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 ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
A multi-layered view of chemical and biochemical engineering
(Elsevier, 2020-03)
The contents of this article are based on the results of discussions the corresponding author has had since 2015 with the co-authors, who are members of academia and industry in Europe, on the scope and significance of ...
