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 ...
On the design of a jet-aerated microfluidic flow-through reactor for wastewater treatment by electro-Fenton
(Elsevier, 2019-01)
The design of cost-effective reactors for wastewater treatment by electrochemical advanced oxidation processes is still a challenge. In this work, a novel electro-Fenton reactor concept is presented. The combination of a ...
Operating the CabECO® membrane electrolytic technology in continuous mode for the direct disinfection of highly fecal-polluted water
(Elsevier, 2019-01)
In this work, the CabECO® electrochemical cell is evaluated in continuous mode for the disinfection of highly fecal-polluted surface water. Results show that this cell is very efficient in the removal of Total Coliforms ...
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, ...
Development of a novel electrochemical coagulant dosing unit for water treatment
(Wiley, 2019-01)
The design of new approaches that help to decrease both the environmental impact of industrial activities and the cost of existing water treatment technologies is becoming a key aspect of research. In the present work, an ...
Integrating ZVI-dehalogenation into an electrolytic soil-washing cell
(Elsevier, 2019-03)
Combination into a single electrochemical reactor of soil washing, ZVI dehalogenation and anodic oxidation can be used to degrade directly the clopyralid contained in spiked soil. Treatment is efficient, achieving the ...
Electro-ozonizers: A new approach for an old problem
(Elsevier, 2020-06)
This work focuses on the electrochemical production of ozone and its use in the degradation of pollutants contained in wastewater. To do this, the production of ozone by two commercial electrochemical cells specially ...
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 ...
