Valorisation of polyolefins into magnetic carbon nanotubes: application as catalysts in wet peroxide oxidation of paracetamol
Sanches L., (Corresponding) dos Santos Silva A., Fontana Roman F., Diaz de Tuesta Triviño J., Alves da Silva F., Gomes H.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
This work deals with the application of magnetic carbon nanotubes (MCNTs) in the catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) of paracetamol (PCM), a pharmaceutical compound selected as model contaminant of emerging concern (CEC). MCNTs were synthetized by catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD) at...Read more
Carbon nanotubes synthesized from LDPE for application in wet peroxide oxidation of paracetamol
(Corresponding) Roman F., Marim Lopes J., Diaz de Tuesta J., Lenzi G., Tavares da Silva A., Faria J., Gomes H.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were produced by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) considering low-density polyethylene (LDPE) as a carbon source and as an alternative to upcycle plastic solid waste. The CNTs were synthesized over bimetallic catalysts (Ni and Fe) supported on Al2O3 and purified with H2SO4 to...Read more
Selective denitrification of lipophilic pollutants from oily wastewater by peroxidation using Janus-structured amphiphilic carbon nanotubes as catalysts
Sanches F., Roman F., Silva A., Diaz de Tuesta J., Marin P., Machado B., Serp P., Silva A., (Corresponding) Gomes H.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were tested as catalysts in the selective denitrification of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) from oily wastewater by catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO). The CNTs were prepared by chemical vapor deposition, feeding sequentially ethylene (E) and/or acetonitrile (A) during different...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
APPLICABILITY OF SULFATE RADICAL BASED ADVANCED OXIDATION PROCESSES FOR DRINKING WATER TREATMENT
(Corresponding) Dilsizoğlu Akyol N., Ölmez Hancı T.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Natural Organic Matter (NOM) is a complex mixture of organic compounds that are naturally present in water sources. NOM itself is not toxic, but its presence can have negative impacts on the quality of drinking water. It is important to remove NOM from drinking water sources through various...Read more
