  2. Degassing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degassing

    The most efficient method of industrial oil degassing is vacuum processing, which removes air and water solved in the oil. [6] This can be achieved by: spraying of oil in large vacuum chambers; distributing the oil into a thin layer over special surfaces (spiral rings, Raschig rings etc) in vacuum chambers.

  3. Environmental impact of paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_impact_of_paper

    EPA has found that recycling causes 35% less water pollution and 74% less air pollution than making virgin paper. [72] Pulp mills can be sources of both air and water pollution, especially if they are producing bleached pulp. Recycling paper decreases the demand for virgin pulp and thus reduces the overall amount of air and water pollution ...

  4. Groundwater remediation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundwater_remediation

    Dual-phase vacuum extraction (DPVE), also known as multi-phase extraction, is a technology that uses a high-vacuum system to remove both contaminated groundwater and soil vapor. In DPVE systems, a high-vacuum extraction well is installed with its screened section in the zone of contaminated soils and groundwater.

  5. Degas conductivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degas_conductivity

    There are generally two methods for removing carbon dioxide from the water sample: use of a reboiler to heat the sample and expel the CO 2, and use of inert gasses. In the latter method, an inert gas which does not contain CO 2 is passed through the sample water, whereby the gas components in the sample water are displaced by the gas components ...

  6. Leaching (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaching_(chemistry)

    Leaching is a naturally occurring process which scientists have adapted for a variety of applications with a variety of methods. Specific extraction methods depend on the soluble characteristics relative to the sorbent material such as concentration, distribution, nature, and size. [ 1 ]

    It typically takes 20 seconds for the liquid to move through the column, and industrial columns might process 16–160 litres per minute (960–9,600 L/h; 4.2–42.3 US gal/min; 250–2,540 US gal/h). The temperature and pressure can be adjusted depending on the compounds targeted.

  8. Spray tower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_tower

    A spray tower (or spray column or spray chamber) is a gas-liquid contactor used to achieve mass and heat transfer between a continuous gas phase (that can contain dispersed solid particles) and a dispersed liquid phase. It consists of an empty cylindrical vessel made of steel or plastic, and nozzles that spray liquid into the vessel.

  9. Agricultural wastewater treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agricultural_wastewater...

    Agricultural wastewater treatment is a farm management agenda for controlling pollution from confined animal operations and from surface runoff that may be contaminated by chemicals in fertilizer, pesticides, animal slurry, crop residues or irrigation water. Agricultural wastewater treatment is required for continuous confined animal operations ...
