Waste activated sludge high‐rate treatment of septage: Biodegradability studies and contact phase trials towards a cleaner environment

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The waste activated sludge high‐rate (WASHR) process, developed in our previous study, is used for septic wastewater treatment. This high‐rate contact stabilization pre‐treatment uses typical waste streams found in wastewater treatment plants to reduce a portion of the loadings on the main treatment trains.

Economic and environmental implications of the development of UASB reactors in Mexico for sustainable industrial wastewater treatment

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work is to demonstrate that the inclusion of an up‐flow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB reactor) within an industrial wastewater treatment plant reduces the plant's investment and operating costs compared to a system based solely on conventional complete‐mix activated sludge (CMAS), operating under the same design principles ...

Nonequilibrium Laser Regulation of the Electronic Structure of the Ni‐Based Electrode for Boosting Nucleophilic Electrooxidation of Alcohols

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work reports an efficient, simple, low‐cost, and scalable method for overall electrode preparation. Nonequilibrium laser synthesis rapidly yields NiO nanocrystals on which a nickel oxyhydroxide (NiOOH) overlayer is grown in situ. By varying the number of laser pulses, the Ni3+/Ni2+ ratio is precisely tuned, thereby modulating the electronic ...

Upcycling Pomegranate Peel Into Functional Yoghurt: Chemical Profile, Antioxidant Capacity, and Anti–Staphylococcus aureus Activity

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Pomegranate peel extract enhanced the nutritional, physicochemical, and microbiological qualities of yoghurt. It is a rich source of polyphenolic compounds that eliminates Staphylococcus aureus in yoghurt at 0.1% and 0.3% concentrations without altering its pH value. ABSTRACT The use of natural additives, particularly pomegranate peel extract (PPE), to
