Hydrodynamic cavitation is a promising technology for several applications, like disinfection, sludge treatment, biodiesel production, degradation of organic emerging pollutants as pharmaceutical, and dye degradation. Due to local saturation conditions, cavitating liquid exhibits generation, growth, subsequent collapse vapor-filled cavities. The cavities' brings very high pressure temperature; this last aspect essential in some chemical processes because it induces the decomposition water...
Every year the oil refining industry consumes thousand tons of fluid catalytic cracking zeolite from E-cat generated in (FCC) unit. In present paper, a new process for recycling catalysts (FCCCs) is presented. The process, previously tested at laboratory scale, was simulated by SuperPro Designer (FCCCs, also known as equilibrium catalysts, E-cat), which are mainly landfilled. Their intrinsic value quite low and content rare earth elements (REEs), lanthanum cerium oxides, around 3%wt....
Abstract Over the past few decades, scientific community has developed an increasing interest in high-performance water treatment systems based on cavitational processes. Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) is one of promising technologies for wastewater treatment, especially dyeing solutions, since it shows high efficiency treating dyes, even at low concentrations. Both strategies have been shown to be efficient ways get rid pathogenic bacteria by disinfecting waters and achieving mineralization...
The paper is focused on the recovery of zinc and manganese from alkaline zinc-carbon spent batteries. Metals are extracted by sulphuric acid leaching in presence citric as reducing agent.

Typical methods for the treatment of waste pickling solutions include precipitation by alkaline reagents, most commonly calcium hydroxide. As a result, large volumes galvanic sludge form, containing iron, calcium, sulphates, and relatively small quantity zinc (<20%), making Zn recovery not profitable. In summary, state-of-the-art galvanization processes entail loss valuable metals irrational expensive handling spent (SPSs). The resulting conclusion is that there room significant...
