Selective adsorption of multi-dye ions by Citrus Peel: Characterization, Performance, Regeneration
Şimşek İ., Bahadır T., (Corresponding) Çelebi H., Tulun Ş.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The irrefutable harmful components of wastewater originating from the textile industry are dyes. For this reason, it is accepted as an important environmental and health problem. A large number of natural adsorbents have been used for the efficient removal of industry-sourced dyes. In this study,...Read more
A pilot scale of constructed wetlands (CWs) was designed, constructed and operated on August 2022 at pharmaceutical factory in Jordan. This pilot is aiming to remove pharmaceuticals (i.e. antibiotics) from treated industrial wastewater generated from secondary activated sludge system. Jordanian...Read more
Removal Of Ciprofloxacin From Waste Water By Photocatalytic Method With Waste Polystyrene And Tio2 Composites
(Corresponding) Hayri-Senel T., Kahraman E., Sezer S., Erdol-Aydin N., Nasun-Saygili G.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Ciprofloxacin (CIP) is one of the widely used antibiotics. Since ciprofloxacin in the aquatic ecosystem adversely affects human health as well as other organisms, it must be removed from wastewater.
The aim of this study was to develop polystyrene (PS) and TiO2 composites that can be used as...Read more
Development of pH-Responsive Adsorptive Ultrafiltration Membrane for the treatment of Heavy Metals from Aqueous Solution
Khamis F., Hegab h., Arafat h., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
This research presents a new amino-modified activated carbon (MAC) nanohybrid and its use in polylactic acid (PLA) ultrafiltration (UF) membranes for treating wastewater. The MAC composite was produced through three steps: activated carbon pretreatment, modification, and heat-induced cross-linking...Read more

Mitigating the impact of antineoplastic drugs on aquatic environment: nanofiltration as a promising tertiary wastewater treatment
(Corresponding) Gouveia T., Cristóvão B., Pereira V., Crespo J., Alves A., Ribeiro A., Silva A., Santos M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Pharmaceuticals known as antineoplastic agents are increasingly prescribed in the fight against cancer. This is causing some concern in the scientific community due their poor treatment in many conventional wastewater treatment plants and poor environmental biodegradability, posing a potential risk...Read more
Use of residues from Eucalyptus Globulus as biosorbents for cadmium removal
(Corresponding) Hansen H., Gutierrez C., Alarcon J., Lazo A., Hansen M., Lazo P., Ortiz R.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The present work studied the removal of cadmium from aqueous solutions by a series of batch sorption experiments using Eucalyptus Globulus bark and seeds as biosorbents. Both biosorbents showed good results in cadmium removal. The best results were obtained when working with a particle size < 75...Read more
Management of Table Olive Wastewater (TOWW) in Turkey
(Corresponding) Dolgen D., Alpaslan M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Table olive is very important agricultural product for Turkey. It has a great market share in the country and also have high export potential. Management of table olive wastewater (TOWW) is an emerging and important issue, since large volumes of TOWW are discharged with high concentrations of...Read more
Application of electrochemical peroxidation with nanoscale zero-valent iron particles (nZVI) for selenium removal from oil refinery wastewater
Hansen M., Gutiérrez C., Lazo A., Lazo P., (Corresponding) Hansen H.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
This study uses the electrochemical peroxidation process to remove selenium in combination with nanoscale zero-valent iron particles (nZVI) as the iron source. Also, experiments with just the addition of the nZVI doses without current application were carried out. The nanoparticles were synthesized...Read more
Metagenomic Profile of Bacterial Community and Phage in Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant
Nandar Htwe N., (Corresponding) Rollon A., Miyanaga K., Tanji Y.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
For a better understanding of the microbial community and associated phage abundance in domestic wastewater treatment system, this study did a metagenomics profiling of bacterial community and phage in activated sludge process and chlorination system. The Phylum Proteobacteria is the most abundant...Read more
Global Sensitivity Analysis of a Mathematical Model for AnMBR Systems Treating Municipal Wastewater
(Corresponding) Plevri A., Ioannidis C., Noutsopoulos C., Mamais D.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
This study conducted a Global Sensitivity Analysis (GSA) of a mathematical model for simulating urban wastewater treatment in anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs) at ambient temperatures. The Anaerobic Digestion Model ADM1 was modified and implemented in Matlab/Simulink, comparing three...Read more
