Use of residues from Eucalyptus Globulus as biosorbents for cadmium removal

(Corresponding) Hansen H., Gutierrez C., Alarcon J., Lazo A., Hansen M., Lazo P., Ortiz R.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

The present work studied the removal of cadmium from aqueous solutions by a series of batch sorption experiments using Eucalyptus Globulus bark and seeds as biosorbents. Both biosorbents showed good results in cadmium removal. The best results were obtained when working with a particle size < 75...Read more

Development and Application of a novel anaerobic/aerobic/anoxic process in municipal wastewater treatment utilizing intracellular carbon sources

Gao X., (Corresponding) Peng Y.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) face a significant challenge in controlling treatment costs while meeting increasingly stringent wastewater discharge standards. To address this challenge, A novel anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic (AOA) process has been proposed. In this study, long-term...Read more

Sustainable and Cost-effective Approach for Treatment of Plating Industrial Wastewater Effluents

(Corresponding) Boguniewicz-Zablocka J., Naddeo V., (Corresponding) Corpuz M.

Topic:

Heavy metals in the environment

The wastewater resulting from the plating industry contains high contents of toxic metals, such as chromium, which is a serious threat to the environment due to its cumulative effects and non-degradability. Several methods have been actively investigated to remove heavy metal ions from aqueous...Read more

Technologies for the Removal of Microplastics from Wastewater: A Short Review

(Corresponding) Corpuz M., Buonerba A., Napodano P., Hasan S., Choo K., Zarra T., Belgiorno V., Naddeo V.

Topic:

Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies

One of the major routes of microplastics (MPs) to the environment is through the wastewater treatment plants’ (WWTPs) discharge to water bodies. Due to their dimensions (< 5mm), MPs tend to be ingested by aquatic species, and eventually, may cause adverse impacts on the environment and to human...Read more
