Chitosan-derived hydrothermally carbonized materials and its applications: A review of recent literature
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article Review)
Chitosan (CS) is a linear polysaccharide biopolymer, one of the most abundant biowastes in the environment. This makes chitosan a potential material for a wide range of applications. To improve CS's properties, chitosan ...
Electrochemical oxidation of ammonia (NH4+/NH3) ON synthesized nickel-cobalt oxide catalyst
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Ni–C and Co/Ni–C electro-catalysts were prepared using solvothermal reaction method and used to oxidize ammonia in aqueous solution. Ni and Co were consistently dispersed in carbon generating spherical and porous structure ...
Potential use of treated wastewater as groundwater recharge using gis techniques and modeling tools in dhuleil-halabat well-field/jordan
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
Due to limited rainfall and precipitations, different developing countries depend on groundwater (G.W.) resources to challenge water scarcity. This practice of continuous and excessive G.W. pumping has led to severe water ...
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 ...
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 ...

(
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
