Integration of negatively charged MWCNT-fGO self-assembled nanomaterials into PLA polymeric membranes for wastewater treatment

(Corresponding) Khalil H., Nassar L., Wadi V., Naddeo V., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
The integration of nanomaterials in membrane’s matrix aims to improve the membrane’s hydrophilicity, mechanical strength, thermal stability and water flux, which are vital membrane properties needed to active efficient removal of contaminants. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and...Read more

Synthesis of Fe3O4/Carbon Quantum Dots Hybrid for Efficient Removal of Congo Red Dye from Aqueous Solution

(Corresponding) Zourou A., Axarli V., Falara P., Ntziouni A., Kordatos K.
Topic: 
Water treatment
During the past decades, the release of toxic pollutants into aquatic environment has continuously increased due to rapid industrialization and civilization. The presence of organic dyes, such as Congo Red (CR), can be dangerous to both human and aquatic life. Therefore, their removal is an...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

Incorporation of negatively charged MWCNT-fGO self-assembled nanomaterials into PLA polymeric membranes for wastewater treatment

(Corresponding) Khalil H., Nassar L., Wadi V., Naddeo V., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
The incorporation of nanomaterials in membrane’s matrix aims mainly to improve the properties of the membranes such as hydrophilicity, mechanical strength, thermal stability, water flux. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and functionalized graphene oxide (fGO) have recently attracted attention...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
