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
Electrochemical Treatment of Landfill Leachate under Cold Climate Conditions
(Corresponding) Ambauen N., Meyn T., Hallé C., Muff J.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
This study shows that electrochemical oxidation of landfill leachate (LL) is significantly affected by cold temperatures prevailing in Nordic climate areas. As hypothesized, the degradation of common wastewater parameters (TOC, COD) exhibited lower efficiency when low average temperature (13°C) was...Read more

The Effect of Different Parameters on Electrochemical Removal of Ampicillin Using New Generation Sn/Sb/Ni-Ti Anodes
(Corresponding) Kurt A., (Corresponding) Yonar T., Shakir F., Helvacıoğlu H., Neşelen E.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
In this study, it was aimed to investigate the feasibility of new generation and stable Sn/Sb/Ni-Ti anodes for treatment of wastewater containing Ampicillin (AMP) antibiotic by electrochemical oxidation processes. Ampicillin concentration was 0.05 g L-1 in the aqueous solution. Residual ampicillin...Read more

Fluoride-free Anodization of Titanium and the Photocatalytic Behaviour the Produced TiO2 Nanostructures
Taylor C., (Corresponding) Wenk J., Mattia D.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Current methods for anodizing titania to produce immobilized titanium dioxide (TiO2) photocatalyst require the use of hazardous fluoride electrolytes. A fluoride-free electrolyte anodization method was developed. The electrolytes tested in this study were both bromide- and chloride-based and...Read more
Wastewater treatment and emerging contaminants removal in electro membrane bioreactor using self-forming dynamic membranes
(Corresponding) CASTROGIOVANNI F., BOREA L., Millanar-Marfa J., Napodano P., Balakrishnan M., Ballesteros F., Hasan S., Belgiorno V., Naddeo V.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
In recent years, the technical-scientific community has been paying increasing attention to the presence of emerging contaminants that are intercepted in surface water and wastewater since these compounds could have harmful effects on human health and on environment too.
Conventional wastewater...Read more

Effect of current density value and current application period on the wastewater treatment performance of Electrochemically Enhanced Self-Forming Dynamic Membrane Bioreactors (e-SFDMBRs)
(Corresponding) Almalvez J., Morales-Corpuz M., Borea L., Castrogiovanni F., Napodano P., Belgiorno V., Naddeo V., Ballesteros F.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The use of membrane reactor in wastewater treatment gained interest for the past years due to its high-quality effluent. However, expensive membranes and high operational costs due to membrane fouling limit the wide application of this process. Research on fouling control by combining membrane use...Read more
Pilot-scale membrane bioreactor for wastewater treatment using innovative encapsulated self-forming dynamic membrane
Castrogiovanni F., Borea L., HASAN S., Belgiorno V., (Corresponding) Naddeo V.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The use of membrane bioreactors (MBR) is a promising technique for wastewater treatment that manages to respect the restrictive limits imposed by regulations.
However, during the filtration process membranes are subject to fouling which requires additional costs for cleaning and replacing the...Read more

Degradation of refractory compounds in industrial wastewaters by advanced technologies based on electrochemical and photochemical oxidation
Petsi P., Sarasidis V., (Corresponding) Plakas K., Karabelas A.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Results are presented of a systematic experimental investigation aiming to eliminate refractory organics from industrial effluents, of high and non-biodegradable organic load, by two Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs). Bench scale experiments were performed with real wastewater samples collected...Read more
Electro-bioremediation of nitrate contaminated saline groundwater
(Corresponding) Puggioni G., Carucci A., Dessì E., Pous N., Puig S., Unali V., Milia S.
Topic:
Water treatment
Sustainable exploitation of coastal aquifers is often hindered by the presence of contaminants and high salinity levels. This study proves for the first time the electro-bioremediation of nitrate contaminated saline groundwater. Two 3-chamber bioelectrochemical systems (BES) were operated in...Read more
Electrified membranes for microplastic fouling mitigation
Ouda M., Banat F., Naddeo V., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic:
Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies
The excessive use of plastics has created a route for microplastics into our water and wastewater treatment plants. Coupled with the on-going water crises, this creates a threat to fresh water availability as microplastics disrupt the operation of these plants. Microplastics result in severe...Read more
