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
Quantitative target screening and soil bioavailability assessment as tools to assess risks associated with wastewater reuse for irrigation
Beretsou V., Nika M., Manoli K., Lundy L., Thomaidis N., Revitt M., (Corresponding) Fatta-Kassinos D.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
Multi-residue analysis of various classes of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) present in wastewater, along with improvements in analytical methodologies, may allow for future application of promising wastewater tracers, thus providing wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) operators and...Read more

Current challenges and future perspectives on the use of contaminant data from apex predators for chemicals hazard prioritization
(Corresponding) Bauer K., Alygizakis N., Badry A., Cincinelli A., Claßen D., Dekker R., Drost W., Duke G., Glowacka N., Gkotsis G., Knopf B., Koschorreck J., Martellini T., Movalli P., Nika M., Nikolopoulou V., Rüdel H., Thomaidis N., Walker L., Treu G., Slobodnik J.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
One major challenge in today’s generic risk assessment is, that only a small fraction of the marketed chemicals has been sufficiently evaluated regarding their (eco)toxicological properties or exposure scenarios, while limited data are available for the majority of substances. For instance, many of...Read more
