TL;DR: The marine microalgae species Nannochloropsis oculata was able to uptake nutrients from wastewater to grow but with less efficiency, indicating the need ofmicroalgae acclimation or process optimisation to achieve high nutrient removals.

TL;DR: The use of carbon materials as catalytic support or direct catalyst in catalytic wet air oxidation (WAO) of organic pollutants is reviewed in this paper, where important engineering aspects including the characterisation, activity and stability of carbon catalysts, process performance, reaction kinetics and reactor modelling are discussed.

TL;DR: Isochrysis galbana and Selenastrum capricornutum, marine and freshwater microalgae species respectively, were co-digested with sewage sludge under mesophilic and thermophilic conditions and the substrates and the temperatures significantly influenced biogas production.

TL;DR: Generally, the performance of the catalysts was better when the pH of the feed solution was increased, and the highest residual phenol conversion was obtained for the ZnO-CuO, which was significantly higher than that obtained with the 10% CuO catalyst used as reference.

TL;DR: In this paper, the anaerobic reduction of azo dye acid orange 7 (A07) was investigated in a continuous upflow packed-bed reactor (UPBR) containing biological activated carbon (BAC).
