Impact of carbonaceous particles concentration in a nanofluidic electrolyte for vanadium redox flow batteries
(Elsevier, 2020-01)
Carbon based vanadium nanofluids with different carbon weight percentages (0, 0.02, 0.04 and 0.08 wt %) have been prepared to be used as electrolyte in a redox flow battery. Physical-chemical characterization of the carbon ...
Improving the biodegradability of hospital urines polluted with chloramphenicol by the application of electrochemical oxidation
(Elsevier, 2020-07)
This work focuses on improving the biodegradability of hospital urines polluted with antibiotics by electrochemical advanced oxidation processes (EAOPs). To do this, chloramphenicol (CAP) has been used as a model compound ...
Prediction and management of solar energy to power electrochemical processes for the treatment of wastewater effluents
(Elsevier, 2020-03)
A highly versatile software tool able to predict and manage the solar power coming from photovoltaic panels and to assess the environmental remediation of wastewater effluents has been developed. The prediction software ...
Is it worth using the coupled electrodialysis/electro-oxidation system for the removal of pesticides? Process modelling and role of the pollutant
(Elsevier, 2020-05)
This work presents the development of the electrodialysis/electro-oxidation (EDEO) technology, assessing the role of the pollutant and the modelling of the system in order to look for the key aspects for the development ...
Improving photolytic treatments with electrochemical technology
(Elsevier, 2020-03)
Photochemical reaction is an Advanced Oxidation Process that have been extensively applied to wastewater treatment. New design of reactors, improvement of the hydrodynamics and light irradiation has led to good results. ...
Testing different strategies for the remediation of soils polluted with lindane
(Elsevier, 2020-02)
This work attempts to clarify the remediation processes involved in the treatment of soil spiked with non-soluble species like lindane. To achieve this goal, the remediation of spiked soil is evaluated coupling electro-kinetic ...
Electro-Absorbers: A Comparison on Their Performance with Jet-Absorbers and Absorption Columns
(MDPI, 2020-06)
This work focuses on the removal of perchloroethylene (PCE) from gaseous streams using absorbers connected with electrolyzers. Two types of absorption devices (jet absorber and absorption column) were compared. In addition, ...
Improving biotreatability of hazardous effluents combining ZVI, electrolysis and photolysis
(Elsevier, 2020-04)
In this work, nine types of combination advanced oxidation processes/zero-valent iron (AOP-ZVI) were tested, in order to determine if any of these combinations demonstrate good chances as pretreatment for the biological ...
Assessing the performance of electrochemical oxidation using DSA® and BDD anodes in the presence of UVC light
(Elsevier, 2020-01)
Significance of surface and ground water contamination by synthetic organic compounds has been pointed out in a very high number of papers worldwide, as well as the need of application of treatment technologies capable to ...
Innovative photoelectrochemical cell for the removal of CHCs from soil washing wastes
(Elsevier, 2020-01)
This work presents a novel photoelectrochemical cell concept for the treatment of soil washing effluents polluted with chlorinated hydrocarbons (CHCs). This cell combines the use of low current densities and the direct ...
