Effective removal of cefazolin from hospital wastewater by the electrocoagulation process

TL;DR: The results showed that by increasing reaction time and input voltage, the removal efficiency of pollutants was increased and the highest removal Efficiency of cefazolin, COD, and turbidity occurred at neutral pH, which may have been related to the formation of aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3) flocs through the combination of aluminum released from the surface of the electrode and the hydroxides present in the solution.

Comparison of wastewater treatment plants based on the emissions of microbiological contaminants.

TL;DR: The novel elaboration of bioaerosol study results based on cluster analysis and determination of a dendrogram allowed to compare the studied WWTPs, which differed in terms of capacity from 350 to 200,000 m3/day.
