Topic:
Desalination
Water is one of the most precious natural resources of the planet. Global water demand is expected to increase by 20-30% in near future, mainly due to the increase of industrial activities and domestic use. In this context, up to now, many water treatment technologies have been proposed to address...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

Ηexavalent chromium reduction in a photocatalytic membrane reactor in the presence of organic acids
(Corresponding) Sarasidis V., Kyriakou E., Plakas K., Karabelas A.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
This study deals with the photocatalytic reduction of carcinogenic hexavalent chromium, encountered in industrial effluents and surface waters, to much less toxic and harmful trivalent form. Experiments were performed in a pilot scale Photocatalytic Membrane Reactor employing titanium dioxide...Read more
Application of electrochemical peroxidation with nanoscale zero-valent iron particles (nZVI) for selenium removal from oil refinery wastewater
Hansen M., Gutiérrez C., Lazo A., Lazo P., (Corresponding) Hansen H.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
This study uses the electrochemical peroxidation process to remove selenium in combination with nanoscale zero-valent iron particles (nZVI) as the iron source. Also, experiments with just the addition of the nZVI doses without current application were carried out. The nanoparticles were synthesized...Read more
Removal Of Selenium From Polluted Water By Fexoy-Sucrose Foams
Lopez-Toyos L., Rodríguez E., Garcia R., Martinez-Tarazona M., (Corresponding) Lopez-Anton M.
Topic:
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
A series of iron-based carbon foams were evaluated as adsorbents for selenium removal from aqueous solutions. The carbon foams were prepared using sucrose as a precursor and then impregnated with different iron oxides/hydroxides. The efficiency of iron-based sucrose foams was compared to that...Read more
