Assessing the impact of design factors on the performance of two miniature microbial fuel cells
(Elsevier, 2019-02)
Every day, wastewater treatment requires large amounts of electricity. Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) can convert wastewater treatment plants from net power consumers into energy neutral/positive systems by generating electricity ...
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 ...
Techno-economic analysis of the scale-up process of electrochemically-assisted soil remediation
(ELSEVIER, 2019-02-01)
This work presents a techno-economic study of the scaling-up of the electrochemically-assisted soil remediation (EASR) process of polluted soil. Four scales have been selected for the study: laboratory, bench, pilot and ...
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 ...
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 ...
Combined electrochemical processes for the efficient degradation of non-polar organochlorine pesticides
(Elsevier, 2019-10)
This study deals with the development of efficient and economic electrochemical treatment processes to confront the treatment of liquid wastes containing non-polar organochlorine pesticides. In previous works, it was ...
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 ...
Enhancing the removal of atrazine from soils by electrokinetic-assisted phytoremediation using ryegrass
(Elsevier, 2019-10)
Atrazine (ATR) continues being one of the most frequently detected pesticides in natural waters and soils. In this work, an electrokinetic-assisted phytoremediation pot test (EKPR) was performed for the remediation of an ...
