Comparative analysis of chlorinated intermediates formed during electrochemical and photo(electro)catalytic degradation of 4-Ethylphenol in saline media
(Corresponding) Brüninghoff R., van Duijne A., Braakhuis L., Saha P., Jeremiasse A., Mei B., (Corresponding) Mul G.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Formation of toxic by-products, such as chlorinated intermediates, is one of the major drawbacks of advanced oxidation processes for saline wastewater treatment. Here a comparative analysis of electrochemical oxidation and photocatalytic degradation of 4-Ethylphenol, a non-chlorinated starting...Read more
IN-SITU REMOVAL OF ANTIBIOTICS IN SOIL BY COLD PLASMA
(Corresponding) Aggelopoulos C., Hatzisymeon M., Tataraki D., Rassias G.
Topic:
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Antibiotics are extensively used in clinical settings to treat or prevent human diseases, in veterinary science for farm and domestic animal health and in agriculture for crop protection. Due to their incomplete biological degradation, human and animal antibiotics are released through discharges...Read more
New evidence of accelerated elimination of an emergent water pollutant by TiO2 assisted photo-oxidation
(Corresponding) FAVIER L., LASLAU A., SIMION A., SESCU A., HARJA M., RUSU L.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Over the past few years, the presence of the pharmaceuticals and their metabolites in the aquatic environment has become an important public health issue. These molecules are generally released in the aquatic ecosystem through the effluents of conventional wastewater treatment plants which were not...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
Photocatalytic Degradation Of Aldrin Under The Influence Via Ozonation In The Presence Of Ag2o/Smfeo3 Under Visible Light
Immandhi A., (Corresponding) Maddila S., Jonnalagadda S.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
The photocatalytic degradation of aldrin, a hugely toxic and commonly used pesticide was studied using Ag doped SmFeO3 as a heterogenous catalyst under ozonation reaction. Various photocatalytic nano particles were prepared with varied dopant percentage (1%, 2.5% and 5%) which were characterised...Read more
Application of KO2/ClO- advanced oxidation process to degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons on example of phenanthrene
(Corresponding) Nowakowski M., Andrzejewski P., Wolski R.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Novel advanced oxidation process based on KO2 and ClO- was applied to degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. It is a wide group of compounds which are negative impact on human health. Phenanthrene was chosen to represent this group of compounds due to its relatively good solubility in...Read more
