Heterogenous photocatalytic degradation kinetics and detoxification of an urban wastewater treatment plant effluent contaminated with pharmaceuticals
(2009)
Degradation kinetics and mineralization of an urban wastewater treatment plant effluent contaminated with a mixture of pharmaceutical compounds composed of amoxicillin (10mg L−1), carbamazepine (5mg L−1) and diclofenac ...
Photocatalytic degradation of 17α-ethynylestradiol in environmental samples by ZnO under simulated solar radiation
(2012)
BACKGROUND: Recently, the fate of emerging micro-contaminants in environmentally relevant samples has attracted considerable attention. Semiconductor photocatalysis may offer an appealing methodology to treat such contaminants
Degradation of diclofenac during sonolysis, ozonation and their simultaneous application
(2009)
Diclofenac is a widely used anti-inflammatory non-steroidal drug that escapes conventional urban wastewater treatment trains because of its resistance to biodegradation. Therefore it is frequently found in treated effluents, ...
Rapid screening procedure to optimise the anaerobic codigestion of industrial biowastes and agricultural livestock wastes in Cyprus
(2009)
Small-scale experimental investigations were undertaken on the anaerobic digestion (AD) and codigestion of livestock waste and industrial biowastes. A simple procedure was developed to rapidly determine the suitability of ...
Sequential coagulation–flocculation, solvent extraction and photo-Fenton oxidation for the valorization and treatment of olive mill effluent
(2013)
An innovative process battery comprising coagulation–flocculation, extraction of phenolic compounds and photo-Fenton post-oxidation has been developed for the valorization and treatment of olive mill effluents (OMEs). ...
