Removal of PFAS from wastewater by bio-waste adsorbent: material characterization and adsorption kinetic study

(Corresponding) Bavasso I., Bracciale M., Sbardella F., Di Palma L., Marco S.
Topic: 
Emerging pollutants
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are considered emerging contaminants and have been increased their attention due to their distribution in water body. These compounds are acid and characterized by a thermal stability to make them resistant to degradation processes. Activities such as...Read more

Aloe Vera waste for Methylene Blue (MB), Rhodamine B (RB) and Methyl Orange (MO) adsorption.

(Corresponding) Mazzeo L., Bavasso I., Di Palma L.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis miller) waste obtained from a local cosmetic production factory was used as bio-adsorbent for the removal of three different dyes: Methylene Blue (MB), Rhodamine B (RB) and Methyl Orange (MO). The material was preliminary washed with water at room temperature. Batch...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

Valorization of waste graphite deriving from "End Of Life Lithium-Ion Battery recycling" for a second use in wastewater treatment.

(Corresponding) Premathilake D., (Corresponding) Vaccari M., Botelho Junior A., Tenório J., Espinosa D., Colombi F.
Topic: 
Recycling of materials to new products
Exponential utilization of Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) has produced a notable amount of hazardous waste recently. The current practices focus on recovering precious metals available in cathode giving less priority for anode material (graphite) recoveries and valorizations. However, thinning of...Read more
