Degradation of textile dyes in water by gas-liquid NSP-DBD plasma
MEROPOULIS S., (Corresponding) AGGELOPOULOS C.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Textile dyes represent some of the most complicated environmental pollutants due to their variety and complex structure. Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is regarded as a highly competitive advanced oxidation process towards the removal of organic pollutants from wastewater. In this study, a gas-...Read more
Comparison between plasma microbubbles and gas-liquid dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma for pollutants degradation in water
Meropoulis S., (Corresponding) Aggelopoulos C.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
This study's main emphasis is the direct comparison between gas-liquid dielectric barrier discharge (GLDBD) and plasma microbubbles (PMB) concerning the kinetics related to the contaminant’s destruction and plasma-activated water composition. As contaminants with different structures,...Read more
Destruction of Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in water by cold atmospheric plasma
Papalexopoulou K., Ronen A., (Corresponding) Aggelopoulos C.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Cold atmospheric plasma was investigated as for the remediation of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) contaminated water. The destruction of the highly toxic PFOA is a challenging task since it is a persistent and bioaccumulative chemical causing pollution in waterbodies. In this study, plasma...Read more

Comparative analysis of two microalgae-bacterial symbiotic association growth in papermill effluent enriched through food waste digestate
Talapatra K., (Corresponding) Ghosh U.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
New treatment methods are needed to better recycle waste towards the circular economy. Microalgae can be used as an asset to treat effluent and simultaneously produce biofuel. This paper aims to evaluate the growth of microalgae-bacterial symbiotic association in papermill effluent enriched through...Read more
