Topic:
Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies
The presence of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in aquatic environment represents the risk due to potential adverse effects on both human health and the environment. The term CECs does not only apply to chemical contaminants but to the microplastics (MPs) as well. As MP may interact with...Read more

Topic:
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
Heavy metal pollution caused by industrial operations is a global environmental issue. Chromium, used in chrome plating, textile dyeing, wood preservation, and metal fnishing, is classifed as a highly toxic agent to humans and other living organisms. To minimize health risks, these contaminant...Read more
Adsorption-desorption of methylene blue dye onto marine sediments: Kinetics and equilibrium studies
(Corresponding) Vagi M., Leventelli M., Petsas A.
Topic:
Environmental pollution
The present study concerns the investigation of the sorption and desorption phenomena of methylene blue (MB), which is an organic molecule used as a synthetic dye in several industries. For that purpose, the batch equilibrium technique was applied by using three marine sediments that were...Read more
