Incorporation of negatively charged MWCNT-fGO self-assembled nanomaterials into PLA polymeric membranes for wastewater treatment
(Corresponding) Khalil H., Nassar L., Wadi V., Naddeo V., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The incorporation of nanomaterials in membrane’s matrix aims mainly to improve the properties of the membranes such as hydrophilicity, mechanical strength, thermal stability, water flux. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and functionalized graphene oxide (fGO) have recently attracted attention...Read more
On the Fenton oxidation of polystyrene microplastics
(Corresponding) Munoz M., Ortiz D., Nieto-Sandoval J., Romera-Castillo C., de Pedro Z., Casas J.
Topic:
Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies
This work aims at evaluating the fate of polystyrene (PS) microplastics along Fenton oxidation. Experiments were carried out under relatively severe operating conditions (80 ºC) given the high persistence of these solids to oxidation. Slight mass losses (up to 10%) were found after the Fenton...Read more

Continuous flow hydrodechlorination for micropollutants removal using an innovative Pd-based Catalytic Membrane Reactor
(Corresponding) Nieto-Sandoval J., Gomez-Herrero E., Munoz M., de Pedro Z., Casas J.
Topic:
Water treatment
The aim of this work is to develop a Pd-based Catalytic Membrane Reactor (Pd/CMR) for its application in organochlorinated micropollutants removal by hydrodechlorination (HDC). The external surface of a Al2O3 membrane was homogeneously decorated by Pd nanoparticles (0.2% wt.). The Pd/CMR developed...Read more
PFAS removal performance of novel technologies for treatment of firefighting water and groundwater
(Corresponding) Hjort M., Dalmijn J., Roest K., ter Laak T., Vaiopoulou E.
Topic:
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of widely used man-made organic chemical substances. PFAS have been used because of their particular physicochemical properties: most are stable at high temperatures, recalcitrant to chemical oxidation and biological degradation, and act as a...Read more
Application of catalytic hydrodehalogenation for the removal of brominated flame retardants
Nieto-Sandoval J., (Corresponding) Benito del Olmo R., Munoz M., De Pedro Z., Casas J.
Topic:
Water treatment
The aim of this work is to evaluate the feasibility of aqueous-phase catalytic hydrodehalogenation (HDH) for the fast and environmentally-friendly degradation of the flame retardant tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA). TBBPA is a pollutant of emerging concern characterized by a strong persistence that...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

Nanoplastics mineralization by the intensified photo-Fenton process
(Corresponding) Ortiz D., Munoz M., Carbajo J., M. de Pedro Z., Casas J.
Topic:
Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies
The widespread presence of microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) in aquatic systems has become one of the most challenging environmental issues nowadays. Although advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been widely studied for the treatment of persistent contaminants in water, their...Read more

Fostering the non-conventional water re-use in agriculture in Mediterranean countries: the MENAWARA project
(Corresponding) Carletti A., Paulotto A., Khadra R., Martin I., Fahd K., Salas J., Arbasi T., Pedron G., Jaouadi T., Chaabouni T., Mazahrih N.
Topic:
Sustainable water management in the mediterranean – technological solutions, demonstration and deployment
The Mediterranean region is considered as one of the world’s most water-stressed areas where some countries have less than 1000 m3 capita-1 year-1. This situation, exacerbated by climate change, is due to, but not restricted to, the relatively uneven distribution of precipitation, high temperatures...Read more

Exploring the Living Lab approach for developing sustainable wastewater treatment and reuse systems in Mediterranean agriculture
(Corresponding) Khadra R., Dragonetti G., Paulotto A., Martin I., Arbasi T., Jaouadi T., Mazahreh N., Balawneh A., Carletti A.
Topic:
Sustainable water management in the mediterranean – technological solutions, demonstration and deployment
In the water-poor Mediterranean region, people have always had to cope with scarcity, developing adaptation strategies to meet their essential needs. However, the adaptation capacities in place are put to the test by climate change, unsustainable water use and wastage, contributing to the depletion...Read more
