Activated carbons impregnated with iron oxide nanoparticles for enhanced removal of bisphenol A and natural organic matter

TL;DR: Iron oxide impregnation enabled the BPA uptake to be maintained in the presence of NOM, indicating that the hybrid adsorbent provided synergistic adsorption characteristics for BPA and NOM.

Phase transformation of crystalline iron oxides and their adsorption abilities for Pb and Cd

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a new perspective whether crystalline structures influence the adsorption of heavy metals on magnetic iron oxides synthesized by applying surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-templated strategy.

Hydraulic backwashing for low-pressure membranes in drinking water treatment: A review

TL;DR: In this paper, the backwash parameters of UF/MF membranes used in municipal water supplies are reviewed to provide more comprehensive data, which can improve backwash performance in full-scale drinking water and water reuse treatment plants.

Organic fouling behavior of superhydrophilic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) ultrafiltration membranes functionalized with surface-tailored nanoparticles: Implications for organic fouling in membrane bioreactors

TL;DR: In this article, a superhydrophilic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) ultrafiltration membrane functionalized via post-fabrication tethering of surface-tailored silica nanoparticles to poly(methacrylic acid)-grafted PVDF membrane surface was investigated.

Strategies for the management and treatment of coal seam gas associated water

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyse the options involved in both the water treatment and salt recovery processes in coal seam gas (CSG) in Queensland and highlight reinjection, brine concentration ponds, membrane techniques (membrane distillation, forward osmosis), thermal methods, electrodialysis, electRodialysis reversal, bipolar membrane electrodialsysis, wind assisted intensive evaporation, membrane crystallization, eutectic freeze crystallization and vapor compression.

Adsorption and desorption of natural organic matter on iron oxide: mechanisms and models.

TL;DR: Results indicated that ligand exchange between carboxyl/hydroxyl functional groups of NOM and iron oxide surfaces was the dominant interaction mechanism, especially under acidic or slightly acidic pH conditions.

Identification and understanding of fouling in low-pressure membrane (MF/UF) filtration by natural organic matter (NOM).

TL;DR: F Fouling by NOM was investigated by employing several innovative chemical and morphological analyses that support the notion that membrane roughness may be considered as a more important factor in membrane fouling by controlling interaction between molecules and the membrane surface, compared to the hydrophobic/hydrophilic character of membranes.

Fouling of Microfiltration and Ultrafiltration Membranes by Natural Waters

TL;DR: Although other studies have identified DOM as a major foulant during filtration of natural waters, this work shows that a small fraction of DOM may be responsible for fouling, and adsorption was demonstrated to be an important mechanism for fouled by colloids.

A critical review of dispersion in packed beds

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized and reviewed a great deal of information from the literature on dispersion in packed beds, and provided empirical correlations for the prediction of the dispersion coefficients (D T and D L) over the entire range of practical values of Sc and Pem.
