Degradation of Diallyl Phthalate (DAP) by fenton oxidation: Mechanistic and kinetic studies
( MDPI AG , 2018 , Article)In this work, the degradation and mineralization of Diallyl Phthalate (DAP) in water by Fenton oxidation was investigated. The effects of different experimental parameters including the initial pH, the hydrogen peroxide ... -
Degradation-fragmentation of marine plastic waste and their environmental implications: A critical review
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article Review)This review critically evaluates the plastic accumulation challenges and their environmental (primarily) and human (secondarily) impacts. It also emphasizes on their degradation and fragmentation phenomena under marine ... -
Effect of temperature and sunlight on the leachability potential of BPA and phthalates from plastic litter under marine conditions
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)This study investigates the leaching potential of several additives embedded in six different plastic types when exposed to extreme simulated marine conditions for 140 days. The findings achieved herein contribute to a ... -
Efficient degradation of tannic acid in water by UV/H2O2 process
( Chinese Institute of Environmental Engineering , 2018 , Article)In this work, the degradation of tannic acid (TA) by UV/H2O2 process has been investigated. UV/H2O2 oxidation experiments were performed by UV irradiation at 254 nm of TA aqueous solutions in a photo-reactor. Firstly, the ... -
Electrolytic oxidation as a sustainable method to transform urine into nutrients
( MDPI , 2020 , Article)© 2020 by the authors. In this work, the transformation of urine into nutrients using electrolytic oxidation in a single-compartment electrochemical cell in galvanostatic mode was investigated. The electrolytic oxidation ... -
Oxidative degradation of tannic acid in aqueous solution by UV/S2O8 2- and UV/H2O2/Fe2+ processes: A comparative study
( MDPI AG , 2019 , Article)Tannic acid (TA) is a major pollutant present in the wastewater generated from vegetable tanneries process and food processing. This work studied TA degradation by two advanced oxidation processes (APOs): UV irradiation ...
