Performance evaluation of a flat sheet self-forming dynamic membrane (SFDM) for municipal wastewater treatment containing organic micropollutants
MILLANAR-MARFA J., (Corresponding) Borea l., CASTROGIOVANNI F., NAPODANO P., DE LUNA M., BELGIORNO V., NADDEO V., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Membrane bioreactors gained increasing interest due to its small footprint and high efficiency. Nonetheless, high capital and operational cost of MBR remains a challenge. With the aim to reduce MBR cost, this study used Dacron mesh to form a dynamic membrane that serves as a substitute to...Read more

MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION OF TWO-PHASE OLIVE-OIL WASHING WASTEWATER PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS RECOVERY AND TREATMENT BY NOVEL WEAK-BASE ION EXCHANGE RESINS
(Corresponding) Ochando J., Anotnio M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
In the present work, the concentration and recovery of high-added value phenolic compounds from two-phase olive mill wastewater (OMW) and the simultaneous effluent treatment by a ‘green process’ based on resins adsorption/ion exchange was studied. Olive oil is produced by a technological procedure...Read more

Gravity-driven oil/water separation using PVDF-HFP electrospun nanofiber membranes
Mavukkandy M., Ibrahim Y., Almarzooqi F., Naddeo V., Alhseinat E., Karanikolos G., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
With increasing industrialization and lenient waste disposal practices, oil-contaminated wastewater has become a significant environmental concern. Oil spills associated with oil exploration and transportation will continue to pose an ecological threat as long as we depend on oil for energy needs...Read more

Aloe Vera waste for Methylene Blue (MB), Rhodamine B (RB) and Methyl Orange (MO) adsorption.
(Corresponding) Mazzeo L., Bavasso I., Di Palma L.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis miller) waste obtained from a local cosmetic production factory was used as bio-adsorbent for the removal of three different dyes: Methylene Blue (MB), Rhodamine B (RB) and Methyl Orange (MO). The material was preliminary washed with water at room temperature. Batch...Read more

Preparation and characterization of f-MWCNT-GO self-assembled polymeric nanocomposite membrane for wastewater treatment
(Corresponding) Nassar L., Khalil H., Wadi V., Naddeo V., Banat F., Hasan S.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Increased population and urbanization have resulted in the generation of significant amounts of wastewater. The integration of membrane technology with nanotechnology has prompted revolutionary advances in the treatment of wastewaters. In this study, functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (f-...Read more
Integration of negatively charged MWCNT-fGO self-assembled nanomaterials into PLA polymeric membranes for wastewater treatment
(Corresponding) Khalil H., Nassar L., Wadi V., Naddeo V., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The integration of nanomaterials in membrane’s matrix aims to improve the membrane’s hydrophilicity, mechanical strength, thermal stability and water flux, which are vital membrane properties needed to active efficient removal of contaminants. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and...Read more
Synthesis of self-assembled graphene oxide (GO)/manganese oxide (MnO2) sulfonated-polyethersulfone (SPES) membranes for heavy metal removal from wastewater
Ibrahim Y., Wadi V., Ouda M., Naddeo V., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
As the 21st century continues, water scarcity remains a significant burden to overcome in many regions. The treatment of industrial wastewater has great potential in providing adequate quantities of freshwater. To ensure safe usage of this water, heavy metal ions must be removed to avoid their...Read more
Use of a two-stage MBBR system for medium-strength dairy wastewater treatment
Katsara A., Iliopoulou A., Zkeri E., Aloupi M., Fountoulakis M., (Corresponding) Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
A two-stage Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) system consisting of a methanogenic and an aerobic reactor in series was used for medium strength dairy wastewater treatment. An energy analysis was conducted for the methanogenic MBBR to investigate its autonomy and its potential to act as a...Read more

Applying solar distillation for the sustainable management of olive mill wastewater
Mastoras P., Gatidou G., Vakalis S., Fountoulakis M., Haralampopoulos D., (Corresponding) Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Olive mill wastewater (OMWW) is a major by-product of olive oil production industry. Its chemical characteristics (high concentrations of COD and TSS, low pH value, existence of total phenols at the range of some ppm) does not allow its efficient treatment using conventional physiochemical or...Read more
