Ionic liquids application for wastewater treatment and biofuel production: A mini review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article Review)
Commonly described as ionic compounds that are fluid below 100 C, Ionic Liquids (ILs) have found its application in several fields of science and engineering. Formerly limited in its use for electrochemical purposes, ILs ...
Treatment of septic tank effluent using moving-bed biological reactor: kinetic and biofilm morphology
(
Center for Environmental and Energy Research and Studies
, 2016 , Article)
Septic tanks are very commonly used wastewater collection systems throughout the world, and especially in rural areas. In this study, the use of moving-bed biological reactors (MBBR) for the treatment of septic tank effluent ...
Potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae for carbon dioxide bio-fixation and advanced wastewater treatment
(
AIChE
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae (MIMA) as a CO2 capturing technology and treatment process for wastewaters was evaluated at two temperatures ( 25 and 30 C) and different CO2 dosage ( 0%, 5% and 15%). During ...
Choline chloride based natural deep eutectic solvent for destabilization and separation of stable colloidal dispersions
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
In solid-liquid separation processes, coagulation/flocculation is one of the most popular techniques in treating wastewater, as it is efficient, simple, and economical. Consequently, the formation of a new environment ...
From Waste to Watts: Updates on Key Applications of Microbial Fuel Cells in Wastewater Treatment and Energy Production
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Due to fossil fuel depletion and the rapid growth of industry, it is critical to develop environmentally friendly and long-term alternative energy technologies. Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are a powerful platform for ...
Sustainable innovation in membrane technologies for produced water treatment: Challenges and limitations
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
Discharged water from the oil and gas fields is a common type of wastewater called produced water (PW). It consists of different combinations of salinities, oils, and mineral deposits. Growing industrial demand, accelerated ...
Integrated bioelectrochemical platforms
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Book chapter)
Energy and water are intrinsically linked, as all energy sources need water for their production processes, and at the same time, water resources require energy to be available for human consumption. One of the promising ...
Biorefinery perspectives of microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) for hydrogen and valuable chemicals production through wastewater treatment
(
Green Wave Publishing of Canada
, 2020 , Article Review)
The degradation of waste organics through microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) generates hydrogen (H2) gas in an economically efficient way. MEC is known as the advanced concept of the microbial fuel cell (MFC) but requires ...
Influence of polyelectrolytes and other polymer complexes on the flocculation and rheological behaviors of clay minerals: A comprehensive review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article Review)
Separation of clay minerals from industrial wastewaters is of great academic and practical importance. Current treatment techniques are either not economically viable, not environmentally friendly, or both. Thus, researchers ...
Degradation of 4-chlorophenol through cooperative reductive and oxidative processes in an electrochemical system
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
Electrochemical treatment can be an effective approach for degrading recalcitrant organic contaminants because its anode/cathode produces powerful oxidizing/reducing conditions. Herein, through the cooperation of the ...
