Water pollution control

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1977
The ‘Act of 76’ arose out of an inquiry about ‘…how far the present use of rivers or running waters…for the purpose of carrying off the sewage of towns…and the refuse from industrial processes and manufacturers…can be prevented without risk to the public health or serious injury to such processes…and how far such sewage and refuse can be utilized and ...

Bi-Directional Waterway Reveals Nutrient Runoff From Cropland

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2018
Blackbird Creek is the waterway that empties into the Delaware Bay. The lower 21 km of the creek has been shown to have appreciable salinity measurements, suggesting that this portion is influenced by tidal fluctuations.

AD–OX: A sequential oxidative process for water treatment— Adsorption and batch CWAO regeneration of activated carbon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A sequential process for water treatment involving usual adsorption on activated carbon (AC) followed by wet air catalytic oxidation of the adsorbed pollutants has been carried out in a fixed bed reactor with a mixture of two model pollutants.

A reusable chitosan/TiO2@g-C3N4 nanocomposite membrane for photocatalytic removal of multiple toxic water pollutants under visible light.

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2021
Photocatalysis has been proved to be a promising approach in wastewater purification. However, it is hard to recycle powdery photocatalysts from wastewater in industry, but immobilizing them using larger materials can overcome this drawback.

A Fluorescent Sensor Array Based on Heteroatomic Macrocyclic Fluorophores for the Detection of Polluting Species in Natural Water Samples

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2018
The development of a novel all-solid-state optical sensor array based on heteroatomic macrocyclic fluorophores (diaza-crown ether, metallocorrole and pyridinophans) for the photographic analysis of liquid media, is presented.

Sulfonated Cellulose-Based Magnetic Composite as Useful Media for Water Remediation from Amine Pollutants

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Commercially available microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) was functionalized using chlorosulfonic acid, while iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) were adsorbed on the surface of the cellulose derivative by the Massart’s co-precipitation method.

Growers' irrigation practices, knowledge, trust, and attitudes toward wastewater reuse in Lebanon, Jordan, and Tunisia through a food safety lens

open access: yesWater Practice and Technology, 2023
Maximizing water reuse requires addressing legal and regulatory frameworks, but growers’ understanding of water as a vehicle for pollutants and safe practices is vital in this process.

Additive Manufacturing‐Enabled Architected Nanocomposite Lattices Coated with Plasmonic Nanoparticles for Water Pollutants Detection

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, 2023
Novel low‐cost materials to uptake and detect vestigial amounts of pesticides are highly desirable for water quality monitoring. Herein, are demonstrated, for the first time, surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensors enabled via additively ...

Host–Gut Microbiome Metabolic Interactions in PFAS-Impacted Freshwater Turtles (Emydura macquarii macquarii)

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a growing concern for humans, wildlife, and more broadly, ecosystem health. Previously, we characterised the microbial and biochemical impact of elevated PFAS on the gut microbiome of freshwater turtles ...

Fluid mechanics of waste water disposal in the ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
Outfall pipes into the ocean are analogous to chimneys in the atmosphere: they are each intended for returning contaminated fluids to the environment in a way that promotes adequate transport and dispersion of the waste fluids.
