Integration of liquid-liquid membrane contactors and electrodialysis for ammonium recovery and concentration as a liquid fertilizer
(2020-04-13)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe accumulation of ammonia in water bodies can cause eutrophication and reduce water quality. Furthermore, 80% of the ammonia in the world is consumed as fertilizer, which makes it a resource that can be recovered under ... -
Integration of monopolar and bipolar electrodialysis for valorization of seawater reverse osmosis desalination brines: Production of strong acid and base
(2016-07-14)
Article
Open AccessWater scarcity in the Mediterranean basin has been solved by using seawater desalination reverse osmosis technology (SWD-RO). This technology produces brine which is discharged back into the sea resulting in an environmental ... -
Integration of monopolar and bipolar electrodialysis processes for tartaric acid recovery from residues of the winery industry
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2020-08-07)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyOne of the challenges of the circular economy is to implement the recovery of resources from the generated waste in each industrial sector. This valorization must be one of the main objectives at the industrial level to ... -
Integration of nanofiltration and bipolar electrodialysis for valorization of seawater desalination brines: production of drinking and waste water treatment chemicals
(2016-03-15)
Article
Open AccessNanofiltration (NF), as a selective Mg(II) and Ca(II) separation and concentration treatment, and electrodialysis with bipolar membranes (EDBM) were evaluated for the valorization of seawater desalination reverse osmosis ... -
Integration of nanofiltration membranes in recovery options of rare earth elements from acidic mine waters
(2019-02-10)
Article
Open AccessAcid mine waters (AMWs) are characterized by a low pH, high concentrations of transition metals (iron, copper, zinc), and the presence of highly valuable metals such as rare earth elements (REE) at lower concentrations. ... -
Integration of powdered Ca-activated zeolites in a hybrid sorption-membrane ultrafiltration process for phosphate recovery
(2016-05-04)
Article
Open AccessThe feasibility of continuous phosphate recovery, by adsorption on powdered Ca-activated zeolite (PAZ), was assessed in a hybrid sorption membrane ultrafiltration (UF) system. The objective was to explore the influence of ... -
Integration of selectrodialysis and ion-exchange for copper and zinc recovery from metallurgical process streams containing arsenic
(2018)
Conference lecture
Open Access -
Integration of selectrodialysis and solvent-impregnated resins for Zn(II) and Cu(II) recovery from hydrometallurgy effluents containing As(V)
(2019-12-15)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe main challenge for copper smelters is to ensure product quality under the constant increase in impurities (As, Se, Mo, Co, Zn, Sb, and Pb) in copper ores that has occurred over the years. The presence of toxic elements, ... -
Ion-exchange resins for metals recovery (Cu and Zn) from acidic mine waters
(2019)
Conference lecture
Open AccessEnvironmental and economic concerns over the last decades have introduced new research opportunities for the application of several techniques in order to improve the removal of contaminants, as well as to explore methods ... -
Latin American experiences in arsenic removal from drinking water and mining effluents
(CRC Press Taylor, 2016-02-17)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyDue to increasing demand for potable and irrigation water, water suppliers have to use alternative resources. They either have to regenerate wastewater or deal with contaminated surface water. This book brings together the ... -
Liquid fertilizer production by ammonia recovery from treated ammonia-rich regenerated streams using liquid-liquid membrane contactors
(2019-03-15)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe nitrogen load on urban wastewater should be considered as a secondary resource for nitrogen-based fertilizers. From this point of view, ammonia-rich streams obtained from a regeneration step with zeolites using 70-80 ... -
Metal recovery by ion-exchange resins from municipal incinerated bottom ash
(2019)
Conference lecture
Open AccessMunicipal waste incineration plants produce large amounts of bottom ashes, being higher year over year. In order to follow the circular economy scheme proposed by the EU, a recovery step is required to valorise the high ... -
Micro-coagulation effects on direct ultrafiltration of challenging raw river water
(2016-12-01)
Article
Open AccessBackground The feasibility and competitiveness of substituting the conventional pre-treatment of drinking water treatment plants (dioxichlorination, coagulation/flocculation, settling, sand filtration) by raw river water ... -
Monitoring UF membrane performance treating surface-groundwater blends: limitations of FEEM-PARAFAC on the assessment of the organic matter role
(2017-06-01)
