Chemical and pharmaceutical chemicals found in water sources create substantial risks to human health and the environment. The presence of pharmaceutical contaminants in water can cause antibiotic resistance development, toxicity to aquatic organisms...
This study presents a generalized hybrid model for predicting HS and VOCs removal efficiency using a machine learning model: K-NN (K - nearest neighbors) and RF (random forest). The approach adopted in this study enabled the (i) identification of odo...
Biochar is commonly used to enhance the anaerobic digestion of organic waste solids and wastewater, due to its electrochemical properties, which intensify the electron transfer of microorganisms attached to its large surface area. However, it is diff...
Dynamic feedback of the removal performance of trace organic contaminants (TrOCs) is essential towards economical advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), whereas the corresponding quick-response feedback methods have long been desired. Herein, machine l...
Continuous effluent quality prediction in wastewater treatment processes is crucial to proactively reduce the risks to the environment and human health. However, wastewater treatment is an extremely complex process controlled by several uncertain, in...

A continuous stirred tank bioreactor (CSTB) with cell recycling combined with ceramic membrane technology and inoculated with Rhodococcus opacus PD630 was employed to treat petroleum refinery wastewater for simultaneous chemical oxygen demand (COD) r...
Catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) process is employed for the treatment of N-tert-butyl-2-benzothiazolesulfenamide (TBBS) wastewater in a microchannel reactor that enables continuous operation of the reaction and allows for thorough mixing of oxygen...
In the present study, a bioelectrochemical reactor (BEC) was utilized to treat two types of real saline produced water (PW). BEC was designed based on the combination of electrocoagulation (EC) process with halophilic microorganisms, and it was asses...
