Systems improvement and energy savings program for the existing conventional extended aerobic treatment of domestic wastewater in compliance of DAO 2016-08 new general effluent regulations
Maceda M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
This is a system improvement and energy savings program for a Sewage Treatment Plant treating wastewater coming from a shopping mall operation. Wastewater from shopping mall is considered domestic wastewater, which needs a big volume of water, and produced big amount of wastewater. Generators of...Read more

Novel Polyethersulfone (PES) Alpha-Zirconium Phosphate (α-ZrP) Ion Exchange Mixed Matrix Membranes for Effective Removal of Heavy Metals from Wastewater
ABDULKARIM E., IBRAHIM Y., (Corresponding) HASAN S., NADDEO V., BANAT F.
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

Implementing nature-based and other engineering solutions to recover water from non-conventional water sources
(Corresponding) Kappa S., Mamais D., Noutsopoulos C., Kisser J., Stanchev P., Katsou E., Malamis S.
Topic:
Circular economy and industrial symbiosis
Mediterranean (MED) islands and coastal areas are under pressure due to water shortage. Water reserves are depleted, while tourism in the summer months burdens the limited water sources. A persistent issue arising from the above activity is the increased seasonal loads of sewage that wastewater...Read more

DESIGN OPTIMIZATION OF A POLYMERIC NANOFILTRATION MEMBRANE FOR OLIVE MILL WASTEWATER VALORIZATION PLUS PURIFICATION
(Corresponding) Pulido J.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
The core of the present work was to model and optimize an environmentally friendly nanofiltration (NF) treatment process for two-phase olive mill wastewater (OMW) valorization throughout concentration and recovery of its phenolic fraction and the obtention of a purified permeate stream. A factorial...Read more
MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION OF TWO-PHASE OLIVE-OIL WASHING WASTEWATER PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS RECOVERY AND TREATMENT BY NOVEL WEAK-BASE ION EXCHANGE RESINS
(Corresponding) Ochando J., Anotnio M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
In the present work, the concentration and recovery of high-added value phenolic compounds from two-phase olive mill wastewater (OMW) and the simultaneous effluent treatment by a ‘green process’ based on resins adsorption/ion exchange was studied. Olive oil is produced by a technological procedure...Read more

New pillared clays for the removal of pollutants from wastewater by treatment with oxidation processes
(Corresponding) Kalmakhanova M., Massalimova B., Diaz de Tuesta J., Gomes H.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
The constant development of technological processes aggravates the problem of pollution, due to a significant change in the composition of effluents that makes necessary the development of new (and/or improvement of the existing) treatment methods and catalytic materials. In this sense, the use of...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

How does presence of microplastics impact biogas production?
Resnik N., (Corresponding) Žgajnar Gotvajn A., Griessler Bulc T.
Topic:
Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies
The aim of this study was to evaluate the inhibition on the biogas production caused by microplastics (MPs). Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are receptors of MP. After wastewater treating, more than 90% of MP could be retained in the sludge. Anaerobic digestion of the excess sludge can help...Read more
Degradation of textile dyes in water by gas-liquid NSP-DBD plasma
MEROPOULIS S., (Corresponding) AGGELOPOULOS C.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Textile dyes represent some of the most complicated environmental pollutants due to their variety and complex structure. Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is regarded as a highly competitive advanced oxidation process towards the removal of organic pollutants from wastewater. In this study, a gas-...Read more
Application of carbon-based catalysts derived from compost on catalytic wet peroxide oxidation of leachate waters from mechanical and biological treatment plant units for municipal solid waste
Batista G., (Corresponding) Roman F., Diaz de Tuesta J., Mambrini R., Gomes H.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
This work aims at the valorization of compost from mechanical and biological treatment (MBT) units of municipal solid waste by their transformation into carbon-based catalysts for further application in the treatment of MBT leachate waters (chemical oxygen demand (COD) = 60.0 g L-1, total organic...Read more
