Feasibility of reuse filter backwash water as primary/aid coagulant in coagulation-sedimentation process for synthetic effluent
Lilia M., (Corresponding) Djamal A.
Topic:
Water treatment
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of reusing filter backwash water (FBWW) from the water treatment plant (WTP)as a substitute for the conventional coagulants (primary coagulant) in the coagulation-sedimentation process applied for synthetic effluent.The coagulation effect on...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

Disinfection byproducts and related compounds in the coastal zone: a preliminary compilation
Alexandropoulou S., (Corresponding) Nikolaou A., Vagi M.
Topic:
Marine environment and coastal management
Disinfection byproducts (DBPs) are formed whenever disinfectant ingredients contact organic matter. Due to widespread increase in production and use of disinfectants and antiseptics, the presence of their ingredients in coastal environments is increasing. However, very limited scientific literature...Read more

Adsorption-desorption of methylene blue dye onto marine sediments: Kinetics and equilibrium studies
(Corresponding) Vagi M., Leventelli M., Petsas A.
Topic:
Environmental pollution
The present study concerns the investigation of the sorption and desorption phenomena of methylene blue (MB), which is an organic molecule used as a synthetic dye in several industries. For that purpose, the batch equilibrium technique was applied by using three marine sediments that were...Read more
