Organic micropollutants such as estrogens occur in water in increasing quantities from
predominantly anthropogenic sources. In water such micropollutants partition not only to …

Trace organic contaminants have become an increasing cause of concern for governments
and water authorities as they attempt to respond to the potential challenges posed by …

Modeling of adsorption processes is vital especially in water treatment processes. To ensure
that the right adsorbent is used to remove the target pollutant in water with good efficiency, at …

Natural and synthetic steroidal estrogens (estrone, 17β‐estradiol and 17α‐ethinylestradiol)
are endocrine disrupters, that are discharged consistently from the sewage treatment works …

Membrane science and technology have experienced a long historical development in
laboratory study before realizing their first significant industrial application in the 1960s. With …

With a view to reducing pollution in the aquatic environment, estrone (E1) and 17β-estradiol
(E2) were tested for their adsorbability in water onto activated carbons (ACs) with various …

Removal and interaction mechanisms of four different steroid micropollutants, estrone (E1),
estradiol (E2), progesterone (P) and testosterone (T) were determined for different types of …

Cyclodextrin–polymer composite electrospun nanofibers were developed for micropollutant
(MP) removal from water. The fibers were fabricated by electrospinning of mixed poly (ether …

The occurrence of micropollutants (MPs) including steroid hormones is a global
environmental and health challenge. Carbon-based nanoparticles can be incorporated with …

Adsorption kinetic tests and step-feeding tests were performed to evaluate adsorption
characteristics of geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB). Removal efficiencies of each …
