Wastewater effluent discharges have been considered as one of the main sources of
synthetic chemicals entering into the aquatic environment. Even though they occur at low …

The evaluation of a chemical substance's persistence is key to understanding its
environmental fate, exposure concentration, and, ultimately, environmental risk. Traditional …

Removal of organic micropollutants was investigated in 15 diverse biological reactors
through short and long-term experiments. Short-term batch experiments were performed …

Microwave-induced chemical activation process was used to prepare an activated carbon
from cocoa shell for efficient removal of two anti-inflammatories, sodium diclofenac (DFC) …

This study investigated the applicability of bulk organic parameters like dissolved organic
carbon (DOC), UV absorbance at 254 nm (UV 254), and total fluorescence (TF) to act as …

A membrane bioreactor with humic acid substrate (MBR-H) was operated to investigate
organic removal and membrane performance. Approximately, 60% of chemical oxygen …

The over-exploitation and insufficient replenishment of groundwater (GW) have resulted in a
pressing need to conserve freshwater and reuse of treated wastewater. To address this …

Groundwater, a major source of drinking water worldwide, is often contaminated with
micropollutants. Although microbial communities in aquifers and soils have the capability to …

Stormwater runoff capture and groundwater recharge can provide a sustainable means of
augmenting the local water resources in water-stressed cities while simultaneously …

Biofilm reactors are a promising biotechnology to eliminate pharmaceuticals from
wastewater during tertiary treatment or in water works for drinking water production. This …
