Design of industrial wastewater demulsifier by HLD-NAC model.

ABSTRACT: The chemical method is one of the treatment techniques for the separation of oil-water emulsion systems. The selection of appropriate demulsifiers for each emulsion system is the most challenging issue. Hydrophilic-lipophilic-deviation (HLD) is a powerful semi-empirical model, providing predictive tools to formulate the emulsion and microemulsion systems. This work aims to apply HLD to obtain an optimal condition for demulsification of oil-in-water emulsion system-real industrial wastewater-with different water in oil ratios (WOR). Therefore, the oil parameter of the contaminant oil and surfactant parameter for three types of commercial surfactants were calculated by performing salinity scans. Furthermore, the net-average-curvature (NAC) framework coupled with HLD was used to predict the phase behavior of the synthetic microemulsion systems, incorporating solubilization properties, the shape of droplets, and quality of optimum formulation. The geometrical sizes of non-spherical droplets (L_d, R_d)-as an indicator of how droplet sizes are changing with HLD-were consistent with the separation results. Correlating L_d/R_d at phase transition points with bottle test results validates the hypothesis that NAC-predicted geometries and demulsification behavior are interconnected. Finally, the effect of sec-butanol was examined on both synthetic and real systems, providing reliable insights in terms of the effect of alcohol for WOR ≠ 1.

Photochemical Degradation of Cyanides and Thiocyanates from an Industrial Wastewater.

Project description:We have explored the simultaneous degradation of cyanides and thiocyanate present in wastewaters from a cokemaking factory using photoassisted methods under varied illumination conditions (from simulated solar light to UV light). Overall, the photochemical degradation of cyanides was more efficient than that of thiocyanates, regardless of the illumination conditions, the effect being more pronounced in the absence of a photocatalyst. This is due to their different degradation mechanism that in the case of thiocyanates is dominated by fast recombination reactions and/or charge transfer reactions to electron scavengers. In all cases, cyanate, ammonia, nitrates, and nitrites were formed at different amounts depending on the illumination conditions. The conversion yield under simulated solar light was almost complete for cyanides and quite high for thiocyanates after 6 h of illumination. Regarding toxicity, photochemical oxidation at 254 nm and under simulated solar light decreased significantly the toxicity of the pristine wastewater, showing a correlation with the intensity of the irradiation source. This indicate that simulated light can be effectively used to reduce the toxicity of industrial effluents, opening an interesting perspective for optimizing cyanide detoxification systems based on natural light.

Model-driven experimental design workflow expands understanding of regulatory role of Nac in <i>Escherichia coli</i>.

Project description:The establishment of experimental conditions for transcriptional regulator network (TRN) reconstruction in bacteria continues to be impeded by the limited knowledge of activating conditions for transcription factors (TFs). Here, we present a novel genome-scale model-driven workflow for designing experimental conditions, which optimally activate specific TFs. Our model-driven workflow was applied to elucidate transcriptional regulation under nitrogen limitation by Nac and NtrC, in Escherichia coli. We comprehensively predict alternative nitrogen sources, including cytosine and cytidine, which trigger differential activation of Nac using a model-driven workflow. In accordance with the prediction, genome-wide measurements with ChIP-exo and RNA-seq were performed. Integrative data analysis reveals that the Nac and NtrC regulons consist of 97 and 43 genes under alternative nitrogen conditions, respectively. Functional analysis of Nac at the transcriptional level showed that Nac directly down-regulates amino acid biosynthesis and restores expression of tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle genes to alleviate nitrogen-limiting stress. We also demonstrate that both TFs coherently modulate α-ketoglutarate accumulation stress due to nitrogen limitation by co-activating amino acid and diamine degradation pathways. A systems-biology approach provided a detailed and quantitative understanding of both TF's roles and how nitrogen and carbon metabolic networks respond complementarily to nitrogen-limiting stress.

Characterization of Brassica napus responses to diluted and undiluted industrial wastewater.

Project description:Rising water scarcity, together with increased industrial wastewater production, suggests reusing of wastewater for plant irrigation. The wastewater from Razi petrochemical complex contained different salts and heavy metals. Variation in Brassica napus responses to wastewater irrigation has recommended appropriate levels of mineral nutrients in diluted wastewater that stimulated plant growth, and toxic levels of salts in undiluted wastewater that restricted plant growth. The undiluted wastewater irrigation significantly decreased chlorophyll fluorescence, along with photosynthetic capacity, while wastewater dilution mitigated its adverse effect. High levels of salts in undiluted wastewater induced an imbalance in plant mineral nutrients, which was evidenced with increased lipid peroxidation and reduced plant growth. On the contrary to adverse effects of undiluted wastewater on plant performance, the diluted wastewater, especially at 50% level, behaved as a fertilizer which increased leaf mineral nutrients, photosynthetic capacity, morphological and anatomical features of plant, but decreased lipid peroxidation. In relation to improvement in photosynthetic capacity, a significant increase was achieved in stomatal traits in plants irrigated with half-strength wastewater. In conclusion, due to the nutrition values of wastewater, it can be suggested to irrigate plants with diluted wastewater with the aim of improving crop productivity and saving freshwater sources.

Response Surface Optimization of Biophotocatalytic Degradation of Industrial Wastewater for Bioenergy Recovery.

Project description:The continuous combustion of fossil fuels and industrial wastewater pollution undermines global environmental and socio-economic sustainability. Addressing this necessitates a techno-scientific revolution to recover the renewable energy potential of wastewater towards a circular economy. Herein, a developed biophotocatalytic (BP) system was examined with an engineered Fe-TiO2 to ascertain its degradability efficiency and biogas production from industrial wastewater. The response surface methodology (RSM) based on a modified Box-Behnken designed experiment was used to optimize and maximize the BP system's desirability. The parameters investigated included catalyst dosage of 2-6 g and hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 1-31 d at a constant temperature of 37.5 °C and organic loading rate of 2.38 kgCOD/Ld. The modified RSM-BBD predicted 100% desirability at an optimal catalyst load of 4 g and HRT of 21 d. This represented 267 mL/d of biogas and >98% COD, color, and turbidity removal. The experimental validity was in good agreement with the model predicted results at a high regression (R2 > 0.98) and 95% confidence level. This finding provides an insight into RSM modeling and optimization with the potential of integrating the BP system into wastewater settings for the treatment of industrial wastewater and biogas production.

Characterization and phylogeny of fungi isolated from industrial wastewater using multiple genes.

Project description:The aim of this study was the isolation and molecular characterization of fungi from untreated refinery effluent by using multiple conserved genes. The Fungi isolated were characterized based on PCR amplification and genomic sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), partial β-tubulin (BenA), calmodulin (CaM), and RNA polymerase second large subunit (RPB2) genes, along with morphological characterization. The obtained sequences were subjected to BLAST analysis and the corresponding fungal isolates were assigned species names after comparison with representative sequences available in GenBank. Fifteen (15) Fungi species belonging to four genera of Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, and Trichoderma with Aspergillus as the predominant genus were identified. Therefore these genes should be used as molecular markers for species level identification of fungi (especially Aspergillus and Penicillium as proven in this study.
