Issue 2

Water and Wastewater Treatment

Low concentrations of contaminants in rainwater is the primary benefit of transforming it as an alternative source of drinking water. However, treatment is necessary as rainwater collects contaminants that are persistent in the environment such as lindane and E.coli. The combination of...

by

José Antonio Sánchez Pérez et al. View all

Issue 3

Advanced Oxidation Processes

This paper is focused on modelling the degradation of micropollutants by solar photo-Fenton at pilot plan scale. To this aim, a three pesticide mixture (acetamiprid, thiabendazole and imazalil, 100 μg l -1 each) was treated by photo-Fenton in simulated secondary effluent. The model covered a wide...
