Valorisation of waste polyethylene by blending with ethylene-vinyl acetate and incorporation of a new type of compatibilizer
(Corresponding) Simon-Stőger L., Varga C.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Nowadays polyethylene is one of the polymers produced in the greatest volume, therefore, parallelly the amount of generated waste polyethylene (w-HDPE) significant as well. Valorisation and recycling of w-HDPE can be realized by blending with different types of polymers and/or elastomers in order...Read more

Topic:
Nanomaterials in the environmnents applications and effects
A new nanocomposite material, consisting of nanoiron incorporated in cationic resin beads, was evaluated for the removal of Cr(VI) under flow conditions, by conducting column experiments. An aqueous solution containing Cr(VI) 5 mg/L and NaCl 0.01 M as inert electrolyte was introduced in the column...Read more
Synthesis of kaolin supported nZVI and evaluation for the removal of Cr(VI) and Ni from waste streams

Topic:
Efficient water resources management in cr(vi) impacted water bodies
This study involved the synthesis of kaolin-supported nano zero valent iron (K-nZVI) and the evaluation of its performance for the removal of chromates and nickel from contaminated waters. K-nZVI was prepared by mixing a kaolin sample with a FeCl3 solution, followed by the addition of sodium...Read more

Chromium (VI) and nickel removal by resin supported nanomagnetite: column experiments
(Corresponding) Mystrioti C., Papassiopi N., Xenidis A.
Topic:
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Magnetite is a mixed-valent iron oxide with magnetic properties, which is considered as an efficient adsorbent for the removal of Cr(VI) from the aquatic environment. However nanomagnetite possesses difficulties for in situ remediation applications due to clogging effects and high separation cost...Read more
