Adsorptive Removal of Marbofloxacin from Milk using Activated Carbons.

GE X., WU Z., KUNZ W., Barge A., (Corresponding) Giancarlo C.
Topic: 
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
The present study aims to remove the residual marbofloxacin (MBX) from milk with activated carbons (ACs) in batch and flow systems to meet the maximum residue limits (MRLs, 0.075 µg mL-1). Different types (granular and powder) and amounts of ACs were studied. In batch mode, 50 mg of commercial...Read more

Retention potential of contaminants by (nano)magnetite in batch and microfluidic systems

(Corresponding) Papaslioti E., Tabuteau H., Vantelon D., Le Bouteiller P., Greneche J., Fernández Martínez A., Charlet L.
Topic: 
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
(Nano)magnetite (Fe3O4) has been suggested to be a significant reductant for contaminants due to its great adsorption capacity and ability to retain metals on its high specific surface. Its use has become an emerging technology for the treatment of contaminated land and water with a great potential...Read more

Hydrophobic Phase Inverted Polyethersulfone Mixed Matrix Membrane for Water-in-Oil Emulsion Separation

Abuhasheesh Y., Hegab H., Wadi V., Naddeo V., AlMarzooqi F., Banat F., Aljundi I., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic: 
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
The limited access to clean water sources and the severe consequences of oil spills on the environment are of significant concern. Membrane technology showed superior performance to the other conventional techniques due to its higher performance, lower cost, ability to separate emulsions, and being...Read more

Synthesis of Two-Dimensional Nanomaterial Based Hybrid Membrane for Antibiotic Removal from Wastewater

AbuZaid M., Pandey R., Naddeo V., Banat F., Yousef A., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic: 
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
The presence of high concentrations of antibiotics in wastewater has paved the way for the development and spread of pathogens with antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Coupled with the global water stress, this leads to adverse effects on both the environment and human health. Conventional wastewater...Read more

Removal Of Selenium From Polluted Water By Fexoy-Sucrose Foams

Lopez-Toyos L., Rodríguez E., Garcia R., Martinez-Tarazona M., (Corresponding) Lopez-Anton M.
Topic: 
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
A series of iron-based carbon foams were evaluated as adsorbents for selenium removal from aqueous solutions. The carbon foams were prepared using sucrose as a precursor and then impregnated with different iron oxides/hydroxides. The efficiency of iron-based sucrose foams was compared to that...Read more

Mass-transfer processes of toxic hexavalent chromium adsorption onto food waste adsorbent

(Corresponding) ASSELAH A., AFRICANO CANI Z., ABRAÃO MANUEL BUZI N.
Topic: 
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
Heavy metal pollution caused by industrial operations is a global environmental issue. Chromium, used in chrome plating, textile dyeing, wood preservation, and metal fnishing, is classifed as a highly toxic agent to humans and other living organisms. To minimize health risks, these contaminant...Read more

Rainwater collection and treatment on green roofs using aromatic plants in a Mediterranean region.

(Corresponding) Schiza S., Petsis K., Tsiara Z., Petousi I., Fountoulakis M.
Topic: 
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
For modern cities, green roofs provide important economic, environmental and social possibilities. They are a sustainable ecological technology. The present research study assesses the use of two substrates with different compositions for the growth of two aromatic plants (Lavandula dentata and...Read more
