Aquaculture production operations that help feed the world's growing population also generate polluted wastewater that harms the environment. Four studies published by Purdue University scientists ...

Researchers at IIT Guwahati and IIT BHU have developed a bacterial method to treat azo-dye textile wastewater. The study found high dye degradation and non-toxic byproducts, supporting a scalable ...

Researchers at Oxford Brookes University have pioneered an innovative method to tackle one of the world's most persistent environmental threats—toxic chemicals in global water supplies. PFAS chemicals ...

Researchers from IIT Guwahati and BHU have devised an eco-friendly biological method to treat textile wastewater, specifically targeting toxic azo dyes. Their novel bacterium, 'Brevundimonas sp. AJZ05 ...

As we flush our toilets and drain our sinks, few of us consider where our wastewater goes next. Yet, the wastewater treatment industry, a cornerstone of modern sanitation, is facing challenges that ...

Researchers at IIT Guwahati have developed a biological treatment process that uses naturally occurring bacteria to remove lead from acidic industrial wastewater, offering an alternative to ...

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are significant contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), and nitrous oxide (N2O). Traditional methods for ...

These pollutants come from various sources, including industrial processes such as petrochemical production, pharmaceuticals, and metal manufacturing, as well as domestic sewage, agricultural runoff, ...

Food Science professor Jen-Yi Huang leads a team creating a pilot-scale aquaculture system use algae for wastewater treatment. Experiments are underway to determine which algae variety will be most ...
