Evaluation of Photocatalytic Materials for Water Purification: Overview of the New CEN Standard Test
Triantis T., Kaloudis T., (Corresponding) Hiskia A.
Topic:
Water treatment
TiO2 photocatalysis offers an attractive alternative to conventional water treatment technologies leading directly to the degradation of organic pollutants, compared to transferring them from one phase to another as in the case of membranes or activated carbon. There is an increasing interest on...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

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

Topic:
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

Improving mycoremediation of acetaminophen: Effect of pH, nitrogen limitation, and co-cultivation
(Corresponding) Esterhuizen-Londt M., Behnam Sani S., Wang L., Pflugmacher S.
Topic:
Water treatment
Untreated pharmaceutical pollution and their possibly more toxic metabolites, resulting from outdated traditional wastewater treatment processes, end up in aquatic environments and are hazards to the ecosystem homeostasis. Biological wastewater remediation could supplement traditional methods 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
Reduction of Halogenated Organic Compounds in Water: Comparison of Available Reduction Systems based on Cu, Pd and ZVI
(Corresponding) Shee A., Kopinke F., Mackenzie K.
Topic:
Water treatment
Catalysts on the basis of copper (Cu) and the reducing agent borohydride (BH4-) have been successfully used for reduction of chlorinated aliphatics with low substitution degree which are usually resistant to zero-valent iron (ZVI) and hydrodehalogenation catalysts, such as Pd. Reactivity screening...Read more
Microbiological treatment of water by cold plasma at atmospheric pressure
(Corresponding) Anelise C.
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

Biosorption of Mn(II) ions from water solutions by natural sorbent: equilibrium study
(Corresponding) Mustafa E., Aliu F., Atkovska K., Kuvendziev S., Dimitrovski D., Bozhinovski Z., Marinkovski M., Lisichkov K.
Topic:
Water treatment
In the modern society, the problem of the treatment of natural and wastewater resources and their management, is becoming very important.
Of particular interest is the definition of adequate and sophisticated procedures for the treatment of natural and wastewater resources, regardless of whether...Read more
