Abstract: Oxo-anions occur in drinking waters, pose potential health risks, and should be controlled. It may be possible to incorporate zero-valent iron

Abstract: Aquatic colloids are ubiquitous in nature and are composed of inorganic and organic material. During treatment of drinking water they foul granular filters, membranes, and granular activated carbon and are likely to hinder ...

Abstract: Photocatalytic nitrate reduction was examined in a model water and in groundwater by using three commercially available titanium dioxide photocatalysts (Evonik P25, Evonik P90, and Sachtleben Hombikat UV100). The photocatalysts ...

Abstract: With the recent emergence of endocrine disrupting compounds as an important potable drinking water and reclaimed wastewater quality issue, the removal of two estrogenic compounds (17β-estradiol and fluoranthene) by ...

Abstract: Arsenate breakthrough in column studies with a porous granular ferric hydroxide (GFH) was investigated in model waters and groundwaters. In this study, the use of rapid small-scale column tests (RSSCTs) initially designed ...

Abstract: An understanding of bromate formation mechanisms is critical for minimization and control of bromate formation during ozonation. Bromate formation observed in different natural source waters in the presence of a hydroxyl ...

Abstract: Chemical oxidation is a promising approach for in situ or ex situ treatment of heavy, long-chain (C12−C40) petroleum-hydrocarbon impacted soils. Aqueous chemical oxidation treatments (sodium percarbonate, hydrogen peroxide, ...

Abstract: Algae (green, blue–green, and diatom) grown in inorganic media produced particulate and dissolved organic carbon (DOC). DOC produced by a green-alga contains 25% hydrophobic acids. DOC from all algae had specific ultraviolet ...
