Pollution Mitigation in Vermicelli Wastewater: Integrated Fenton and Aerobic Sludge Treatment for Water Quality Improvement by Phuoc Bao Niem Nguyen, Van Toan Pham, Hoang Viet Le, Pankaj Kumar, Gowhar Meraj

“…Orientation experiments were performed to examine the effects of operating variables such as pH, reaction time, settling time, and ratio H2O2/Fe2+ on COD removal in order to select the optimal conditions for operating the model in a batch of 20 L, that is, pH = 3, reaction time of 90 min, settling time of 90 min, and ratio of H2O2/Fe2+ used 3 : 1 (4.5 : 1.5 g/L). The removal efficiencies of COD, BOD5, TN, TP, and SS reached 75.83%, 67.26%, 28.24%, 26.63%, and 91.9%, respectively. …”
