Activated carbon-polyethyleneimine-alginate composite fiber for scavenging pharmaceuticals with different charges from aqueous solutions

Dangi Y., Choi J., Lim C., Song M., Han M., Lin X., (Corresponding) Yun Y.
Topic: 
Water treatment
Activated carbon (AC) is a potential adsorbent for water purification, though it is difficult to separate after use. To solve this problem, for the first time, the ternary composite fiber (ACPEIA) of AC, polyethyleneimine (PEI), and alginate (A) was fabricated as a multifunctional adsorbent for...Read more

Valorization of olive stone by-product as Fenton-like catalysts for olive mill wastewater treatment

(Corresponding) Esteves B., Morales-Torres S., Maldonado-Hódar F., Madeira L.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
The olive oil industry is responsible for the generation of highly-loaded and complex effluents (olive mill wastewaters, OMW) that pose several environmental threats. In particular, OMW’s polyphenolic fraction is known for its recalcitrant behavior and phytotoxic properties (McNamara et al., 2008...Read more

Application of solar photo-Fenton oxidation coupled with granular activated carbon as a viable option for the removal of contaminants of emerging concern in the urban wastewater of India

Karaolia P., Korelidou A., (Corresponding) Fatta-Kassinos D.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
It has been estimated that approximately 62 billion litres of sewage are generated every day in India, with only 37% of sewage being treated (Saxena et al., 2021). Wastewater treatment issues such as dysfunctional UWTPs with many of them operating at low service levels compared to the design...Read more
