Removal of sulfate from mining waters by electrocoagulation
(Elsevier, 2017-07-12)
This work focuses on the removal of sulfate from mining waters by using electrocoagulation with iron electrodes. A comparison of the results obtained by electrocoagulation with those obtained with the application of ...
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 ...
Are we correctly targeting the research on disinfection of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB)?
(Elsevier, 2021-10)
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) is one of the biggest public health challenges of our time since causes thousands of human deaths per year. ARB are bacteria which acquire resistance over time through different mechanism ...
Use of conductive diamond photo-electrochemical oxidation for the removal of pesticide glyphosate
(ELSEVIER, 2016-07-14)
In this work, the depletion of a commercial formulation of the pesticide glyphosate (RoundUp) using photolysis, electrolysis and photo-electrolysis with diamond anodes was studied. Results show that single photolysis is ...
Treatment of Soil-Washing Effluents Polluted with Herbicide Oxyfluorfen by Combined Biosorption–Electrolysis
(ACS, 2017-02)
The treatment of soil-washing effluents polluted with herbicide oxyfluorfen is studied using a combined process consisting of biosorption and electrolysis. Results show that oxyfluorfen is very efficiently removed from ...
A review on disinfection technologies for controlling the antibiotic resistance spread
(Elsevier, 2021-11)
The occurrence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) in water bodies poses a sanitary and environmental risk. These ARB and other mobile genetic elements can be easily spread from hospital facilities, the point in which, ...
Depletion of ARGs in antibiotic-resistance Klebsiella, Pseudomonas and Staphylococcus in hospital urines by electro and photo-electro disinfection
(Elsevier, 2022-10)
The depletion of blaKPC (K. pneumoniae), blaOXA-50 (P. aeruginosa) and mecA (S. aureus) genes from hospital urines is evaluated to contribute to solve the silent pandemic of antibiotic-resistance bacteria. A microfluidic ...
Disinfection of urine by conductive-diamond 1 electrochemical oxidation
(Elsevier, 2018-08)
This work focuses on the application of electrolysis with diamond anodes for the disinfection of urine. To do this, a synthetic human urine was polluted with Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa and then, it was ...
Disinfection of urines using an electro-ozonizer
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
In this work, the disinfection of urines polluted with Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) using a commercial electro-ozonizer is described. The device consists of a membrane-electrode assembly flow cell that specially ...
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 ...
