(2015)
•EE2 degradation in wastewater under UVC or simulated solar light was studied.•The effect of several operating parameters on process efficiency was investigated.•Estrogenicity in wastewater matrices is not completely removed ...
Sonophotocatalytic treatment of ofloxacin in secondary treated effluent and elucidation of its transformation products
(2013)
The extent of the degradation of ofloxacin in secondary treated effluents by means of sonolysis, photocatalysis, sonocatalysis and their combined application, sonophotocatalysis, in order to investigate the potential ...
Investigating the fate of iodinated X-ray contrast media iohexol and diatrizoate during microbial degradation in an MBBR system treating urban wastewater
(2013)
The capability of a moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) to remove the iodinated contrast media (ICM) iohexol (IOX) and diatrizoate (DTZ) from municipal wastewater was studied. A selected number of clones of microorganisms ...
Treatment efficiency and economic feasibility of biological oxidation, membrane filtration and separation processes, and advanced oxidation for the purification and valorization of olive mill wastewater
(2017)
Olive mill wastewater (OMW) is a major waste stream resulting from numerous operations that occur during the production stages of olive oil. The resulting effluent contains various organic and inorganic contaminants and ...
Winery wastewater purification by reverse osmosis and oxidation of the concentrate by solar photo-Fenton
(2013)
•RO is considered quite efficient in purifying winery wastewater.•RO permeate fulfills the quality criteria to be used for irrigation purposes.•Toxicity and phytotoxicity of the permeate are substantially reduced by RO.•RO ...
Utilizing solar energy for the purification of olive mill wastewater using a pilot-scale photocatalytic reactor after coagulation-flocculation
(2014)
This study investigated the application of a solar-driven advanced oxidation process (solar Fenton) combined with previous coagulation/flocculation, for the treatment of olive mill wastewater (OMW) at a pilot scale. ...
