Granular activated carbon-biofilm configured sequencing batch reactor treatment of C.I. Acid Orange 7
(Elsevier Ltd, 2008)The aim of this study is to investigate the mineralization of C.I. Acid Orange 7 (AO7) by biological process in oxygen limited condition under GAC-biofilm configured sequencing batch reactor (SBCR) operation. The granular ... -
Kinetics of adsorption of Cu(II) and Cd(II) from aqueous solution on rice husk and modified rice husk
(University of Vigo, 2007-02)The present study is aimed to investigate the adsorption behavior of Cu(II) and Cd(II) ions onto rice husk and modified rice husk. The adsorption of the heavy metal ions over both the adsorbents was found to follow Langmuir ... -
Removal of chromium (VI) from aqueous solution using treated oil palm fibre
(Elsevier B.V, 2007-07-17)This study proposed an oil palm by-product as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of hexavalent chromium [Cr (VI)] from aqueous solution. Adsorption of Cr (VI) by sulphuric acid and heat-treated oil palm fibre was conducted ... -
Anaerobic treatment of olive mill wastewater and piggery effluents fermented with Candida tropicalis
(Elsevier B.V., 2008-09-24)Olive mill wastewater (OMW) contains high concentrations of phenolic compounds that are inhibitory to many microorganisms making it difficult to treat biologically prior to discharge in waterways. The total mono-cyclic ... -
Estimation of missing values in air pollution data using single imputation techniques
(Science Society of Thailand, 2008)Air pollution data obtained using automated machines often contain missing values which can cause bias due to systematic differences between observed and unobserved data. We used interpolation and mean imputation techniques ... -
Climate augmentation of erythemal UV-B radiation dose damage in the tropics and global change
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2007-12-10)Skin cancer (UV carcinogenesis) causing erythemal solar ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation dosages received at tropical latitudes are about five times higher compared to mid-latitudes. The tropical environment also experiences ... -
Comparative Characterization of Clinker’s Microstructure at Different Temperature Zone during Cement Production
(Science Publications, 2007)Temperature is an important parameter for transformation of minerals in clinker during cement productions. It influences the formation of alite from belite during calcinations and clinkering processes. The result of ... -
Risk assessment study for storage explosive
(Science Publications, 2006)In Malaysia, there has been rapidly increasing usage in amount of explosives due to widely expansion in quarrying and mining industries. The explosives are usually stored in the storage where the safety precaution had given ... -
Comparative Study of Clinker’s Transformation at Different Temperature Zone During Cement Production
(Science Publications, 2007)Chemical composition analysis using x-ray fluorescence is one of the important quality analysis for examining of cement and widely used in cement industries for a long time as a tool to estimate phase composition. X-ray ...
