by

Pentari D et al. View all

Issue 2

Water and wastewater treatment and reuse

The aim of the present study was to synthesize a sorbent, for arsenic removal from aqueous solutions, reusing two waste materials (slag and red mud). The sorbent was prepared after chemical and thermal treatment, during which amorphous silica sol and FeOOH sol were produced simultaneously and form...

Dr. Vakros John et al. View all

Issue 2

Water and wastewater treatment and reuse

Activated sludge is a biological floc composed of microorganisms, organics, and inorganics and plays an important role in wastewater treatment. The pH of an activated sludge suspension determines the acid – base behaviour and the charge of the microorganisms in water. In the present study, the...

Study of the Cu(II) removal from aqueous solutions by adsorption on titania

by

Georgaka A. and Spanos N.

Issue 3

General

The removal of heavy metals from wastewaters is a matter of paramount importance due to the fact that their high toxicity causes major environmental pollution problems. One of the most efficient, applicable and low cost methods for the removal of toxic metals from aqueous solutions is that of their...

The mechanism of retention of vanadium oxo-species at the “titanium oxide / aqueous solution" interface

by

Tella E., Panagiotou G.D., Petsi T., Bourikas K., Kordulis C., and Lycourghiotis A.

Issue 3

General

The mechanism of retention of vanadium oxo-species at the “titanium oxide/aqueous solution” interface was investigated over a wide pH range (4-9) and V(V) solution concentration (10-5-2×10-2 M) by combining equilibrium deposition experiments, potentiometric titrations, microelectrophoresis and...
