Impact of UV–HO Advanced Oxidation and Aging Processes on GAC Capacity for the Removal of Cyanobacterial Taste and Odor Compounds

Environmental Health Insights, 2015
Cyanobacteria and their taste and odor (T&O) compounds are a growing concern in water sources globally. Geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (MIB) are the most commonly detected T&O compounds associated with cyanobacterial presence in drinking water sources ...

Avaliação do potencial de processos oxidativos avançados para remediação de águas contaminadas com geosmina e 2-MIB Evaluation of advanced oxidation processes for remediation of contamined water with geosmin and 2-MIB

Química Nova, 2008
In this work, the efficiency of some homogeneous advanced oxidation processes (UVC/H2O2, Fe2+/H2O2, UVC/Fe2+/H2O2, UVA/Fe2+/H2O2, solar/Fe2+/H2O2) was investigated toward the degradation of geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB).

Sensory Preference of Drinking Water Influenced by Subthreshold‐Level Mineral Salt Mixtures

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
A distinct preference plateau was identified, with liking maximized near the salts' absolute thresholds. Sweetness promotion and astringency suppression were the primary sensory mechanisms driving preference in these mineral salt mixtures. A predictive model pinpointed the optimal blend (0.92 mg/L KCl; 0.60 mg/L MgSO4), providing a practical, data ...

Water quality, waste production, and off‐flavor characterization in a depuration system stocked with market‐size Atlantic salmon Salmo salar

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, 2023
Land‐based Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, grow‐out facilities utilize depuration to remediate off‐flavor. Water used in this process is either discharged or repurposed as supply water in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS).

Comparing off‐flavor trends in freshwater recirculating aquaculture systems with microbially mature or immature biofilters while growing Atlantic salmon Salmo salar

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 56, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Geosmin (GSM) and 2‐methylisoborneol (MIB) cause objectionable off‐flavors in fish produced in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). Remediation solutions have not been developed; therefore, a study was conducted to determine if microbial maturity limits off‐flavor production. Triplicate RAS with newly established nitrification (“immature”)

Combined UV LED and Chlorine for Synergistic Drinking Water Disinfection and Assessment of Disinfection By‐Product Formation

AWWA Water Science, Volume 7, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT This study provides a comprehensive evaluation of the effectiveness of 280 nm UV LEDs in enhancing chlorine disinfection in natural water sources. The results of this work indicate sequential treatments (UV‐chlorine and chlorine‐UV) further enhanced the disinfection efficiency of T1 in natural waters, especially at higher UV doses, such as 40 ...

Effect of Processing, Cultivar, and Crop Year on Volatile Composition in Pulses and Pulse Flours Analyzed by Headspace Solid‐Phase Microextraction Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry

Journal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Low pulse consumption in the United States is linked to barriers such as lengthy cooking times, limited preparation knowledge, and undesirable taste or texture. Incorporating pulse flours into convenience products is a promising approach; however, volatile organic compounds responsible for off‐flavors hinder their broader acceptance.

A single Streptomyces symbiont makes multiple antifungals to support the fungus farming ant Acromyrmex octospinosus [PDF]

, 2013
Attine ants are dependent on a cultivated fungus for food and use antibiotics produced by symbiotic Actinobacteria as weedkillers in their fungus gardens. Actinobacterial species belonging to the genera Pseudonocardia, Streptomyces and Amycolatopsis have
