The abatement of organic micropollutants during oxidation processes has become an emerging issue for various urban water systems such as drinking water, wastewater, and water reuse. Reaction kinetics and mechanisms play an important role in terms of effici ...
The study provides new evidence for Ag-coated polyester (PES) mediating Escherichia colt inactivation by way of genetically engineered E. coli (without porins, from now denoted porinless bacteria). This allows the quantification of the bactericidal kinetic ...
This review focuses on the acceleration of the bactericidal and fungicidal effects by uniform, adhesive Cu-based nanocomposites on textile and thin polymer surfaces. The acceleration of the bacterial inactivation kinetics mediated by Cu, TiO2/Cu and ZrO2-T ...
This review addresses catalytic/photocatalytic films under visible light inducing fast bacterial inactivation. These films present uniform, stable and adhesive surfaces able to inactivate bacteria within minutes. Uniform sputtered polyethylene-TiO2 (PE-TiO ...
The photocatalytic activity, mechanism and characterization of polyethylene-TiO2 films (PE-TiO2) during the discoloration/degradation of methylene blue (MB) are reported in this study. PE-TiO2 films were prepared at moderate temperatures (similar to 90 deg ...
This study reports new findings on the sputtered Cu-polyester (Cu-PES) bacterial inactivation under low intensity visible light (lambda > 400 nm). Cu-PES samples sputtered for 160 s led to the complete inactivation of E. coli in anaerobic and aerobic media ...
