Phytoremediation of the coalmine effluent

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2012
Coal mine effluent was subjected to detoxification by phytoremediation using two macrophytes Azolla pinnata and Lemna minor. Both plants were kept separately in the effluents for 7 day. The initial concentration (mg L⁻¹) of eight metals: Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Ni, Pb, Cr and Cd investigated in the effluent were 22.91±0.02, 9.61±1.6, 2.04±0.23, 1.03±0.15, 0.86±

Genotoxicity of swine effluents

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2011
This study aimed at the investigation of genotoxic effects of swine effluents from different stages of a treatment system for swine wastes through bioassay of stamen hairs and micronuclei in Tradescantia (clone BNL 4430). No significant differences (p≥0.05) regarding the genic mutations were found in the bioassay of stamen hairs, independently of the ...

FILTRATION OF EFFLUENTS FOR MICROIRRIGATION SYSTEMS [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the ASAE, 2005
Clogging, measured through head loss across filters, and the filtration quality of different filters using different effluents were studied. The filters used were: 115, 130, and 200 m disc filters; 98, 115, 130, and 178 m screen filters; and a sand filter filled with a single layer of sand with an effective diameter of 0.65 mm.
