Enhancement of UV disinfection of urine matrixes by electrochemical oxidation
(Elsevier, 2021-05)
This work focuses on the removal of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) contained in hospital urines by UV disinfection enhanced by electrochemical oxidation to overcome the limitations of both single processes in the ...
A new electrochemically-based process for the removal of perchloroethylene from gaseous effluents
(Elsevier, 2019-04)
Removal of perchloroethylene using combined granular active carbon (GAC) adsorption and electrolysis is evaluated in this research. There is an interest in the regeneration of GAC using methanol solutions, because this ...
Reversible electrokinetic adsorption barriers for the removal of organochlorine herbicide from spiked soils
(Elsevier, 2018-11)
This work aims to describe the removal of clopyralid from clay soils using electrokinetically assisted soil flushing (EKSF) coupled with a permeable reactive barrier (PRB), consisting of beds of Granulated Activated Carbon ...
Are electrochemical fences effective in the retention of pollution?
(Elsevier, 2018-08)
In this work, a three-month test is used to evaluate the role of electrokinetic fences in the prevention of the diffusion of herbicide in case of accidental spills of large amounts of highly concentrated products in clay ...
Electrokinetic flushing with surrounding electrode arrangements for the remediation of soils that are polluted with 2,4-D: A case study in a pilot plant
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
This work aimed to evaluate electrokinetic soil flushing (EKSF) technologies for the removal of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) from spiked soils using an electrode configuration consisting of one cathode surrounded ...
Pre-disinfection columns to improve the performance of the direct electro-disinfection of highly faecal-polluted surface water
(Elsevier, 2018-09)
This work presents the design and evaluation of a new concept of pre-disinfection treatment that is especially suited for highly polluted surface water and is based on the combination of coagulation-flocculation, lamellar ...
ZVI – Reactive barriers for the remediation of soils polluted with clopyralid: Are they really Worth?
(Elsevier, 2018-10)
In this work, the remediation of soil spiked with clopyralid is evaluated using two types of zero valent iron (ZVI) barriers coupled with electrokinetic soil flushing (EKSF). These barriers consist of soil merged with iron ...
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 ...
Electrochemically Assisted Soil Washing for the Remediation of Non-polar and Volatile Pollutants
(Springer, 2021-03)
Purpose of Review
This review is focused on the removal of chlorinated hydrocarbons (as representative of persistent pollutants) from soil by soil-washing techniques, paying special attention to the application of ...
Improving the degradation of low concentration of microcystin-LR with PEM 2 electrolyzers and photo-electrolyzers
(Elsevier, 2021-03)
In this work, the performances of two electrochemical cells, a conventional liquid-electrolyte electrolyzer (LEE) and a solid-electrolyte electrolyzer (SEE) were compared for the treatment of two real water matrixes polluted ...
