In-situ bioremediation of groundwater polluted with Cr(VI) under anaerobic conditions

Galani A., Anastopoulou P., Noutsopoulos C., (Corresponding) Mamais D.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
The natural capacity of several microbes to reduce Cr(VI) to Cr(III) has been considered of much interest in order to remediate soil and groundwater polluted with Cr(VI). The objective of this work is to evaluate the enhancement of the activity of indigenous Cr(VI) reducing bacteria by the addition...Read more

Chromium VI bioremediation from Tannery Effluent and contaminated soil using Tamarindus indica leaves extract-immobilized nanoparticles

(Corresponding) Babangida S., Aliyu M., Abdullahi S.
Topic: 
Heavy metals in the environment
The potential for application of bioreduction of Cr(VI) as an alternative to chemical remediation strategy has been highlighted in several works of literature. The objective of the study was to determine Cr(VI) reduction capacity of nanoparticles-encapsulated Tamarindus indica methanolic leaves...Read more

Year-round assessment of water pollutants in five Greek rivers

(Corresponding) Lymperopoulou T., Zarkaliou A., Papadopoulou K., Lyberatos G.
Topic: 
River systems in diverse climates and environments
Globally, an estimated 80% of industrial and municipal wastewater is discharged into the environment without any prior treatment, with adverse effects on human health and the ecosystem. The current study was conducted for a year-round assessment of water pollutants in five Greek rivers (Glafkos,...Read more
