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

Photocatalytic elimination of water pollutants using innovative titania thin film heterostructures embedding carbon quantum dots

(Corresponding) Falara P., Zourou A., Ibrahim I., (Corresponding) Kordatos K.
Topic: 
Water treatment
Titanium dioxide based photocatalysis is a well-established advanced oxidation process (AOP) that recently has expanded its borders comprising advanced reduction processes (ARPs) as well. To enhance the photocatalytic activity, titania heterostructures embedding semiconductors, or clays, or...Read more

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

Wetting study of PVDF - carbon nanodiscs membranes for water treatment applications via membrane distillation

(Corresponding) Tournis I., Panagiotaki K., Sideratou Z., Kouvelos E., (Corresponding) Sapalidis A.
Topic: 
Water treatment
Since 80’s, membrane distillation has been identified as a promising water treatment process in various wastewater treatments, such as desalination brine, textile, radioactive and oily wastewater.[1] The demand for membranes with stable flux and prolonged lifespan especially in challenging...Read more
