Photocatalytic nanofiltration reactor for agricultural wastewater purification and reuse
Theodorakopulos G., Arfanis M., Agüera A., Cadena Aponte F., Sánchez Pérez J., Markellou E., Romanos G., (Corresponding) Falaras P.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
In recent years, the Agrofood industry utilizes pesticides for improving the agricultural production. Nevertheless, the presence of pesticide residues in agricultural wastewater can cause adverse impact on water resources and have harmful effects on human health. Consequently, intensive actions are...Read more
Evaluation of solid sorbents for acid flue gas emissions treatment
(Corresponding) Ravina M., Cerutti A., Marotta E., Zanetti G., Panepinto D., Ruffino B., Zanetti M.
Topic:
Air pollution
Removal of acid gases from exhaust emissions of industrial applications (SOx, HCl, HF) still represents a challenge for many sectors, in particular for waste to energy facilities. In dry absorption processes, the solid reagent (typically Ca(OH)2 or NaHCO3) is injected countercurrent to the gas in a...Read more

Optimization of wastewater treatment by integration of artificial intelligence techniques: recent progress and future perspectives
(Corresponding) Cairone S., Hasan S., Zarra T., Belgiorno V., Naddeo V.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Artificial intelligence (AI) is proving useful in optimizing the process efficiency in many sectors, including wastewater treatment. The complexity of wastewater characteristics and treatment technologies leads to uncertainties and variability in the efficiency of the processes in wastewater...Read more
Advancements, Design, and Improvement Strategies for Modern-era Membranes for the Treatment of Wastewater
(Corresponding) Khan N., (Corresponding) Santos ., Afzal K., Simranjeet S.
Topic:
Water management in arid communities/places
Membranes are widely used in industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and wastewater treatment plants, among others, to purify and recycle water, separate dissolved substances from the environment, such as organic and inorganic contaminants, and recover valuable materials...Read more
OTAER biotechnology: a new pathway of reaching the Zero Net Carbon in Odours Treatment
(Corresponding) Romano F., Mariniello A., Oliva G., Naddeo V., Belgiorno V., Zarra T.
Topic:
Sustainability & the SDGs
Emissions of odours into ambient air represent a serious problem and cause for conflict, due to the effects they cause on the population and on the exposed environment. Their treatment is therefore a priority. The approach currently pursued by the conventional odour treatment technologies is...Read more
Evaluation of a new technology for increasing the quality of a compost
Mori De Olivera C., Sammito A., Boano M., Fischetti M., Toso L., Pizio R., Bellopede R., (Corresponding) Marini P.
Topic:
Sustainable production and management of biomass
Composting is a treatment process that transforms biodegradable organic waste into compost, a product that is rich in essential nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium) and can be used as a fertilizer for the cultivation of agricultural land. By decreasing landfill disposal and avoiding...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
Keywords:
Wastewater treatment, Advanced nutrient removal, Anaerobic/aerobic/anoxic, Energy Saving, Endogenous denitrification
One-stage and multistage anoxic/oxic systems based on continuous plug-flow anammox process for mature landfill leachate treatment
Ren S., (Corresponding) Peng Y.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
As a promising biotechnology, the anammox process has been increasingly investigated for landfill leachate treatment. However, its application has been limited by the long generation time of anammox bacteria (AnAOB) and insufficient nitrite supply in actual projects. To overcome these obstacles,...Read more
Oxic-Settling-Anaerobic under intermittent aeration: effect on system performance, sludge minimization and greenhouse gas emissions
Dı Trapanı D., Cosenza A., (Corresponding) Bosco Mofatto P., Mannina G.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The paper presents the results of an experimental study carried out on a pilot scale activated sludge system operated under intermittent aeration and fed with real wastewater at the Water Resource Recovery Facility of Palermo University (Italy). The experimental campaign was divided into two...Read more
Application of KO2/ClO- advanced oxidation process to degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons on example of phenanthrene
(Corresponding) Nowakowski M., Andrzejewski P., Wolski R.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Novel advanced oxidation process based on KO2 and ClO- was applied to degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. It is a wide group of compounds which are negative impact on human health. Phenanthrene was chosen to represent this group of compounds due to its relatively good solubility in...Read more
