Brief Description
Description : | (A)Lab scale prototype of technology has been designed and developed which includes 100 L reactor, 150 L sedimentation tank, 100 L sand filter, 750 L feed tank, 750 L treated water tank. (B)Comparative LCA analysis of EC with adsorption technique has also been performed and found EC has very less environmental impacts than other existing technologies. (C)The catalytic property of the spent material for enriching valuables in pyrolysis oil has been tested. |
