Technical optimization of a treatment process on ABE effluent by membrane technologies

(Corresponding) Stoller M., Bravi M., Russo P., Bubbico R., Mazzarotta B., Sed G., Moroni M.
Topic: 
Water and wastewater reuse
In the last decades, the interest in biofuel production is sensibly growing as a good source of sustainable energy and a valid alternative to fossil ones. One of the most promising biofuel is butanol and might be produced by starting from different substrates, such as second generation ones, that...Read more

Tuning of an advanced control system on a membrane process for tannery wastewater purification and chromium recovery purposes

Marchetti A., (Corresponding) Stoller M.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
Tannery wastewater represent a hazard to the environment due to its high content of chromium. Conventional methods to purify this wastewater stream are available, but not capable to recover back chromium to the tannery process. Membranes appears to be a promising technology to achieve both targets...Read more

Highly efficient anti-fouling electro-conductive membranes fabricated by reduced Graphene Oxide-Polyaniline (rGO-PANI) laminates

Karkooti A., Rastgar M., (Corresponding) Sadrzadeh M.
Topic: 
Water treatment
As an obstacle against the widespread application of membranes in larger scales, fouling via different materials could cause a severe decline in water permeation. Herein, we fabricated a novel mechanically-stable electro-conductive membrane by simple pressure-assisted laminating of reduced Graphene...Read more

Synthesis of self-assembled graphene oxide (GO)/manganese oxide (MnO2) sulfonated-polyethersulfone (SPES) membranes for heavy metal removal from wastewater

Ibrahim Y., Wadi V., Ouda M., Naddeo V., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
As the 21st century continues, water scarcity remains a significant burden to overcome in many regions. The treatment of industrial wastewater has great potential in providing adequate quantities of freshwater. To ensure safe usage of this water, heavy metal ions must be removed to avoid their...Read more
