This study compares the performance of a microfiltration membrane, made by silicon carbide (SiC) and an ultrafiltration zirconia (ZrO2), in treatment wastewater from washing machine designed to clean industrial tents. The filtration deionized water, containing model microplastics (i.e., nylon fiber), was performed. followed real single cycle tents, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) textile. parameters membranes physical-chemical wastewater, including concentration shape tent fibers (PVC), were...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are used in several industrial applications, such as textile manufacturing, known "forever chemicals" due to their spread, stability (eco-)toxicity, gaining increasing concern. To avoid PFAS spread the environment, reducing environmental risk on receiving surface water, prevention removal strategies should be implemented at multiple levels, comprising both factories municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). This study presents an integrated...
An extensive research programme has been carried out on advanced treatment of secondary effluents discharged by centralized activated sludge plants fed mixed textile/domestic in order to produce a final effluent suitable for reuse the textile factories. Activated carbon adsorption or membrane filtration (ranging from microfiltration reverse osmosis) have investigated at pilot plant scale determine most economical and performing treatment. The increase concentration refractory pollutants...
Wastewater-based epidemiology has emerged as a complementary tool for the monitoring of COVID-19 pandemic waves and circulation viral variants. The selection, standardization, dynamics different SARS-CoV-2 RNA targets in wastewater requires further investigation. In present study, 106 samples were collected over 24-month period from treatment plant Sondrio, north Italy, analyzed presence through quantification ORF1b, N1, N3 gene via one-step real-time qPCR. general, three demonstrated...
Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous and increasing in quantity, causing raising concern. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) a point source for both aquatic environments soil, through the use of sludge agriculture. Understanding fate MPs within wastewater lines plant and, possibly, enhancing their removal will improve safe reuse water effluent biorefinery concept application. This study investigates effects alkaline-thermal pretreatment sludge, followed by anaerobic digestion, on physical...
Wastewater-based environmental surveillance enables the monitoring of SARS-CoV-2 dynamics within populations, offering critical epidemiological insights. Numerous workflows for tracking have been developed globally, underscoring need interlaboratory comparisons to ensure data consistency and comparability. An inter-calibration test was conducted among laboratories network in wastewater samples across Lombardy region (Italy). The aimed evaluate reliability identify potential sources...
