Method Development for the Determination of Heavy Metals such as Copper, Iron, Manganese and Zinc in Aluminium Alloys by ICP-OES, based on wastewater analysis method
Gkogkaki V., Karageorgis A., (Corresponding) Pantazis K.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The determination of Heavy Metals such as Copper, Iron, Manganese and Zinc in Aluminium Alloys is usually achieved following ASTM E3061-17 Method. Alternatively, for time and cost saving, the laboratory’s ΕΝ ISO 11885:2009 method for wastewater analysis was appropriately modified producing...Read more

Topic:
Wastewater treatment
In this study, novel polyethersulfone (PES) alpha-zirconium (α-ZrP) ion exchange mixed matrix membranes were fabricated via phase inversion method using nano-sized alpha-zirconium phosphate (α-ZrP-n) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as dispersant nano-additives in the dope solution preparation. The...Read more

Exploitation of Treated Municipal Wastewater in Arid Regions Irrigation for Volatile Oils Production
Radwan S., (Corresponding) Ashour E.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
To avoid any contamination risk of edible crops, the safety use of treated municipal wastewater is growing industrial non-food crops such aromatic plants to produce volatile oils for manufacturing soaps, cosmetics and perfumes, etc. Two field experiments were conducted in a sandy soil in western...Read more

Sustainable and Cost-effective Approach for Treatment of Plating Industrial Wastewater Effluents
(Corresponding) Boguniewicz-Zablocka J., Naddeo V., (Corresponding) Corpuz M.
Topic:
Heavy metals in the environment
The wastewater resulting from the plating industry contains high contents of toxic metals, such as chromium, which is a serious threat to the environment due to its cumulative effects and non-degradability. Several methods have been actively investigated to remove heavy metal ions from aqueous...Read more
