Water Pollution in Wood-Based Industries in Thailand: Case Study of a Hardboard Factory
A study of waste water characteristics from a hardboard factory was conducted in order to determine and identify the appropriateness of the waste water treatment process. The factory uses a combination of treatment processes such as the sedimentation, anaerobic and aerated process. Grab samples were...
