Abstract Micropollutants are persistent and hazardous materials in low concentrations (ng L −1 –μg ), including substances such as pharmaceuticals, personal care products industrial chemicals. The advancement of analytical chemistry has allowed for the detection micropollutants; however, an efficient economical treatment solution is yet to be installed. Fungal laccase been a successful biocatal...

Since active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are directly related to human health, monitoring and quantifying them in the environment is a crucial challenging issue. Using capillary-zone electrophoresis (CZE), four frequently used fluoroquinolones (FQs), ciprofloxacin, sparfloxacin, moxifloxacin, gatifloxacin, were efficiently isolated measured industrial wastewater. Solid-phase extraction (S...

Abstract In this work, a novel Ni/ZnO-MnO2 electrode was fabricated by utilizing spent zinc-manganese batteries and then applied to the electrochemical treatment of ammonia-containing wastewater. The obtained characterized scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, linear voltammetry, suggesting that had flower-like structure showed high oxygen evolution potential activity. performance Zn...

The spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is a growing problem and a public health issue. In recent decades, various genetic mechanisms involved in the spread of resistance genes among bacteria have been identified. Integrons - genetic elements that acquire, exchange, and express genes embedded within gene cassettes (GC) - are one of these mechanisms. Integrons are widely distributed, especia...

pharmaceutical industry is currently undergoing a transient phase with new orientation. loss of financial resources, presence of new therapeutic agents and increasing cost of research and development have called for a full.scale restructuring within the pharmaceutical industry to retain even the most basic competitiveness. the development of new technologies has been as one way out of the dilem...

In this study, aerobic digestion of tannery industry wastewater was carried out using mixed culture obtained from common effluent treatment plant treating tannery wastewater. The effect of pH, temperature, inoculum concentration, agitation speed and initial substrate concentration on the reduction of organic matters were found. The optimum conditions for COD reduction was found to be pH 7 (60%)...
