Potential of Using real-time OiW monitoring for control of produced water treatment in offshore oil & gas production
(Corresponding) Zhenyu Y.
Topic:
Water treatment
The produced water has been the largest produced fluid stream at most of the current offshore oil & gas production in North-sea. It is not uncommon that the water cut can reach 90% in many matured production fields. No matter the produced water will be eventually discharged to the ocean, or...Read more

Τhe aim of this study was to check the water quality of Aposelemis Dam reservoir. The water quality was studied in nine (09) different water depths: 0 m, 02 m, 03 m, 05 m, 07 m, 09 m, 10 m, 13 m and 15 m. A sudden change in the temperature of the water was observed at the water depth of 7 m (...Read more

(Corresponding) GYPARAKIS S., DIAMADOPOULOS E.
Topic:
Water treatment
Rising population, increased industrial and agricultural water usage as well as climate changes have brought great challenges to water supply of adequate quality and quantity. Thus, the water treatment industry has nowadays a greater emphasis on the optimization of water treatment plants to improve...Read more
Water resources management in education for sustainable development
(Corresponding) Tzaberis N., Paraskeva D., Tatarakis N.
Topic:
Water treatment
Issues relating to water resources are included among the most serious environmental problems. Pollution and deterioration of the receiving surface water and groundwater, mainly from human activities, pose an immediate threat to natural ecosystems and the functions of biosphere reserves, the...Read more

Microbiological treatment of water by cold plasma at atmospheric pressure
(Corresponding) Cubas A., Machado M., Moecke E.
Topic:
Water treatment
Ensuring the world's population access to drinking water is one of the millennium's challenges, for although our planet is made up of 70% of water, poor distribution and water quality are problems that concern world leaders, being among the objectives of development 2030 agenda set by the...Read more

Treatment of drinking water by UV/Cl2: a study of β-cyclocitral, a cyanobacterial taste & odor compound.
Avagianos C., Antonopoulou M., Dimotikali D., Hiskia A., (Corresponding) Kaloudis T.
Topic:
Water treatment
Homogeneous photocatalytic processes are receiving increased interest with regards to drinking water treatment for emerging pollutants. Especially the UV/Cl2 technique has a potential for real large-scale applications as it can combine disinfection with chemical oxidation using processes that are...Read more
Radiation-induced degradation products of 2-methyl isoborneol and geosmin: the role of different reactive species
CHRISTOPHORIDIS C., PESTANA C., LAWTON L., (Corresponding) HISKIA A.
Topic:
Water treatment
Gamma radiolysis can serve as an effective method for the degradation of organic water pollutants, due to the production of reactive species, oxidative (OH•, OOH•, O2•-) or reductive (eaq-, H•). The application of scavengers enables the selective production of these species. Our aim was to explore...Read more

Water treatment
Contamination of water resources with Arsenic poses serious health concerns because of its toxic and carcinogenic nature. Detection of Arsenic at concentrations higher than 10 parts per billion (ppb) in some Philippine water resources confirmed the need for further studies on the contamination and...Read more

Feasibility of reuse filter backwash water as primary/aid coagulant in coagulation-sedimentation process for synthetic effluent
Lilia M., (Corresponding) Djamal A.
Topic:
Water treatment
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of reusing filter backwash water (FBWW) from the water treatment plant (WTP)as a substitute for the conventional coagulants (primary coagulant) in the coagulation-sedimentation process applied for synthetic effluent.The coagulation effect on...Read more
Efficiency of Arsenic Removal from Water Using Fe-Modified Biochar from Date-Palm-Leaves Combined with Spectral Induced Polarization (SIP) Monitoring
Siddiq O., (Corresponding) Tawabini B., Kirmizakis P., Kalderis D., Ntarlagiannis D., Soupios P.
Topic:
Water treatment
In this study, lab-scale column batch adsorption experiments were conducted to demonstrate the efficiency of Iron-modified Biochar (Fe-BC) produced from date-palm leaves at 500oC to remove arsenic (As) from contaminated water. The As removal capacity were monitored by both chemical analysis and...Read more
