  2. 21. Sludge-derived char : utilisation as a metal sorbent in dilute wastewaters

    Author : Ida Sylwan; Eva Thorin; Lena Johansson Westholm; Konrad Koch; Mälardalens universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sorption; adsorption; sludge; biosolids; metal; wastewater treatment; sorption; adsorption; slam; metaller; avloppsvattenrening; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Metal concentrations in soil and water have increased since the Industrial Revolution, which may have negative health and environmental effects. Metal pollution occurs, for instance, in municipal wastewater, industrial wastewater, and stormwater. Concentrations are often low, due to dilution. A common technology for metal removal is sorption.

  5. 23. Assemblies of Colloidal Hydrochar Nanoparticles and their Derived Activated Carbons for CO2 Sorption

    Author : Xia Wang; Niklas Hedin; Gunnar Svensson; Oren Regev; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; colloids; hydrothermal carbonization; glucose; directed assembly; reactive infiltration; templating; silicon carbide; tricopper silicide; redispersion; nanoparticles; chemical activation; activated carbons; CO2 sorption; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : Carbon-rich colloids are of great fundamental and technological interest and in this thesis, I tested a range of hypotheses and studied aspects of small hydrochar-based colloids and their colloidal and material chemistry. Crude hydrochar dispersions were synthesized by hydrothermal carbonization of glucose and purified by dialysis. READ MORE

  6. 24. From removal of organic micropollutants to municipal wastewater reuse - technological and social perspectives

    Author : Maria Takman; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wastewater reuse; Water reclamation; Organic micropollutants; Granular activated carbon; UV disinfection; Discourses;

    Abstract : In this thesis, wastewater reuse was investigated from technological and social perspectives, based onwhich the thesis was divided into two parts. In the first part, the removal of chemical and microbialcontaminants by full-scale and pilot-scale granular activated carbon (GAC) filters, in different processcombinations, was examined. READ MORE

  7. 25. The influence of soil and contaminant properties on the efficiency of physical and chemical soil remediation methods

    Author : Sofia Jonsson; Mats Tysklind; Peter Haglund; Staffan Lundstedt; Tuula Tuhkanen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fenton’s reagent; ozone; solvent washing; granular activated carbon; GAC; Persistent organic compounds; Persistenta organiska föreningar; Cardiology; kardiologi;

    Abstract :  A vast number of sites that have been contaminated by industrial activities have been identified worldwide. Many such sites now pose serious risks to humans and the environment. Given the large number of contaminated sites there is a great need for efficient, cost-effective  remediation methods. READ MORE
