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 ...
Characterization of PBI/Graphene Oxide Composite Membranes for the SO2 Depolarized Electrolysis at High Temperature
(MDPI, 2022-01)
In this work, polybenzimidazole (PBI) membranes with different graphene oxide (GO) contents (0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 wt %) as organic filler have been prepared. The X-ray diffraction confirms the incorporation of the filler ...
The Role of Mediated Oxidation on the Electro-irradiated Treatment of Amoxicillin and Ampicillin Polluted Wastewater
(MDPI, 2018-12)
In this work, the electrolysis, photoelectrolysis and sonoelectrolysis with diamond electrodes of amoxicillin (AMX) and ampicillin (AMP) solutions were studied in the context of the search for technologies capable of ...
Towards the Electrochemical Retention of CO2: Is it Worth it?
(Wiley, 2021-10-06)
Electrolyzer-absorber for CO2 capture: NaOH produced cathodically by reduction of water is able to retain gaseous CO2 in a combined electrolyzer-absorber device. The process deals with two relevant environmental concerns: ...
Coupling Ultrasound to the Electro-Oxidation of Methyl Paraben Synthetic Wastewater: Effect of Frequency and Supporting Electrolyte
(Wiley, 2018-10)
In this paper, electrooxidation of methyl paraben (MeP) is studied by electrolysis only and electrolysis coupled with sonolysis, using a diamond electrode. Complete mineralization of MeP was achieved for both processes, ...
The integration of ZVI-dehalogenation and electrochemical oxidation for the treatment of complex effluents polluted with iodinated compounds
(ElsevierElsevier, 2022-06)
This work evaluates the integration of dehalogenation with Zero Valent Iron (ZVI) and electrochemical oxidation (EO) for the treatment of urines polluted with iodinated X-ray contrast media (ICM). To do this, different ...
Influence of the supporting electrolyte on the removal of ionic liquids by electrolysis with diamond anodes
(Elsevier, 2018-09)
In this work, it is studied the electrolysis with diamond anodes of three different ionic liquids (ILs): 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (BmimCl), 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (HmimCl) and 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium ...
Evaluation of Goethite as a Catalyst for the Thermal Stage of the Westinghouse Process for Hydrogen Production
(MDPI, 2021-09)
This work focuses on the evaluation of goethite as a catalyst for the transformation of sulfuric acid into sulfur dioxide, a reaction with great interest for the hybrid electrochemical-thermoelectrochemical Westinghouse ...
Review of Anodic Catalysts for SO2 Depolarized Electrolysis for “Green Hydrogen” Production
(MDPI, 2019-01)
In the near future, primary energy from fossil fuels should be gradually replaced with renewable and clean energy sources. To succeed in this goal, hydrogen has proven to be a very suitable energy carrier, because it can ...
Effects of ultrasound irradiation on the electrochemical treatment of wastes containing micelles
(Elsevier, 2019-07)
This work focuses on the effect of the irradiation of ultrasound during the electrolysis of wastes polluted with micelles. To do this, synthetic wastewater (emulating the ones produced in cosmetic industry) was formulated ...
