Bio-electrocatalytic dechlorination of 2,4-dichlorophenol. Effect of pH and operational configuration
(Elsevier, 2021-01)
Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are regarded as effective green technologies for wastewater treatment, with low associated energy costs. This work studies the influence of the cathode pH and operational mode, as microbial ...
Effect of electric field on the performance of soil electro-bioremediation with a periodic polarity reversal strategy
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
In this work, it is studied the effect of the electric fields (within the range 0.0–1.5 V cm−1) on the performance of electrobioremediation with polarity reversal, using a bench scale plant with diesel-spiked kaolinite ...
Electrobioremediation of Oxyfluorfen-Polluted Soil by Means of a Fixed-Bed Permeable Biological Barrier
(Springer, 2019-05-21)
This work studies the in situ electrobioremediation of an oxyfluorfen-polluted clay soil in a two-stage method. First, a fixed-bed biofilm reactor for oxyfluorfen biodegradation in wastewater was developed; it treated ...
Strategies for the electrobioremediation of oxyfluorfen polluted soils
(Elsevier, 2019-02)
This work compares three strategies for the in-situ remediation of oxyfluorfen polluted clay soil, based on the combination of biological processes and electrokinetics (EK): (i) EK-biostimulation, in which the action of ...
Electro-irradiated technologies for clopyralid removal from soil washing effluents
(Elsevier, 2019-11)
In this work, electrolysis and electro-irradiated technologies, i.e. sonoelectrolysis, photoelectrolysis and photosonoelectrolysis have been evaluated in order to improve the biodegradability of soil washing effluents ...
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 ...
Effect of the polarity reversal frequency in the electrokinetic-biological remediation of oxyfluorfen polluted soil. 2017, 177
(Elsevier, 2017-06)
This work studies the feasibility of the periodic polarity reversal strategy (PRS) in a combined electrokinetic-biological process for the remediation of clayey soil polluted with a herbicide. Five two-weeks duration ...
Improvement of the electro-bioremediation process of a non-polar herbicide-polluted soil by means of surfactant addition
(Elsevier, 2019-02-10)
Oxyfluorfen is a non-polar herbicide that may cause severe soil pollution. The present work studies the possible improvement due to surfactant addition in the efficiency of electro-bioremediation of a clay soil polluted ...
Electrocatalytic dechlorination of 2,4-dichlorophenol in bioelectrochemical systems
(Elsevier, 2020-11)
In this work, the cathodic electro-dechlorination of 2,4-DCP in a Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) was studied. To do that, an MFC externally connected with a 120 Ω load was operated by feeding a synthetic wastewater with 300 ppm ...
Influence of hydraulic retention time and carbon loading rate on the production of algae
(Elsevier, 2018-09)
This paper is focused on the assessment of the production of algae in batch bioreactors. Hydraulic retention time, carbon loading rate and light color were the inputs of the study and algae production the main output. ...
