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

Magnetic CoFe2O4@carbon yolk-shell nanoparticles as catalysts for the catalytic wet peroxide of paracetamol

Silva A., Costa Guari N., Diaz de Tuesta J., Eno Pottker W., Yassue Cordeiro P., (Corresponding) Gomes H.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
This work focuses the use of carbon-coated magnetic cobalt ferrite nanoparticles as catalysts for catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) of the emerging pollutant paracetamol. A magnetic core composed of CoFe2O4 is developed by a sol-gel method. The core is subsequently coated with a formaldehyde-...Read more

Degradation of cytostatic drugs in water by ozonation

(Corresponding) Garcia-Costa A., Gouveia T., Pereira M., Silva A., Alves A., Madeira L., Santos M.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
This work presents the degradation of five cytostatics found in Portuguese WWTP effluents: bicalutamide (BICA), capecitabine (CAP), cyclophosphamide (CYC), ifosfamide (IFO) and mycophenolic acid (MPA) using non-catalytic ozonation. Experiments were performed with 1 µM of each cytostatic at pH: 7.3...Read more
