Sewage sludge-based adsorbents: a review of their production, properties and use in water treatment applications.
TL;DR: This paper seeks to review the means of production, the characteristics and the potential applications of sewage sludge-based adsorbents (SBAs), and suggests that chemical activation utilising alkali metal hydroxides is the most effective technique for producing high surface area SBAs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Activated Carbon as an Electron Acceptor and Redox Mediator during the Anaerobic Biotransformation of Azo Dyes
TL;DR: Novel role of AC as redox mediator in accelerating the reductive transformation of pollutants as well as a terminal electron acceptor in the biological oxidation of an organic substrate is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioregeneration of activated carbon: A review
Özgür Aktaş,Ferhan Çeçen +1 more
TL;DR: The enhancement of biological treatment by activated carbon, the definition and mechanisms of biological regeneration, the relationship between adsorption reversibility and bioregeneration, the factors affecting biore Generation, the methods for determination and quantification ofBioregeneration and the mathematical models of biore generation are addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradation of azo dyes by bacteria inoculated on solid media
TL;DR: A mechanism for dye degradation is proposed in which anaerobic and aerobic microniches in the PAC particle perform cleavage of the azo bond and oxidation of the amines formed in the same biocatalytic particle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regeneration of carbonaceous adsorbents. Part II: Chemical, Microbiological and Vacuum Regeneration
Francisco Salvador,Nicolas Martin-Sanchez,Ruth Sánchez-Hernández,M. Jesus Sanchez-Montero,Carmen Izquierdo +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, a double-criterion is proposed to allow clear and rigorous classification of current and future regeneration methods, based on the traditional division which distinguishes among Thermal, Chemical and Microbiological Regeneration, and a fourth major group, Vacuum Regeneration is added.

Relation between Food Concentration and Surface for Bacterial Growth.
H. Heukelekian,A. Heller +1 more
TL;DR: Stark, Stadler and McCoy (1938) found that in support of Zobell's results, measurable amounts of organic matter accumulated over a period of hours on the surface of chemically clean glass slides suspended in sterile lake water, indicating that the accumulation of organic Matter is independent of and precedes bacterial growth.
