Wastewater treatment and emerging contaminants removal in electro membrane bioreactor using self-forming dynamic membranes
(Corresponding) CASTROGIOVANNI F., BOREA L., Millanar-Marfa J., Napodano P., Balakrishnan M., Ballesteros F., Hasan S., Belgiorno V., Naddeo V.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
In recent years, the technical-scientific community has been paying increasing attention to the presence of emerging contaminants that are intercepted in surface water and wastewater since these compounds could have harmful effects on human health and on environment too.
Conventional wastewater...Read more

Suspected-target screening for the assessment of pollutants in sewage sludge and assessment of their environmental risk
(Corresponding) Álvarez-Ruiz R., Cuñat A., Picó Y.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Wastewater generated by human activities contains different organic pollutants from anthropogenic origin. During its depuration in the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) sewage sludge is generated, which also contains these pollutants. While water influents and effluents of WWTPs are widely...Read more
Presence and removal of Organic Micropollutants in 8 different Wastewater Treatment Plants and Risk Assessment of treated effluent
(Corresponding) Di Marcantonio C., Chiavola A., Meccoli L., Leoni S., Calchetti T., Gioia V., Mancini M., Frugis A., Cecchini G., Ceci C., Spizzirri M., Boni M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Increasing attention has been paid in the recent years to the presence of Organic MicroPollutants (OMPs) in water, being considered a source of a high risk for public health and environment (Rodriguez-Narvaez et al., 2017). The present study belongs to a wide research activity carried out since...Read more
Selection of bacterial strains to bioaugment granular sludge and improve the removal of recalcitrant pollutants
(Corresponding) Carlier J., Lara-Moreno A., Ngonyani A., Martins A., Villagomez A., Igbodo B., Cox C., Ismail F., Marín-Beltrán I., Palma T., Costa M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Several advantages are gained by the use of granular sludge in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP), such as higher biomass retention, faster settling properties, lower energy costs and smaller operational land space. However, relatively few studies have been carried out on the biodegradation of...Read more
Photocatalytic Treatment of Hospital Secondary Wastewater in a Pilot Scale for the Removal of Residual Pharmaceuticals
(Corresponding) Konstantinou I., Boti V., Hela D., Albanis T.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The present study deals with the application of heterogeneous photocatalysis in pilot compound parabolic solar (CPC) reactor for the advanced treatment of hospital secondary wastewater effluent treatment using TiO2 and g-C3N4 catalysts. Degradation followed first order kinetics with the...Read more
