Floating immobilized TiO2 catalyst for the solar photocatalytic treatment of micro-pollutants within the secondary effluent of wastewater treatment plants

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2023
Floating immobilized spherical titanium dioxide catalysts were used to degrade micro-pollutants by solar photocatalysis. The degradation of the micro-pollutants was performed in the secondary effluent of a wastewater treatment plant.

Photocatalytic ozonation in an immersion rotary body reactor for the removal of micro-pollutants from the effluent of wastewater treatment plants

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2022
Carrier-bound titanium dioxide catalysts were used in a photocatalytic ozonation reactor for the degradation of micro-pollutants in real wastewater. A photocatalytic immersion rotary body reactor with a 36-cm disk diameter was used, and was irradiated ...

Anthropogenic organic micro-pollutants and pathogens in the urban water cycle: assessment, barriers and risk communication (ASKURIS) [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Sciences Europe, 2013
Abstract In urban areas, water often flows along a partially closed water cycle in which treated municipal wastewater is discharged into surface waters which are one source of raw waters used for drinking water supply. A number of organic micro-pollutants (OMP) can be found in different water compartments.

Amniotic Fluid and Ocean Water: Evolutionary Echoes, Chemical Parallels, and the Infiltration of Micro- and Nanoplastics [PDF]

open access: yesToxics
Background: Abiogenesis is hypothesized to have occurred in the aquatic environments of the early Earth approximately 3.8–4.0 billion years ago, in oceans containing high concentrations of ions (Na+ ≈ 470 mmol/L, Cl− ≈ 545 mmol/L, Mg2+ ≈ 51–53 mmol/L ...

Behavior of matrix parameters and their correlation to micro-pollutant degradation during treatment of real wastewater by carrier-bound photocatalytic ozonation

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2022
Immobilized titanium dioxide catalysts were used within a photocatalytic immersion rotary body reactor, which was connected to a substream ozonation unit to remove micro-pollutants from wastewater.

Laccase-assisted biosensing constructs – Robust modalities to detect and remove environmental contaminants

open access: yesCase Studies in Chemical and Environmental Engineering, 2022
This review highlights the relevance of laccase-assisted cues for detecting and removing emerging contaminants (ECs). ECs are distributed in the environmental matrices due to various industrial practices and anthropogenic inputs.

Natural and oil surface slicks as microbial habitats in marine systems: A mini review

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Natural and oil surface slicks are widespread phenomena at the air-water interface and represent visible surface films with distinct physicochemical and biological properties compared to non-slick surface films and underlying marine water.
