New pillared clays for the removal of pollutants from wastewater by treatment with oxidation processes

(Corresponding) Kalmakhanova M., Massalimova B., Diaz de Tuesta J., Gomes H.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
The constant development of technological processes aggravates the problem of pollution, due to a significant change in the composition of effluents that makes necessary the development of new (and/or improvement of the existing) treatment methods and catalytic materials. In this sense, the use of...Read more

Degradation of textile dyes in water by gas-liquid NSP-DBD plasma

MEROPOULIS S., (Corresponding) AGGELOPOULOS C.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
Textile dyes represent some of the most complicated environmental pollutants due to their variety and complex structure. Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is regarded as a highly competitive advanced oxidation process towards the removal of organic pollutants from wastewater. In this study, a gas-...Read more

Application of carbon-based catalysts derived from compost on catalytic wet peroxide oxidation of leachate waters from mechanical and biological treatment plant units for municipal solid waste

Batista G., (Corresponding) Roman F., Diaz de Tuesta J., Mambrini R., Gomes H.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
This work aims at the valorization of compost from mechanical and biological treatment (MBT) units of municipal solid waste by their transformation into carbon-based catalysts for further application in the treatment of MBT leachate waters (chemical oxygen demand (COD) = 60.0 g L-1, total organic...Read more

Preliminary Research on Removal of Organic Substances Contained in Wastewater from Plastic Lenses Production

(Corresponding) Umiejewska K., Różycki M.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
More than 80 percent of all eyeglasses worn today have plastic lenses. Plastic lenses made of polycarbonate discs are created through the process of machining which requires the use of a coolant. During the production process, the rotating disc and blade are poured with a mixture of water and...Read more

SELECTED APPLICATIONS of CAVITATION BASED ADVANCED OXIDATION PROCESSES (AOPs) for TREATMENT of WATER and INDUSTRIAL EFFUENTS

Fedorov K., Cako E., (Corresponding) Boczkaj G.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
Cavitation phenomenon was effectively applied for enhancement of Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) effectiveness. Main applications are focused on treatment of water as well as industrial effluents [1-2]. Cavitation phenomenon can be generated in the liquid by intentionally formed differences in...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

Application of solar photo-Fenton oxidation coupled with granular activated carbon as a viable option for the removal of contaminants of emerging concern in the urban wastewater of India

Karaolia P., Korelidou A., (Corresponding) Fatta-Kassinos D.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
It has been estimated that approximately 62 billion litres of sewage are generated every day in India, with only 37% of sewage being treated (Saxena et al., 2021). Wastewater treatment issues such as dysfunctional UWTPs with many of them operating at low service levels compared to the design...Read more

Magnetite-decorated catalytic membrane reactor for the continuous-flow CWPO of micropollutants

(Corresponding) López-Aragó N., Nieto-Sandoval J., Munoz M., de Pedro Z., Casas J.
Topic: 
Advanced oxidation processes
This work aims at developing a contactor type Catalytic Membrane Reactor (CMR) for its application in the continuous removal of micropollutants by Catalytic Wet Peroxide Oxidation (CWPO). For such goal, a porous alumina membrane tube was homogeneously decorated with magnetite nanoparticles...Read more
