Membrane technology for the purification of solutions containing cationic surfactants.
(Corresponding) Klimonda A., Kowalska I.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
The objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of cationic surfactant (Tequat LC90i, TEAQ) removal from aqueous solutions with the use of tubular ceramic ultrafiltration and microfiltration modules. Research included an assessment of the feed solution parameters (surfactant...Read more
Sustainable purification of greywater with green walls
(Corresponding) Boano F., Caruso A., Costamagna E., Fiore S., Demichelis F., Ridolfi L., Galvão A., Pisoeiro J., Rizzo A., Masi F.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
In this study, we describe a sustainable system for treatment and reuse of grey wastewater in urban areas through vertical green walls constructed on unused surfaces of buildings. The system integrates the benefits linked to the introduction of green spaces in urban areas with the advantages...Read more

RECOVERY AND SEPARATION OF VALUABLE METALS (COPPER AND ZINC) FROM ACIDIC MINE WATERS BY ION-EXCHANGE RESINS
(Corresponding) Vecino X., Reig M., López J., Valderrama C., Gibert O., Cortina J.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
Mining wastewaters, containing heavy metals such as copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn), have a huge impact on the environment due to they are not biodegradable and tend to bioaccumulate in plants or living organisms. Therefore, in this work the performance of ion-exchange and solvent-impregnated resins were...Read more

Recovery of sulphuric acid and valuable metals (Zn, Cu and REE) from acidic mine waters using nanofiltration
(Corresponding) López J., Reig M., Vecino X., Valderrama C., Gibert O., Cortina J.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
Acidic mine waters (AMWs) contains moderate concentrations of sulphuric acid, relatively high concentrations of metals (Al, Fe, Cu and Zn) and minor amounts or rare earth elements (REE). The established management routes for AMW treatment include a neutralization-precipitation step, which implies a...Read more
Technical optimization of a treatment process on ABE effluent by membrane technologies
(Corresponding) Stoller M., Bravi M., Russo P., Bubbico R., Mazzarotta B., Sed G., Moroni M.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
In the last decades, the interest in biofuel production is sensibly growing as a good source of sustainable energy and a valid alternative to fossil ones. One of the most promising biofuel is butanol and might be produced by starting from different substrates, such as second generation ones, that...Read more
Study of water quality in a recirculating aquaculture system for environmental sustainability and fish welfare
(Corresponding) Almeida D., Magalhães C., Silva E., Blanquet I., Mucha A.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
Recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) are a promising technology of fish production to reduce aquaculture environmental impact. Water recirculation relies on the stability of physical, chemical and biological processes to increase biosecurity. Although, disruptions in RAS systems can cause fish...Read more
Water reuse integration in the holistic water cycle
(Corresponding) Adin A.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
Wastewater reclamation and reuse (WRR) is an emerging water generation tool for combating water stress. The objective of this paper is to develop a conceptual approach which will pave the way to WRR sustainable integration in a multi-resources regional or local system. For that purpose, a holistic...Read more

Installation of a sewer mining unit in the Athens Urban Tree Nursery
(Corresponding) Plevri A., Samios S., Lytras E., Papadopoulos K., Lioumis C., Lazari A., Tazes N., Monokrousou K., Makropoulos C.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
Within the framework of the Horizon 2020, a European project called NextGen evaluates and champions transformational circular economy solutions and systems around resource use in the water sector. The Athens demo site is located in the Athens Urban Tree Nursery which is part of the Goudi Park, an...Read more
Mine water management in abandoned mine sites: from waste to resource
(Corresponding) LOREDO J.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
Mine water usually supposes one of the most important environmental problems of the extractive industry, where water quality is dependent of a great number of factors relatives to the ore deposit characteristics and to the exploitation method typology. But if water quality by nature or after...Read more

Long-term impact of use of treated wastewater on accumulation of metals in soil.
(Corresponding) Elsergany M., KARKAIN R., DIAMADAPOULOS E., Moussa M.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
The aim of this paper is to assess the environmental risks associated with the wastewater reuse with respect to six metals; cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) in the city of Dubai. Treated Sewage Effluent (TSE) is used for landscape irrigation. Samples of...Read more
