Optimization of the coagulation-flocculation process for vegetable oil refinery wastewater using a full factorial design

Chaymae Haddaji et al.

Summary: In this study, a full factorial design was used to investigate the effect of various variables on turbidity and COD removal in vegetable oil refineries wastewater treatment. The results showed that coagulation-flocculation was effective for turbidity removal regardless of the pollutant load. Under optimal conditions, high turbidity and COD removal efficiencies were achieved. The study suggests that physical pretreatment is a promising option for efficient coagulation-flocculation.

An Experimentally Verified LC-MS Protocol toward an Economical, Reliable, and Quantitative Isotopic Analysis in Nitrogen Reduction Reactions

Sandra Elizabeth Saji et al.

Summary: Various labile techniques have emerged to substitute the energy-intensive Haber-Bosch process for ammonia synthesis, with isotopic labeling studies being a reliable control strategy. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is widely used for detecting ammonia in water electrolyte systems, but there is a need for a safer, reproducible, and cost-effective protocol for N-15 isotopic analysis.

Summary: Although the technology for photo/electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis has developed rapidly, the yields over state-of-the-art catalysts remain very moderate, leading to challenges in reliable quantification of the low concentration of synthesized ammonia. Integration of multiple detection methods is proposed to overcome the challenges in detecting low concentrations of ammonia, and an effective criterion for precise quantification of ammonia is presented to avoid unreasonable comparisons in photo/electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis.
