Gravity-driven oil/water separation using PVDF-HFP electrospun nanofiber membranes

Mavukkandy M., Ibrahim Y., Almarzooqi F., Naddeo V., Alhseinat E., Karanikolos G., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

With increasing industrialization and lenient waste disposal practices, oil-contaminated wastewater has become a significant environmental concern. Oil spills associated with oil exploration and transportation will continue to pose an ecological threat as long as we depend on oil for energy needs...Read more

Investigating the effect of different NaCl concentrations as draw solution used to concentrate synthetic municipal wastewater in a Forward Osmosis system

(Corresponding) Kappa S., Themeli E., Noutsopoulos C., Malamis S.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

The main bottleneck towards resource and energy valorization of municipal wastewater is the low strength of sewage; characterized by low organic matter and nutrient concentrations. In this study, a bench scale Forward Osmosis (FO) system with a cellulose triacetate membrane (CTA) was used as a pre-...Read more

Evaluation of real bilge water toxic effects on methanogenic activity

(Corresponding) Gatidou G., Samanides C., Vyrides I.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Bilge water (BW), an oily residue that is accumulated at the bottom of vessels, is mainly generated from pipes’ and engines’ leakage and consisted of lubricating and diesel oil, cleaning solvents, oily sludge and other hydraulic/engine spills from seawater filtrations as well as fresh and seawater...Read more

Practical impediments to the effective utilization of Ballast Water Management Plan from Port facilities and Shipping practice

(Corresponding) BOVIATSIS M., Polemis D., Tselentis V.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Since the new Ballast Water Management Convention entered into force in 2017, the ballast water should be cleansed of any harmful aquatic organisms, pathogens, wastes or even bacteria, before being released into a new aquatic environment. For this purpose, the ships are required to carry i) a...Read more

Treatment and Reuse of Industrial Wastewater Using Reverse Osmosis System

(Corresponding) Ahmadzadeh-Kaleybar F., Emamifar M., Bagheri M.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

From a few years ago, using reverse osmosis in water refinery and desalination, in order to provide clean water for necessary requirements has been considered as a common method. In the current study, the reverse osmosis, in the water refinery process of Miyaneh steel factory (northwest of Iran)...Read more
