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
Ciprofloxacin and sulfamethoxazole biotransformation products in anaerobic packed bed biofilm reactor applied to the sanitary sewage treatment
(Corresponding) Carneiro R., Sabatini C., Titato G., Ferreira T., Zaiat M., Santos-Neto Á.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
The presence of antibiotics in the environment has received a lot of attention in recent years due to their ability to promote and spread antimicrobial resistance. In this work, the biodegradation of the antibiotics ciprofloxacin (CIP) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX), as well as the concurrently...Read more
