Öğe Factorial design and optimization of date stone as a natural coagulant for organic and heavy metals removal from industrial wastewater(Global Network Environmental Science & Technology, 2023) Abu Amr, S. S.; Abujazar, M. S. S.; Karaagac, S. U.; Mehdi, K. K.; Alazaiza, M. Y. D.; Bashir, M. J. K.; Fatihah, S.Several chemical coagulants previously utilize for wastewater treatment with significant performance in removing heavy metals and other parameters. However, their cost effective and the residual of toxic chemical precipitates that pose problems to human health and the environment. Therefore, using plant-based natural coagulants is considered as an alternative technique which is non-toxic, biodegradable and environmentally friendly. This research aims to explore the performance of date stones as a natural coagulant in iron and steel plant wastewater treatment and to optimize the operating parameters to assess the feasibility of using date stones in the wastewater treatment sector. Response Surface Methodology (RSM), a statistical experimental design, was used to improve the COD, TSS, NH3-N, and heavy metals removal efficiency using 1.4 g/200 mL date stones as control parameters, as well as pH and settling time. At pH 8, the most significant removal efficiency for COD, NH3-N, Fe, Mn, Al, Cu, and Ni was 61, 63, 93, 93, 96.5, 51, and 86 %, respectively. The quadratic models for the parameters chosen were found to be significant with low probability (<0.001), except for NH3-N (0.004), Fe (0.0042), and Ni (0.0025). The study's results revealed the potential of utilizing date stones as a natural coagulant for the treatment of iron and steel industrial wastewater.Öğe An overview of chemical oxidation-based remediation technologies for non-aqueous phase liquids removal from soil(Global Network Environmental Science & Technology, 2022) Alazaiza, M. Y. D.; Albahnasawi, A.; Copty, N. K.; Ali, G. A. M.; Bashir, M. J. K.; Abu Amr, S. S.; Abushammala, M. F. M.This review provides a general overview of the application of chemical oxidation to hydrophobic contaminants in the form of non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs). Six types of chemical oxidation processes, three conventional process: activated persulfate, permanganate, and ozonation, along with three advanced oxidation processes (AOPs):Fenton process, photocatalysis, and plasma oxidation are presented discussed. In addition, this paper provides a brief insight into the combination of chemical oxidation with other remediation technologies for the efficient removal of NAPLs. The common and wide use of activated persulfate for soil remediation is hindered by the fact that it needs heat activation, whereas the main drawback of using permanganate is the precipitation of manganese oxide at the NAPLs face. In addition, the high cost of equipment at the site restricts the ozone application for in-suit soil remediation. The application of AOPs processes such as Fenton and plasma oxidation has received great attention due to its high removal efficiency. However, photocatalysis technology in the field is difficult because it needs photo energy to run the oxidation process. Although plasma oxidation can degrade contaminants in minutes, some active species have short-lived time that could disappear before entering the soil layer. Ozonation is efficient in treat soils with low moisture and large pore spaces. Nevertheless, the optimal pH for ozonation oxidation is 3, which is hard to achieve in real-world applications. Combining chemical oxidation with other remediation technology, especially biological remediation, is a valuable technique of soil remediation as the synergetic effects may increase the sustainability of the applied process towards green technology for soil remediation.Öğe Performance of combined persulfate and tannin for the treatment of anaerobically treated palm oil mill effluent(Global Network Environmental Science & Technology, 2021) Ayash, M. M. A.; Abu Amr, S. S.; Alkarkhi, A. F. M.; Alazaiza, M. Y. D.; Hamad, R. J. A.The current research was aimed to investigate the performance of combined persulfate oxidation process and tannin via coagulation-flocculation processes as a post treatment of anaerobically treated palm oil mill effluent (AnT-POME). Different dosages of sodium persulfate (Na2S2O8, 238 g/mol) 0.1 (w/v) and modified tannin were combined as a simultaneous reaction to treat AnT-POME. Different dosage of tannin ranged between 0.02g and 0.12g with pH variation ranged between 3 and 11 retention and retention time of (30, 90, 120 and 180) were evaluated. The performance of the treatment processes was evaluated based on the removal of three different parameters namely; chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammoniacal nitrogen (NH3-N) and color under the following operational conditions: persulfate dosage, tannin dosage, pH and retention time (min). Using persulfate alone, the maximum removal efficiency of COD, color, and NH3-N were 50%, 60% and 22%, respectively by using 4 mL of 0.1 (w/v) persulfate dosage at pH 7 and 60 min retention time. While the performance of simultaneous reaction improves the removal efficiencies of COD, color, and NH3-N to 90%, 96% and 44%, respectively using 4 mL of 0.1 (w/v) persulfate and 0.06 g of tannin during 120 min retention time at pH 7. However, the maximum removal of NH3-N (59%) was achieved at pH 11. The study revealed that the simultaneous persulfate/tannin reaction is a promising treatment method for industrial wastewater treatment.Öğe Recent advancements in plant-based natural coagulant application in the water and wastewater coagulation-flocculation process: challenges and future perspectives(Global Network Environmental Science & Technology, 2022) Abujazar, M. S. S.; Karaagac, S. U.; Abu Amr, S. S.; Alazaiza, M. Y. D.; Fatihah, S.; Bashir, M. J. K.Growing environmental awareness coupled with stricter regulations has pushed various industries to look for appropriate technologies to treat wastewater. Natural coagulants have recently been used as part of water and wastewater technologies due to their performance, costeffectiveness when compared to chemical coagulants, they produce less sludge and are safer for humans. A huge effort has also been taken to find new plant species and ingredients that may be used as natural coagulants, and hence improve the efficacy of existing plant-based natural coagulants. The purpose of this research is to assess the progress of various natural coagulants used for water and wastewater treatment. Besides, several plant-based natural coagulants are also summarized and reviewed. The results reveal that natural coagulants are more successful than chemical coagulants at removing heavy metals and suspended particles from wastewater, with better removal efficiency exceeding chemical coagulants and being more environmentally friendly.
