes have found new applications in the environmental field, because of advantages in terms of operational simplicity, secondary pollutant formation and safety. Several studies have reported on sonochemical degradation of organic compounds that are toxic in nature. The objective of this review was to identify and examine some of the studies on sonochmical degradation of chlorinated organic compounds, phenolic compounds and organic dyes. This review also examines the basic theory of sonochemical reactions and the use of sonochemical reactors for environmental applications.
