This study aimed to evaluate the suitability of biochar produced by pyrolysis from recovered wastewater cellulose and activated biologically as an admixture in Constructed Wetlands (CWs) when applied a post-treatment step remove micropollutants (MPs) municipal effluent. Two planted vertical flow mesocosm CWs with cellulose-based admixtures different origins (plant residue toilet paper) were fed effluent representative for rural catchments. The results showed average MPs elimination 89.1 % 15...
The fate of glyphosate and its metabolite AminoMethylPhosponic acid (AMPA) was followed at the catchment Sûre river, mainly characterized by small population density medium-sized wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). A high concentration AMPA found in water samples collected inlet from different streams, industry being main contributor, while resulted domestic origin. two molecules were also monitored anaerobic digestion as supernatant produced after centrifugation (reject water). total...
Combining photo-Fenton and granular activated carbon (GAC) is an alternative to increase the feasibility of using in full scale. This work a preliminary study its viability at natural pH. Both technologies were applied separately compared with their combination, GAC filtration instead batch mode, achieve approach close The target compound considered this investigation was indigo carmine as hydroxyl radicals’ probe. results show that 80% removal could be achieved when 20 min treatment time...
Background: Micropollutants in bodies of water represent many challenges. We addressed these challenges by the application constructed wetlands, which advanced treatment technology for removal micropollutants from water. However, mechanisms specifically contribute to efficiency often remains unclear. Methods: Here, we focus on 27 bioremediation. For this, macrophytes Phragmites australis, Iris pseudacorus and Lythrum salicaria were taken established a special experimental set-up was...
The present research aims at giving an approach to the issue of surface water contamination due micropollutants in rural areas. catchment Sûre river was selected as a reference case for Greater Region, characterized mainly by settlements with low population density, small bodies and small- medium-sized wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). For these WWTPs, conventional technical solutions micropollutant elimination are not suitable; therefore, adapted mitigation strategy is needed prevent...
As a consequence of worldwide increase energy costs, the efficient use sewage sludge as renewable resource must be considered, even for smaller wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) with design capacities between 10,000 and 50,000 population equivalent (PE). To find lower limit an economical conversion aerobic stabilisation plant into anaerobic plant, we derived cost functions specific capital costs operating savings. With these tools, it is possible to evaluate if would promising further...
The challenge of microcontaminants (MCs) in wastewater effluent has been addressed by using different technologies, including advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) and adsorption. This work evaluates the benefits synergies combining these two processes. AOPs were photo-Fenton UV/H2O2 operated under natural pH but with reagents dosages, lamps, chelating agents. Chelating agents used at analytical (ethylenediamine-N,N-disuccinic acid citric acid) technical grade (citric to simulate scaling-up...
The focus of this study is the characterization unconventional sand-based substrates used in our previous project EmiSûre, (Interreg Greater Region (German federal states Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland, Grand Duchy Luxembourg, regions Wallonia Lorraine from Belgium France, respectively), 2017-2021). aimed to develop test alternative, nature-based technologies for elimination micropollutants (MPs) municipal wastewater. For characterization, two approaches were chosen. In first approach,...
The development of electric vehicles (EVs) is happening around the world with different goals. Many researchers have worked on various aspects EVs from technological and supporting policy issues to required infrastructures. However, arguing proper time realize spreading in each region neglected. For this purpose, performance two contextual factors growth investigated. Low carbon electricity generation greenhouse gases emissions are selected parameters, which explored context nine European...
