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

Polyethersulfone/Polyamide11Cost Effective, Antifouling- Nanofiltration Blend Membrane

(Corresponding) Shalaby M., Abdallah H., Alanezi A., shaban A.
Topic: 
Water treatment
Nanofiltration membranes (NF) are considered and used extensively in seawater softening, food, textile, and mining industries for the removal of di-and multi-valents to increase RO lifetime by decreasing fouling rates, and chemical cleaning intervals. In this work, blend membranes of...Read more

Water quality control of Aposelemis Dam Reservoir

(Corresponding) GYPARAKIS S., Diamadopoulos E.
Topic: 
Water treatment
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

Monitoring of the main operational parameters of Aposelemis Water Treatment Plant (WTP).

(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

Successful use of UV light driven photocatalytic oxidation for the removal of an emergent water contaminant

SESCU A., FAVIER L., LUTIC D., CIOBANU G., (Corresponding) HARJA M.
Topic: 
Water treatment
The discharged pharmaceutical compounds in water have created environmental problems due to their harmful potential at low concentrations. Finding an environmentally friendly treatment process is a real challenge to avoid water contamination. Heterogeneous photocatalysis, can be used for the...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

New generation of patterned membranes for water treatment

Asad A., Sameoto D., (Corresponding) Sadrzadeh M.
Topic: 
Water treatment
Membrane technology is an energy-efficient separation process that is expected to dominate the water treatment industry. However, the high vulnerability of membranes to fouling has limited the expansion of sustainable and energy-efficient membrane processes. Surface patterning has been proven to be...Read more

POLLUTANT PHOTO-NF REMEDIATION OF AGRO-WATER

(Corresponding) Romanos G., Falaras P., Markellou E., Georgaki I., Kizis D., Karanasios E., Anagnostopoulous C.
Topic: 
Water treatment
The agro-food industry is the main manufacturing industry in Europe, representing 14% of the total turnover and accounting for approximately 1.8% of Europe’s total water use. The absence of effective wastewater management approaches can lead to potential ecological ramifications including...Read more
