Management of solar energy to power electrochemical wastewater treatments
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
In this work, the management of photovoltaic (PV) energy, assisted by a redox flow battery (RFB), for powering an electrochemical advanced oxidation process (EAOP), is evaluated. The storage of surplus energy allows to ...
Influence of current density and inlet gas flow in the treatment of gaseous streams polluted with benzene by electro-absorption
(Elsevier, 2022-08)
This paper is focused on the evaluation of the electrochemically assisted absorption process (electro-absorption) as a treatment for volatile organic compounds contained in polluted air flows. Benzene degradation was used ...
Energy recovery from winery wastewater using a dual chamber microbial fuel cell
(Wiley Online, 2015-07)
BACKGROUND
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) can treat agro-industrial wastewater, but only a few studies have reported the treatment of winery waste and much work is needed in order to develop this interesting application of ...
Modelling of the treatment of wastewater by photovoltaic solar electrochemical oxidation (PSEO) assisted by redox-flow batteries
(Elsevier, 2021-04)
This work aims at the formulation of simple and pragmatic models to predict the behaviour of a photovoltaic solar electrochemical oxidation treatment assisted by an energy storage system. Those models will be later integrated ...
Improving sustainability of electrolytic wastewater treatment processes by green powering
(Elsevier, 2021-02)
This work focuses on the evaluation of the impact of powering electrolytic wastewater treatment processes with grid or renewable energy on the sustainability of this electrochemical remediation technology. To face this ...
Toward more sustainable photovoltaic solar electrochemical oxidation treatments: Influence of hydraulic and electrical distribution
(Elsevier, 2021-05)
Powering electrochemical technologies with renewable energies is a promising way to get more sustainable environmental remediation techniques. However, the operational conditions of those processes must be optimized to ...
New prototypes for the isolation of the anodic chambers in microbial fuel cells
(Elsevier, 2016-10)
This work has been focused on the assessment of new prototypes of MFC in which a more strict separation of the anode and cathode compartments is looked for, in order to attain strict anaerobic conditions in the anode chamber ...
Importance of Electrode Tailoring in the Coupling of Electrolysis with Renewable Energy
(Wiley, 2020-06-16)
In this work, it has been evaluated how the performance of an electrolyzer, used to treat a clopyralid waste and directly powered without regulation by a battery, is influenced by the electrodes resistance. Electrolyzers ...
INFLUENCE OF SLUDGE AGE ON THE PERFORMANCE OF MFC TREATING WINERY WASTERWATER
(Elsevier, 2016-05)
The objective of this paper was to determine the influence of sludge age on microbial fuel cell (MFC) performance for generating electricity and removing organic matter from winery wastewater. Six Solid Retention Times ...
The salinity effects on the performance of a constructed wetland-microbial fuel cell
(Elsevier, 2017-10)
The objective of the present work is to study the influence of the wastewater salinity concentration on the performance of a Constructed Wetland-Microbial Fuel Cell (CW-MFC) for simultaneous water pollution control and ...
