Electrochemical oxidation of bisphenol A. Application to the removal of bisphenol A using a carbon fiber electrode

Refractory organic pollutants and toxicity in pulp and paper mill wastewaters

“…For example, chemical oxidation methods require large amounts of reactive chemicals but electrochemical methods do not require harmful reagents. In addition, electrochemical reactions are relatively independent of the conditions of wastewater and require basically only the current to the electrode (Kuramitz et al 2001).…”

Study of Removal Effect of Bisphenol A and .BETA.-Estradiol by Porous Carbon

“…Although satisfactory knowledge to what degree estradiol or estrone of the natural female hormone influences aquatic life has not been obtained, these hormones of comparatively high concentration have been detected in various environments. 1) Removal methods of EDCs from water, such as electrochemical methods, 2,3) and a method using a biological membrane 4) have been reported. Although the removal performance for EDCs by activated carbon has also been reported, [5][6][7][8][9][10] Nakanishi et al 11) has only reported the relationship between the carbonization temperature of woody carbon, such as bamboo charcoal and sugi charcoal, and the removal performance.…”

Remoção De Bisfenol-a Por Planta Piloto De Adsorção

“…O tratamento de BPA em soluções aquosas tem sido investigado usando uma série de técnicas, entre as quais destacam-se a coagulação combinada com adsorção (Joseph et al, 2013), a osmose inversa (Bolong et al, 2009), a oxidação eletroquímica (Kuramitz et al, 2001), os processos Fenton e sono-Fenton (Ioan et al, 2005), ozonização (Lee et al, 2003) e a fotólise (Chen et al, 2006). Entre as técnicas existentes, a adsorção tornou-se uma operação de uso crescente pela indústria por ser considerada um processo adequado para separação e purificação de misturas químicas e, principalmente, por ser um meio de separação alternativo para situações onde efluentes apresentam substâncias poluentes.…”
