Arsenic Removal Using Electrocoagulation Process
Vaiyakone P., (Corresponding) Soriano R., Morales-Corpuz V., (Corresponding) De Sales-Papa L., Ballesteros F.
Topic:
Water treatment
Contamination of water resources with Arsenic poses serious health concerns because of its toxic and carcinogenic nature. Detection of Arsenic at concentrations higher than 10 parts per billion (ppb) in some Philippine water resources confirmed the need for further studies on the contamination and...Read more

Arsenic Removal, Water Contamination, Electrocoagulation
This study investigated the removal of arsenite (As(III)) and arsenate (As(V)) in aqueous solution using iron-coated pomelo peel (ICPP). Batch adsorption experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of initial pH values (2.0–10), contact time (1–1440 minutes), initial concentration (0.05–5 mg...Read more

Effect of plant species on the performance of vegetated buffer strips to treat agricultural runoffs
(Corresponding) Markoulatou E., Fountoulakis M.
Topic:
Water treatment
Vegetated buffer strips (VBS), have been recognized as the most common management practice for mitigating pollution caused by agricultural runoff. They serve a transitional zone between agricultural fields and receiving waters. In this study, two VBS planted with aromatic plants and one unvegetated...Read more
