In Situ Modification of Reverse Osmosis Membrane Elements for Enhanced Removal of Multiple Micropollutants

Membranes, 2019
Reverse osmosis (RO) membranes are widely used for desalination and water treatment. However, they insufficiently reject some small uncharged micropollutants, such as certain endocrine-disrupting, pharmaceutically active compounds and boric acid ...

Removal of heavy metals and total organic carbon from wastewater using powdered activated carbon; pp. 100–110 [PDF]

Proceedings of the Estonian Academy of Sciences, 2019
Sources of heavy metals and various micropollutants and their journey into the environment are relatively well studied today. One of the areas where a large proportion of micropollutants end up is wastewater treatment plants (WWTP); therefore, plant ...

Induced aging, structural change, and adsorption behavior modifications of microplastics by microalgae

Environment International, 2022
The effects of microalgal biofouling on microplastic (MP) may differ from bacterial biofouling. In this study, the influence of microalgae on MP surface alteration, structural change, and adsorption of organic micropollutants was evaluated.

Combining in vitro reporter gene bioassays with chemical analysis to assess changes in the water quality along the Ammer River, Southwestern Germany

Environmental Sciences Europe, 2018
Background Rivers receive water and associated organic micropollutants from their entire catchment, including from urban, agricultural and natural sources, and constitute an important environmental component for catalyzing pollutant turnover ...

Proximity Engineering of Fe‒N4 Twins for Oriented Generation of Singlet Oxygen for Hospital Wastewater Treatment

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Precise modulation of Fe–N4 site distances constructs spin‐regulated Fe–N4 twins, triggering a volcano‐type Fenton‐like activity and promoting oriented singlet oxygen generation. The twin‐site catalyst enables highly selective and efficient hospital wastewater purification with simultaneous pharmaceutical degradation and disinfection under low ...
