To address the problem of insucient wastewater treatment and eutrophication of lakes and rivers, the symbiotic association of microalgae and bacteria has shown great potential and numerous advantages. First, co-cultures can exhibit ecient treatment of dome ...
Pre-oxidation is often used before disinfection with chlorine to decrease the reactivity of the water matrix and mitigate the formation of regulated disinfection byproducts (DBPs). This study provides insights on the impact of oxidative pre-treatment with ...
Ozone, electrolysis and granular activated carbon (GAC) were examined as potential post-treatments to followa household-scale biologically activated membrane bioreactor (BAMBi), treating a wash water containing trace urine and feces contamination. Each pos ...
Nitrogen-containing moieties are widespread in natural waters in dissolved organic nitrogen and micropollu-tants. They are often susceptible to an electrophilic attack of ozone because of the electron-rich nature of the neutral form of nitrogen in organic ...
Pre-oxidation is commonly used to mitigate the formation of byproducts during post-disinfection. A comparative study of the impact of four pre-oxidants, ozone (O-3), chlorine dioxide (ClO2), permanganate (Mn(vii)) and ferrate (Fe(vi)), on the formation of ...
In this study, we examined the removal kinetics of two fluoroquinolones (FQs), flumequine (FLU) and ciprofloxacin (CIP), in synthetic wastewater (SWW) and real hospital wastewater (RHW) using FeOx thin films, peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and visible light. Nano ...
Despite decades of research on the fate of phenolic compounds when water is disinfected with hypochlorous acid (HOCl), there is still considerable uncertainty regarding the formation mechanisms and identity of ring cleavage products, especially at higher c ...
Iron electrocoagulation (EC) can be used for the decentralized treatment of arsenic(As)-contaminated groundwater. Iron EC involves the electrolytic dissolution of an Fe(0) electrode to Fe(II). This process produces reactive oxidants, which oxidize As(III) ...
In the Mekong delta, inland-based shrimp breeding requires significant inflow of high-quality freshwater. In turn, discharge of substantial loads of poor-quality effluents negatively impacts adjacent water bodies and favors disease outbreaks. This project ...
Assays focusing on emerging biological phenomena in an animal's life can be performed during embryogenesis. While the embryo of Caenorhabditis elegans has been extensively studied, its biomechanical properties are largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that ...
