Chlorine, widely used as a disinfectant for drinking water production, is known to interact with organic matter to yield disinfection by-products (DBPs). Some of these compounds, as the trihalomethanes, are highly toxic for human health. Alternative disinf ...
The physicochemical properties and photocatalytic behavior of Fe/C and Fe/Nafion/C fabrics have been investigated under laboratory conditions (small vial, artificial light) and in large-scale photo-reactors under sunlight to achieve low-cost decontaminatio ...
Water has been declared a human right by the United Nations, thus urging countries who have ratified the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights to ensure supply with drinking water for their populations1. However, supply of drinking ...
This study focuses on the mineralization of 5-amino-6-methyl-2-benzimidazolone (AMBI), an important precursor in the industrial production of dyes, through an integrated Fe(III) photoassisted–biological system without addition of other electron acceptor th ...
The incapability of conventional biological wastewater treatment to remove effectively biorecalcitrant and/or toxic pollutants, as well as the shortage of world water resources have promoted the research of more efficient and ecologically y friendly water ...
Stabilization ponds and water lettuce-based systems in West and Central Africa - State of the art, removal performances and design criteria Despite several projects undertaken so far, sanitation remains a huge challenge in West and Central Africa. Big citi ...
Suspended solids are removed from wastewaters and waters contg. 10-4-10 g solids/L using poly(di-Me diallyl ammonium chloride) and a water-sol., highly branched, high mol. copolymer of di-Me dially ammonium chloride and 0.1-3.0 mol% of a crosslinking comon ...

A high mol. wt. water sol. acrylamide based polymer having improved flocculating properties is provided. The polymer is prepd. by a process, in which a small quantity of a chain branching agent such as methylenebisacrylamide is added to the polymn. reactio ...
A perstraction system using liq.-core microcapsules for pesticide and herbicide removal from aq. environments is proposed. The microcapsules contain an oil, di-Bu sebacate, surrounded by a hydrogel membrane. The extn. efficiency of the capsules was demonst ...
This research contributes to the study and development of a new degradation technique that couples solar and biological processes for the treatment of biorecalcitrant, nonbiodegradable, and/or toxic organic substances present in the aqueous medium. Efficie ...
