Electrochemical Treatment of Wastewater by ElectroFenton, Photo-ElectroFenton, Pressurized- ElectroFenton and Pressurized Photo ElectroFenton: A Firs…
2021
In the last few years increasing attention has been devoted to the utilization of electroFenton (EF) and EF based technologies for the treatment of wastewater polluted by recalcitrant organics. It has been shown that the performances of EF can be strongly improved using ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, e.g., by the photo-electroFenton (PEF) method, or pressurized air or oxygen, e.g., by the pressurized-electroFenton (PrEF) one. Although several studies were carried out on the degradation of many organic pollutants using EF, PEF or PrEF, a systematic comparison between PEF and PrEF was never reported as well as the possibility to couple the irradiation with pressurized air. In this study the pe…
Photo-Electrochemical Technologies for Removing Organic Compounds in Wastewater
2018
Abstract In recent years, electrochemical technologies for the prevention and remediation of environmental pollution have been strongly developed. A review of photoelelectrocatalysis (PEC) for the treatment of wastewater is presented in this chapter. Different types of photo-anodes and cathodes have been developed and studied to increase the efficiency of PEC for the removal of organic compounds. An interesting parameter that was investigated in the last work is the generation of an active species by the utilization of proper cathodes. Moreover, this chapter deals with the keys factors affecting the PEC, including electrolyte oxidation.
Water Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRFs): The Case Study of Palermo University (Italy)
2021
The wastewater sector paradigm is shifting from wastewater treatment to resource recovery. In addition, concerns regarding sustainability during the operation have increased. In this sense, there is a need to break barriers (i.e., social, economic, technological, legal, etc.) for moving forward towards water resource recovery facilities and demonstration case studies can be very effective and insightful. This paper presents a new water resource recovery case study which is part of the Horizon 2020 EU Project “Achieving wider uptake of water-smart solutions—Wider Uptake”. The final aim is to demonstrate the importance of a resource recovery system based on the circular economy concept. The r…

MUNICIPAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT IN A HYBRID ACTIVATED SLUDGE BIOFILM REACTOR: A PILOT PLANT EXPERIENCE
2008
A hybrid activated sludge/biofilm process (IFAS) was investigated. This process which contains both suspended and attached biomass, is created by introducing plastic elements as biofilm carriers material into a classical activated sludge system. This process is suitable for upgrading existing activated sludge wastewater treatment plants which are no longer able to comply with the effluent standards, and in particular in those cases where the existing plant does not nitrify or only nitrify during summer. However, the IFAS processes are relatively new and there are still uncertainties with respect to their design. A main task is to find a rational approach to the design of nitrification in hy…

Genetic Algorithm Modeling for Photocatalytic Elimination of Impurity in Wastewater
2019
The existence of C.I. Acid Yellow 23 (AY23) in water causes a great danger to people and society. Here, we suggest an advanced technique which predicts the photochemical deletion of AY23. The genetic algorithm (GA) technique is suggested in order to predict the photocatalytic removal of AY23 by implementing the Ag-TiO\(_{2}\) nanoparticles provided under appropriate conditions.
AIR LIMBAH LAUNDRY : KARAKTERISTIK DAN PENGARUHNYA TERHADAP KUALITAS AIR
2020
At present the laundry business is one of the promising businesses with targeted consumers from the upper middle class who do not have much time to wash clothes at home. Like other industries, laundry also produces wastewater that can have a negative impact on the environment if it is not managed properly. This study characterizes laundry wastewater and looks at its effect on the quality to the groundwater/wells close to the laundry business. Water samples include TSS, TDS, Turbidity, pH , COD, BOD, Phosphate, and Detergent parameters analyzed according to SNI and/or the HACH method (DR3900). Characterization of the laundry wastewater samples show a high level of detergent and phosphate par…
