Microplastics are pollutants highly stable to complete biodegradation and require more specific separation processes for their removal. Classification potential remediation technologies, such as membrane technology, discussed in this review.

photodegradation of dicamba, an ionizable herbicide, using tio2 supported on hzsm-11 zeolite was investigated. four photocatalysts with different weight percentages (wt%) of tio2 were evaluated: 3%, 10%, 30% and 50%. the effects of the catalyst concentration, the initial ph value and the repeatability of the photocatalytic activity after multiple cycles of reuse were also evaluated. results sho...

hexavalent chromium is mobile and hazardous in the environment. electrokinetic remediationof chromium (iv)-contaminated soils is intended either to remove or to reduce cr (vi) to cr (iii). this studyexamines the effectiveness of utilizing edta and acetic acid solutions as alternative electrolytes in theelectrokinetic (ek) process, with coupled nano-scale zero-valent iron (nzvi) as a barrier for...

The past 60+ years of global nuclear activity has resulted a signifcant legacy radioactive contaminated lands which have high economic costs associated with their remediation. Developing clean-up technologies that...

BACKGROUND Cognitive remediation (CR) is a psychological therapy, effective in improving cognitive performance and functioning in people with schizophrenia. As the therapy becomes more widely implemented within mental health services its longevity and uptake is likely to depend on its feasibility and acceptability to service users and clinicians. AIMS To assess the feasibility and acceptabili...

Www.omh.state.ny.usomhwebcogdysmanualcogdyshndbk.pdf.Abstract. Purpose: Cognitive deficits in schizophrenia mainly affect memory, attention and executive functions. Cognitive remediation is a technique derived from.Cognitive remediation therapy ai...

In a World where the main role of Information and Communication Technologies still seems to be the one of connecting people over distance, a process of remediation is slowly showing how new ICTs also have the opportunity to improve the connection between individuals and their immediate surroundings. This paper presents an attempt to understand how this emerging set of technologies, later addres...

by MARISSA C. MERKER, M.S.C.E. Washington State University August 2010 Chair: Richard J. Watts Persulfate is a promising in situ chemical oxidation treatment (ISCO) for the remediation of low-permeability strata because it is more stable in the subsurface and can rapidly degrade recalcitrant contaminants compared to other technologies. ISCO technologies include catalyzed hydrogen peroxide propa...

Nanotechnology is an emerging field that covers a wide range of applications. Different types of nanomaterials are used in different sectors like biology, medicine, agriculture, pharmacy etc. The challenging task of the 21 Century is to clean up the contaminants of the environment by ecofriendly, green and sustainable and economically adoptable technologies. The need for such technologies is mo...

Oil spill components include a range of toxic saturated, aromatic and polar hydrocarbons, including pyrene and anthracene. Such contaminants harm natural ecosystems, adversely affect human health and negatively impact tourism and the fishing industries. Current physical, chemical and biological remediation technologies are often unable to completely remove recalcitrant oil spill components, whi...
