The phosphate mining basin of Gafsa is part of the south-western dry area of Tunisia. It covers 3250 km2, representing 42% of the entire governorate of Gafsa area and 38% of its total population. The area is characterised by water resources scarcity as well as high variability of rainfall. The water

Performances of solar photocatalytic pilot plant using TiO2-P25 (Degussa) were investigated for removal of commercial azo dye chosen as model compound. Experiments were carried out to optimize various parameters, influencing the performance of the operated thin-film fixed-bed reactor (TFFBR) with an

Jebel Chekir landfill leachate (Tunisia) treatment was carried out using an aerobic pilot unit with three immersed and fixed biofilms reactors. A preliminary analyses indicate a high biodegradable fraction in the leachate (BOD5 / COD = 0.4), which implies that biological treatment process can be app
