“…The main advantage of using RSM for designing experiments is that it allows us to study interactions among different variables and optimize the specified response with a limited number of planned experiments [11]. It has been used to optimize electrocoagulation process with drinking water using a new flow column electrocoagulation reactor [12], chicken processing industry wastewater [13], palm oil mill effluent [14], raw landfill leachate [15], and molasses wastewater [16].…”

“…For the distillery wastewaters with other types of feedstock, such as the cassava-based ethanol wastewater, the composition and features of refractory colorants have not been well understood, and more efforts are required to address this. Thus, advanced techniques are strongly required to eliminate the organic matter and colorants from the biologically treated distillery wastewater, which has been increasingly recognized as a tough challenge (Arimi et al, 2014;Tsioptsias et al, 2015). Coagulation, adsorption, and oxidation processes are possible post-treatment technologies following the biological processes (Arimi et al, 2015a(Arimi et al, , 2015bLiang et al, 2009;.…”

“…Lactic acid can also be used as a raw material for production of lactate esters, propylene glycol, 2,3-pentanedione, propanoic acid, acrylic acid, acetaldehyde, and dilactide in chemical industries [2][3][4]. The current demand on lactic acid has increased considerably due to its use as a monomer in the production of polylactic acid (PLA), which is a promising biodegradable, biocompatible, and environmentally friendly alternative to plastics associated with product formation [14] [15]. Therefore the further purification of molasses is recommended, but may increase the fermentation costs due to complex raw material pretreatment [16].…”
