In the last steps of the physical treatment of wastewater, it is necessary to provide a solution for the removal of very fine sand. Bubbles created in the liquid adhere to the colloidal particles and transfer to the higher level of the liquid.
Conclusion
Clarity of the outlet water from the DAF unit is one of the criteria for the proper operation of this system. The purpose of the coagulation process is to create microflakes from particles, agglomerate the particles, so they can settle and move to the sedimentation process.

Introduction
There are processes that are very effective in removing trace impurities, such as reverse osmosis. One of the most promising methods for removing recalcitrant compounds such as heavy metals is adsorption.

- Evaluating the suitability of the isothermal equations using experimental data
The range of values of 1/nis between 0 and 1 shows the degree of non-linearity between the concentration of the solution and the adsorption. The constants of the isotherm can be calculated by plotting ln(1/Ce) against ln(qe) and from the obtained straight line the slope is H and the intersection represents KH[41].
Conclusions
The chi-squared test statistic is basically the sum of the squared errors of the differences between the experimental data and the data obtained by calculations with the models. Therefore, the analysis of the Chi-square test dataset can confirm the isotherm that best fits the adsorption system.

Nevertheless, a clearer knowledge of the processes of reuse and the qualities of reused water compared to fresh water sources will lead to a more favorable public opinion.

It is the most important part of the wastewater treatment unit and is used for various purposes including wastewater treatment, recycling and pollution removal. JW =A σ π∆ − ∆P (2) where JW is the water flow, A is the water permeability coefficient of the membrane, σΔπ is the effective osmotic pressure difference in reverse osmosis, σ is the reflection coefficient and ΔP is the applied pressure; for FO, ΔP = 0; for RO, ΔP > Δπ [21]. Principles of osmotic processes: initial state of solutions, forward osmosis (FO), pressure delayed osmosis (PRO) and reverse osmosis (RO), adapted from Rao [24].
They can be anion or cation exchangers that allow anions and cations to flow out of the system. The quality of the treated water (pH, turbidity and other parameters), the type of disinfection used, the dosage of the disinfectant (time and concentration) and other external conditions affect the effectiveness of the disinfection. The wastewater flow rate within the reactor compartments containing the sludge affects solids retention in the ABR design.
The name of the reactor is to trap particles in the wastewater as it passes through it, while the active biomass attached to the surface of the filter material degrades the organic matter [43].
Limitations and prospects of wastewater treatment technologies 1 Physical and chemical technologies
- Biological technologies
Microbes in this situation break down chemical molecules or ions such as sulfates in the wastewater to obtain the necessary energy [56]. Microbial remediation and mycoremediation can be further classified based on the strategy used as bioattenuation (natural attenuation), biostimulation (use of organic or inorganic nutrients for remediation), and bioaugmentation (use of genetically engineered microbe). There are no hazardous chemicals to be disposed of and no heat is generated in operation.
Future trends include the recovery of valuable compounds, the utilization of process water, technological development including forwarding osmosis and pervaporation, real-time pollution monitoring, the advancement of existing pollution analysis techniques, the creation of customized new membranes and the development of membranes that can be used under extreme conditions. Decentralized treatment systems can be used in wastewater systems to reduce costs and promote sanitation and reuse [57, 58]. While the aerobic technique has been successful in terms of industrial application, there are some drawbacks, such as higher capital costs for aeration facilities, higher operational costs (especially for energy for pumps or aerators), higher maintenance requirements, and probably monitoring requirements for detecting dissolved oxygen levels in the liquid.
There are concerns that biodegradation by-products will be more persistent or more dangerous than the main pollutant.

Comparative evaluation of wastewater and bio-deaeration system for the treatment of acid mine runoff contaminated soils. Lecolate is often classified as acidic, alkaline or neutral, depending on the geochemistry of the mine tailings and the processing steps used in the mining process. The following sections examine current treatment options, with an emphasis on the passive treatment of acid mine leaching and alkaline industrial leaching.
A review of recent attempts to recover resources from these leachates will also be discussed before addressing future requirements for the treatment of acidic and alkaline leachates.
Treatment of acid mine leachates
- Neutralization
- Adsorption/biosorption
- Constructed wetlands
Passive treatment technologies also do not require continuous chemical inputs and are therefore more sustainable than active treatment processes; however, their ability to effectively treat mine waste streams in the long term is largely unknown [7]. Inflow of leachate from an adjacent alkaline waste repository gradually increased pH from <4 to 8, resulting in decreasing concentrations of Fe, Al, Co, Ni, and Zn in the lakes. However, the accumulation of metal-laden sediments in the lakes poses a long-term threat i.
For example, Fe, Al and Mn can form hydroxides through hydrolysis and/or oxidation which are deposited in the substrate. If pH changes rapidly, we can expect metal accumulation in the sediment at the inlet end of the CW, and conversely, if pH changes are slow, metal accumulation will be more diffuse. Root exudates and oxygen gradients in the sediment/substrate can facilitate different microbial communities, which can influence the oxidation state in the sediment and the partial pressures of CO2 or O2 in solution, affecting metal removal [28].
The long-term efficacy of CW to treat AMD is variable, and efficacy is determined by variables such as metal types and concentrations in the influent and effluent quality and quantity.
Treatment of alkaline leachates
Similar to AMD treatment, the use of CWs to treat alkaline leachate is an attractive long-term passive treatment option; although their longevity has shown to be effective in the short term (about 5 years), there is a lack of data to evaluate their long-term performance, especially with regard to metal concentrations and metal forms in the sediments [7]. Although there is so far no evidence of metal accumulation in the CW vegetation treating alkaline leachate [35, 36], the long-term risks are of metal saturation in the sediment and metal resolubilization due to pH changes with accompanying increase in treated effluent concentrations. must be assessed over a sustained period of time and under varying operating conditions to determine the long-term viability of CWs.

- Recycling of mine wastes
- Recycling of alkaline wastes
It has an advantage over other recycling processes in that it reduces the leaching potential of the waste by retaining approximately 90% of the metal content in the geopolymer matrix [39]. The viability of such processes depends on the economic value of the target metal to be recovered, as well as its relative concentration. The amounts of residue produced depend on the composition of the municipal solid waste and the type and efficiency of the incineration process; however, typical amounts, expressed as a percentage of the original waste mass on a wet basis, are 20-30% for bottom ash and screen screens, 10%.
For this reason, fly ash has a low reuse potential, for example in the cement industry. Similar to bottom ash, one of the main environmental difficulties with fly ash recycling is its leaching potential and consequently there is an emphasis on improving its quality so that it can be used in more sustainable applications. Coal-fired power plants are one of the main global sources of energy and currently contribute over 40% of energy production.
While some of these metals are weakened, at least in the short term, by the alkalinity of the fly ash, other oxyanionic species are released resulting in adverse environmental effects.
Conclusions
The use of bauxite residue as an additive to masonry material was also investigated. Passive treatment methods such as neutralization, adsorption/biosorption and constructed wetlands are considered to be some of the more promising techniques. These and other technologies, including hybrid solutions, require further research for long-term and sustainable treatment.
