  2. Hydrocyclone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocyclone

    Hydrocyclones are a type of cyclonic separators that separate product phases mainly on basis of differences in gravity with aqueous solutions as the primary feed fluid. As opposed to dry or dust cyclones, which separate solids from gasses, hydrocyclones separate solids or different phase fluids from the bulk fluid.

  3. Produced water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Produced_water

    A shale gas well being drilled by a drilling rig in Pennsylvania. Produced water is a term used in the oil industry or geothermal industry to describe water that is produced as a byproduct during the extraction of oil and natural gas, [1] or used as a medium for heat extraction.

  4. Industrial wastewater treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_wastewater...

    Brine treatment is commonly encountered when treating cooling tower blowdown, produced water from steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD), produced water from natural gas extraction such as coal seam gas, frac flowback water, acid mine or acid rock drainage, reverse osmosis reject, chlor-alkali wastewater, pulp and paper mill effluent, and waste ...

  5. Wastewater quality indicators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wastewater_quality_indicators

    Wastewater quality indicators are laboratory test methodologies to assess suitability of wastewater for disposal, treatment or reuse. The main parameters in sewage that are measured to assess the sewage strength or quality as well as treatment options include: solids, indicators of organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus, indicators of fecal ...

  6. Water testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_testing

    Water testing being conducted at a treatment facility in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. Water testing is a broad description for various procedures used to analyze water quality. Millions of water quality tests are carried out daily to fulfill regulatory requirements and to maintain safety. [1] Testing may be performed to evaluate:

  7. Cyclonic separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclonic_separation

    A high-speed rotating (air)flow is established within a cylindrical or conical container called a cyclone. Air flows in a helical pattern, beginning at the top (wide end) of the cyclone and ending at the bottom (narrow) end before exiting the cyclone in a straight stream through the center of the cyclone and out the top.

  8. Doubly labeled water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubly_labeled_water

    In practice, doses of doubly labeled water for metabolic work are prepared by simply mixing a dose of deuterium oxide (heavy water) (90 to 99%) with a second dose of H 2 18 O, which is water which has been separately enriched with 18 O (though usually not to a high level, since doing this would be expensive, and unnecessary for this use), but ...

  9. Analysis of water chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_water_chemistry

    Water chemistry analysis is often the groundwork of studies of water quality, pollution, hydrology and geothermal waters. Analytical methods routinely used can detect and measure all the natural elements and their inorganic compounds and a very wide range of organic chemical species using methods such as gas chromatography and mass spectrometry .
