Electrochemical oxidation/disinfection of urine wastewaters with different anode materials
(
MDPI
, 2019 , Article)
In the present work, electrochemical technology was used simultaneously for the deactivation of microorganisms and the destruction of micro-pollutants contained in synthetic urine wastewaters. Microorganisms (E. coli) were ...
Degradation of hydroxychloroquine by electrochemical advanced oxidation processes
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
In this work, the degradation of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) drug in aqueous solution by electrochemical advanced oxidation processes including electrochemical oxidation (EO) using boron doped diamond (BDD) and its combination ...
Catalytic Degradation of 4-Ethylpyridine in Water by Heterogeneous Photo-Fenton Process
(
MDPI
, 2019 , Article)
In this work, the degradation of 4-ethylpyridine (4EP) in water by a heterogeneous photo-Fenton process (H2O2/Fe3O4/ultraviolet irradiation (UV)) was investigated. More rapid and effective 4EP degradation was obtained with ...
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 ...
Synthesis of Novel Aqua ƞ4-NNNO/Cu(II) Complexes as Rapid and Selective Oxidative Catalysts for O-Catechol: Fluorescence, Spectral, Chromotropism and Thermal Analyses
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
A new tetradentate Schiff base (SB), (E)-4-fluoro-2-(1-((2-(piperazin-1-yl)ethyl)imino)ethyl)phe-nol, was synthesized from condensation of 2-(1-piperazinyl)ethylamine and 5-fluoro-2-hydroxyacetophe-none. This ligand was ...
Concentrations of essential and toxic elements and health risk assessment in brown rice from Qatari market
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Twenty-two brown rice varieties available in the Qatari market were analyzed for essential and toxic elements by ICP-MS. Found concentrations (µg/kg) were: As: 171 ± 78 (62–343), Cd: 42 ± 60 (4–253), Cr: 515 ± 69 (401–639), ...
Immobilization of heavy metals by microbially induced carbonate precipitation using hydrocarbon-degrading ureolytic bacteria
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Crude oil contamination introduces multiple threats to human health and the environment, most of which are from toxic heavy metals. Heavy metals cause significant threats because of their persistence, toxicity, and ...
Mineralization of Riluzole by Heterogeneous Fenton Oxidation Using Natural Iron Catalysts
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Fenton (H2O2/Fe2+) system is a simple and efficient advanced oxidation technology (AOT) for the treatment of organic micropollutants in water and soil. However, it suffers from some drawbacks including high amount of the ...
Insights into the degradation mechanism of PET and PP under marine conditions using FTIR
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Plastics possess diverse functional properties that have made them extremely desirable. However, due to poor waste management practices, large quantities eventually end up in the oceans where their degradation begins. ...
