Enhancing solar disinfection (SODIS) with the photo-Fenton or the Fe2+/peroxymonosulfate-activation process in large-scale plastic bottles leads to toxicologically safe drinking water

César Pulgarin

Solar disinfection (SODIS) in 2-L bottles is a well-established drinking water treatment technique, suitable for rural, peri-urban, or isolated communities in tropical or sub-tropical climates. In this work, we assess the enlargement of the treatment volum ...

Natural iron ligands promote a metal-based oxidation mechanism for the Fenton reaction in water environments

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Giulio Farinelli

The Fenton reaction is an effective advanced oxidation process occurring in nature and applied in engineering processes toward the degradation of harmful substances, including contaminants of emerging concern. The traditional Fenton application can be rema ...

A novel proposition for a citrate-modified photo-Fenton process against bacterial contamination of microalgae cultures

César Pulgarin, Christian Ludwig, Adrian Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Dominik Refardt

This study reports the first attempt of a citrate-modified photo-Fenton (PF) application at near-neutral pH (7.5–8.5, tap water) to disinfect Escherichia coli (as model bacterium), in Chlorella vulgaris cultures. The conditions are aimed towards bacterial ...

Insights into the Photocatalytic Bacterial Inactivation by Flower-Like Bi2WO6 under Solar or Visible Light, Through in Situ Monitoring and Determination of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS)

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Stefanos Giannakis, Minoo Karbasi

This study addresses the visible light-induced bacterial inactivation kinetics over a Bi2WO6 synthesized catalyst. The systematic investigation was undertaken with Bi2WO6 prepared by the complexation of Bi with acetic acid (carboxylate) leading to a flower ...

Improving visible light photocatalytic inactivation of E. coli by inducing highly efficient radical pathways through peroxymonosulfate activation using 3-D, surface-enhanced, reduced graphene oxide (rGO) aerogels

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Minoo Karbasi

In this work, we synthesized highly porous reduced graphene oxide foams, presenting augmented antibacterial activity in presence/absence of peroxymonosulfate (PMS). To date, this is the first investigation of photocatalytic PMS disinfection by 3D-rGO mater ...

Unfolding the action mode of light and homogeneous vs. heterogeneous photo-Fenton in bacteria disinfection and concurrent elimination of micropollutants in urban wastewater, mediated by iron oxides in Raceway Pond Reactors

César Pulgarin, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Dominique Grandjean, Stefanos Giannakis, Irene De La Obra Jimenez

In this work, iron oxides have been proposed as low-cost heterogeneous photo-Fenton catalysts for the simultaneous disinfection and reduction of microcontaminant load from urban wastewater in raceway pond reactors at near-neutral pH. The objective was not ...

Visible light plays a significant role during bacterial inactivation by the photo-fenton process, even at sub-critical light intensities

César Pulgarin, Cristina del Socorro Lonfat, Stefanos Giannakis, Rosa Mosteo, David Muzard, Angelica Varon Lopez

The aim of this research is to clarify the contribution of sunlight wavelengths, irradiance and Fe2+/H2O2 during bacterial disinfection by the photo-Fenton process in clear surface waters. We considered different solar spectrum distributions (visible, UVA- ...

Employing bacterial mutations for the elucidation of photo-Fenton disinfection: Focus on the intracellular and extracellular inactivation mechanisms induced by UVA and H2O2

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Ling Feng, Da Wang

The bacterial inactivation mechanisms by solar light and the photo-Fenton process is still a matter of debate. In this study, we bring evidence towards the elucidation of the mechanisms that govern photo-Fenton disinfection at near-neutral pH. With the use ...

Kinetic modeling of lag times during photo-induced inactivation of E. coli in sunlit surface waters: Unraveling the pathways of exogenous action

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Jean Arnaud Troyon

This work presents a kinetic analysis of the exogenous photo-induced disinfection of E. coli in natural waters. Herein, the inactivation of bacteria by light and photo-generated transient species, i.e., hydroxyl radical (HO center dot), excited triplet sta ...
