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
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
