Performance of metal-free carbonaceous catalysts in the removal of paracetamol by catalytic wet peroxide oxidation
(Corresponding) Santos Silva A., Henrique A., Steldinger H., Diaz de Tuesta J., Gläsel J., Correia Silva J., Etzold B., Gomes H.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
The performance of metal-free carbonaceous catalysts was evaluated in the removal of paracetamol, chosen as model pharmaceutical micropollutant, by catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO). The carbon materials were prepared from pentaerythritol tetraacrylate and divinylbenzene copolymer with bis(2-...Read more
Magnetic CoFe2O4@carbon yolk-shell nanoparticles as catalysts for the catalytic wet peroxide of paracetamol
Silva A., Costa Guari N., Diaz de Tuesta J., Eno Pottker W., Yassue Cordeiro P., (Corresponding) Gomes H.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
This work focuses the use of carbon-coated magnetic cobalt ferrite nanoparticles as catalysts for catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) of the emerging pollutant paracetamol. A magnetic core composed of CoFe2O4 is developed by a sol-gel method. The core is subsequently coated with a formaldehyde-...Read more
Valorization of olive stone by-product as Fenton-like catalysts for olive mill wastewater treatment
(Corresponding) Esteves B., Morales-Torres S., Maldonado-Hódar F., Madeira L.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
The olive oil industry is responsible for the generation of highly-loaded and complex effluents (olive mill wastewaters, OMW) that pose several environmental threats. In particular, OMW’s polyphenolic fraction is known for its recalcitrant behavior and phytotoxic properties (McNamara et al., 2008...Read more
