A very great quantity of phosphate present in wastewater, may reach the aquatic environment, and can lead to the pollution of the environment. The phosphate must be removed from domestic and industrial effluents before their dispersion and dilution in the environment. The aim of this paper was to in

We studied the effect of water hardness, temperature and the nature of walls on CaCO3 heterogeneous nucleation, which is the main condition of scale. The probability of CaCO3 heterogeneous precipitation increased for weak water hardness and weak temperatures. The wall nature did not influence the pr

Cecarbonation is considered in the context of research on the prevention of scaling. To apply it to the geothermal waters of Chott El Fejjej in El Hamma (Gabes, Tunisia), we examined water characteristics having a high permanent calcic hardness (100°F) accelerating the scaling and a high temperature

The desalination unit UTAIM using the solar multiple condensation evaporation cycle principle (SMCEC) is confronted with the problem of heat-exchange surface plugging by dihydrate calcium sulphate. The aim of this work is the prevention of this scale problem by using chemical inhibitors. The kinetic
