Application of the advanced oxidative process on the degradation of the green leaf and purple açaí food dyes with kinetic monitoring and artificial neural network modelling.

Water science and technology : a journal of the International Association on Water Pollution Research
The study evaluated the advanced oxidative processes concerning the degradation of green leaf and purple açaí dyes, as well as the prediction of data through artificial neural networks (ANNs). It was verified that percentage of degradation on the wav...

Chemical coagulation of greywater: modelling using artificial neural networks.

Water science and technology : a journal of the International Association on Water Pollution Research
In the present study, chemical coagulation with alum and polyaluminium chloride (PACl) was utilized for greywater treatment. More than 140 jar tests on greywater with varying characteristics were conducted in order to determine the optimum coagulant ...

An intelligent detecting system for permeability prediction of MBR.

Water science and technology : a journal of the International Association on Water Pollution Research
The membrane bioreactor (MBR) has been widely used to purify wastewater in wastewater treatment plants. However, a critical difficulty of the MBR is membrane fouling. To reduce membrane fouling, in this work, an intelligent detecting system is develo...

Synthesis of MnFeO and MnO magnetic nano-composites with enhanced properties for adsorption of Cr(VI): artificial neural network modeling.

Water science and technology : a journal of the International Association on Water Pollution Research
This study reports adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) by magnetic manganese ferrite and manganese oxide nano-particles (MnF-MO-NPs) composite from aqueous media. The X-ray diffraction pattern of MnF-MO-NPs revealed a polycrystalline nature with nanoscale c...

[Enhanced Treatment of Printing and Dyeing Wastewater Using HO-Biochemical Method].

Huan jing ke xue= Huanjing kexue
The traditional biochemical treatment of printing and dyeing wastewater has limited efficiency. This study investigated whether HO could strengthen the biological ability of the hydrolytic acidification/biological contact oxidation process (A/O), whi...

An electrochemical sequential injection method to investigate the adsorption of selenite on Fe(III) polyhydroxy cations intercalated vermiculite.

Water science and technology : a journal of the International Association on Water Pollution Research
A sequential injection - square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SI-SWASV) method for determination of Se(IV) at a gold working electrode was developed to investigate the adsorption of Se(IV) onto vermiculite intercalated with Fe(III) polyhydroxy c...

Artificial intelligence based model for optimization of COD removal efficiency of an up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor in the saline wastewater treatment.

Water science and technology : a journal of the International Association on Water Pollution Research
The complex non-linear behavior presented in the biological treatment of wastewater requires an accurate model to predict the system performance. This study evaluates the effectiveness of an artificial intelligence (AI) model, based on the combinatio...

Prediction of coagulation and flocculation processes using ANN models and fuzzy regression.

Water science and technology : a journal of the International Association on Water Pollution Research
Coagulation and flocculation are two main processes used to integrate colloidal particles into larger particles and are two main stages of primary water treatment. Coagulation and flocculation processes are only needed when colloidal particles are a ...

[Evaluation of drinking-water treatment by Lifestraw® and Ceramic-pot filters].

Revista de salud publica (Bogota, Colombia)
Objective To evaluate under laboratory conditions, the removal efficiency of turbidity and E. coli of two household water filters: LifeStraw® family (MF) and ceramic pot filter (CPF). Methods The two systems were operated over 6 months using two iden...

Improvement of the Performance of an Electrocoagulation Process System Using Fuzzy Control of pH.

Water environment research : a research publication of the Water Environment Federation
The removal efficiencies of electrocoagulation (EC) systems are highly dependent on the initial value of pH. If an EC system has an acidic influent, the pH of the effluent increases during the treatment process; conversely, if such a system has an al...
