Supercritical water gasification of sewage sludge by continuous flow tubular reactor: A pilot scale study
(Elsevier, 2020)
Treatment and disposal of sewage sludge constitute one of the major problems of wastewater treatment plants due to high water content and more stringent environmental regulations. Supercritical water gasification (SCWG) ...
Chemical composition and hazardous effects of leachate from the active municipal solid waste landfill surrounded by farmlands
(MDPI AG, 2020)
Landfill leachates are potentially harmful to the environment and to human health.The objective of this study was to characterize leachates in order to analyze whether a relationshipexists between the stored ...
Temperature influence on ordinary concrete modified with fly ashes from thermally conversed municipal sewage sludge strength parameters
(MDPI, 2020)
Concrete is the most commonly used structural material, without which modern construction
could not function. It is a material with a high potential to adapt to specific operating conditions.
The use of this potential ...
Removal of acid yellow 17 from textile wastewater by adsorption and heterogeneous persulfate oxidation
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2020)
Azo dyes commonly used in various industries have a stable and toxic structure. Wastewater containing AY17 dye as a model contaminant was investigated in terms of color and COD removal by both adsorption and persulfate ...
Investigation on microbial biodeterioration of the stone monuments in Yildiz Technical University—Yildiz Campus—Istanbul—Turkey
(Springer, 2020)
The stone samples of historical monuments around Yıldız Technical University Besiktas Campus were investigated using DNA extraction-PCR-DGGE methods, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), XRF, and other analytical methods ...
Treatment assessment of road runoff water in zones filled with ZVI, activated carbon and mineral materials
(MDPI AG, 2020)
Reducing the discharge of contaminants present in runoff water is important for a clean environment. This paper analyses field test results of three pilot-scale horizontal runoff water treatment zones filled with mixtures ...
Immobilization of potentially toxic elements (PTE) by mineral-based amendments: Remediation of contaminated soils in post-industrial sites
(MDPI AG, 2020)
In many post-industrial sites, the high contents and high mobility of different potentially toxic elements (PTEs) make the soils unsuitable for effective management and use. Therefore, immobilization of PTE seems to be the ...
Impacts of chemical-assisted thermal pretreatments on methane production from fruit and vegetable harvesting wastes: process optimization
(NLM (Medline), 2020)
The increasing population creates excess pressure on the plantation and production of fruits and vegetables across the world. Consumption demand during the whole year has made production compulsory in the covered production ...
Successful outcome of phytostabilization in Cr(VI) contaminated soils amended with alkalizing additives
(MDPI AG, 2020)
This study analysed the effect of three alkalizing soil amendments (limestone, dolomite chalcedonite) on aided phytostabilization with Festuca rubra L. depending on the hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) level in contaminated ...
Isolation and ıdentification of endosulfan degrading native bacterial consortium from agricultural soils
(Springer, 2020)
The environmental impact of chlorinated pesticides, including endosulfan, is not only caused by their persistency in the eco-system but also from their toxic effects on off-target living organisms. In this study, three ...
