TL;DR: This review attempts to define the steps still required for FO to reach full-scale potential in wastewater treatment and water reclamation by discussing current novelties, bottlenecks and future perspectives of FO technology in the wastewater sector.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the adsorption capacities are well-related to surface hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity and structural features, e.g. micropore volume and pore size of high-silica zeolites, as well as the properties of OMPs.

TL;DR: This current work presents in details the interactions of cations and NOM in the environment, the preference of cation for each functional group and the possible competition between cations for binding sites, as well as the possible impacts of the presence of cATIONS, NOM, or their complex on water treatment processes.

TL;DR: The removal of NOM fractions, specifically humic substances, increased with an increase in water content of the investigated IEX resins and with a decrease in resin size, and the best-performing Iex resins consisted of the smallest resin and/or those with the highest water content.

TL;DR: Both the FCM and ATP data were able to describe the microbiology of the systems accurately, providing meaningful process data when combined with other parameters such as dissolved organic carbon analysis, and highlighted a complimentary value of the two independent methods.

TL;DR: This study reviews the literature on UV disinfection and extracts quantitative information about the relation between the inactivation of micro-organisms and the applied UV fluence, and shows that UV is effective against all waterborne pathogens.

TL;DR: Size-exclusion chromatography in combination with organic carbon detection (SEC-OCD) is an established method to separate the pool of NOM into major fractions of different sizes and chemical functions and to quantify these on the basis of organic carbon.
