Treatment and Reuse of Industrial Wastewater Using Reverse Osmosis System
(Corresponding) Ahmadzadeh-Kaleybar F., Emamifar M., Bagheri M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
From a few years ago, using reverse osmosis in water refinery and desalination, in order to provide clean water for necessary requirements has been considered as a common method. In the current study, the reverse osmosis, in the water refinery process of Miyaneh steel factory (northwest of Iran)...Read more

Monitoring the algae biomass growth developed on hollow fiber membrane bioreactor
Novoa A., (Corresponding) Luca F.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
This work focuses on using non-destructive imaging techniques to monitor in-situ the formation of algae biomass on hollow fiber membrane bioreactor treating wastewater. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) was employed to acquire cross-sectional scans of the algae growth in real-time under continuous...Read more
Peracetic acid disinfection: An effective way to reduce antibiotics resistant bacteria from raw hospital wastewater
(Corresponding) Chhetri R., Sanchez Urbina D., Lindholst S., Rickers C., Elkær T., Gade H., Skaarup J., Andersen H.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Risk of infection from antibiotic resistant bacteria from wastewater to the workers in the plant can be reduced by disinfecting wastewater. Peracetic acid (PAA) was used to disinfect the raw wastewater from hospital in pilot scale experiment. Batch experiment was conducted in parallel to confirm...Read more
Letrozole and tamoxifen in municipal wastewater and their photodegradation in ultraviolet (UV) treatment
(Corresponding) Alitalo O., Rantalainen A., Pellinen J.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The incidence of cancer has increased worldwide and hormone antagonists are a group of pharmaceuticals used in the treatment of breast cancer. It is well known, that most of the pharmaceuticals are only partially removed or transformed during traditional wastewater treatment processes and the...Read more
Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor: A Correlation between Biofilm Thickness and Removal of Pharmaceuticals and Endocrinal Disruptor Compounds
(Corresponding) Sanchez-Huerta C., Fortunato L., Leiknes T., Hong P.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Removal of thirteen pharmaceuticals and endocrinal disruptor compounds via membrane aerated biofilm reactor was tested. MABR system demonstrated good management of nitrogenous nutrients. An increase in biofilm thickness enhanced the removal of analgesics, hormones, and disinfectants.
AliCy as Extractant to Remove Iron from Copper-Free Extreme AMD for Further Extraction of Zinc
Nobahar A., Melka A., Neves L., Carlier J., (Corresponding) Costa M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
A previous work showed that copper can be specifically extracted from acid mine drainage (AMD) classified as high-acid and extreme-metals (pH 1.19, ~63 g/L Fe, ~6.5 g/L Al, ~5.3 g/L Cu, ~1.9 g/L Zn and ~0.1 g/L Mn), using 30% (v/v) Acorga M5640 in Shell GTL (a kerosene like solvent) as extractant...Read more
Incorporation 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 incorporation of nanomaterials in membrane’s matrix aims mainly to improve the properties of the membranes such as hydrophilicity, mechanical strength, thermal stability, water flux. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and functionalized graphene oxide (fGO) have recently attracted attention...Read more
Hydrogen and organic acids production from mesophilic and thermophilic dark fermentation of sugarcane vinasse without buffers
(Corresponding) Ribeiro J., Mota T., Oliveira V., Zaiat M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the valorization of vinasse dark fermentation (DF) through bioH2 and value-added metabolites production without buffers in two similar Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) reactors under mesophilic (U30) and thermophilic (U55) conditions. An...Read more

Photocatalytic degradation of magenta effluent from the printing industry with composite catalyst
(Corresponding) Kerkez D., Pucar Milidrag D., Bečelić-Tomin M., Gvoić V., Kulić Mandić A., Leovac Maćerak A., Tomašević Pilipović D.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Water pollution is one of the most current problems related to human life and survival. The high degree of pollution of the human environment is contributed, among other things, by the discharge of industrial wastewater into rivers, among which wastewater from the graphic industry is of great...Read more
