The use of biochar from waste wooden biomass for removal of emerging pollutants
(Corresponding) Žgajnar Gotvajn A., Carvalho A., Marinšek M., Kalčikova G.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Biochar can be produced usig variety of waste biomass to achieve goals of zero waste management and circular economy. It has been used as adsorbent in the past for water and wastewater treatment. Recetly, the application of natural porous materials for removal of emerging pollutants gained a lot of...Read more
Kinetics study of the MO adsorption and photocatalytic degradation using an effectively engineered HF photocatalyst
(Corresponding) Theodorakopoulos G., Katsaros F., Papageorgiou S., Romanos G.
Topic:
Water treatment
In this study, copper decorated photocatalysts (Degussa P25), were shaped in the form of ceramic hollow fibers (HFs) and their photocatalytic properties were investigated using Methyl Orange (MO), a prototype anionic pollutant. The abatement of the dye was tested in dark and under UV irradiation by...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
