    The investigation of Odor Producing Factors in Kish Island Refineries and Sewage Collection System

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Jamali, Hamid Reza (Author) ; Hashemian, Jamal (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    From the main factors causing an unpleasant odor can refer to indoles, askatels, mercaptans, some volatile organic compounds, sulfide hydrogen, ammonia, and the number of odor-causing compounds, which are also found in the wastewater facilities and sometimes produce unpleasant odors. Meanwhile, ammonia (Pungent and irritating odor) and sulfide hydrogen (colorless poisonous gas with the odor of rotten eggs) can be presented as major factors in sewage odor.
    Several factors are involved in the foul-smelling hydrogen sulfide gas collection system and wastewater treatment. A few of them include numerous sewage pumping stations, selected the appropriate gradient in the collection system,...

    Abstract
    The anionic surfactant linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) is a major chemical constituent of detergent formulation. Regarding the recalcitrant nature of sulfonoaromatic compounds, discharging these substances into wastewater collection systems is a real environmental issue. A study on LAS biodegradation based on bioelectrochemical treatment and in the form of developing a single-chamber microbial fuel cell with air cathode is reported in the present work. Pretreatment study showed LAS concentration of 60 ppm resulted in the highest anaerobic LAS removal of 57%; so, this concentration was chosen to run the MFC. After the sustained anodic biofilm was formed, LAS degradation rate during 4 days...
