Olive oil wastewater treatment with the use of an electrolysis system

An Insight To Pullulan: A Biopolymer in Pharmaceutical Approaches

“…glucose and sucrose, but the results from the agro-industrial wastes have shown that higher or similar yield of pullulan can be obtained as compared to conventional substrate [27]. Also, pullulan produced by such fermentations is characterized by heterogenecityof both composition and molecular weight [28]. Following are the agro-industrial wastes which have been used for the production of pullulans:…”

“… Grape skin pulp [28]  Molasses [28]  Starch waste [29]  Olive oil wastes [28,30]  Carob pod [22] …”

Influence of Electro-oxidation Pretreatment on Anaerobic Digestion Bioprocess

“…TSS in crude OMW is an unsettlable suspended matter, which presents a major difficulty in the treatment and handling of OMW. During EO treatment, pH increased from 4 to 7.6, which may be attributed to the smaller production of H + than OH - [17] and the reduction in phenol concentration. Indeed, phenols are acids in liquids, and their removal from a solution reduces its acidity.…”

Treatment of simulated wastewater containing n-phenyl-n-isopropyl-p-phenylenediamine using electrolysis system with Ti/TiRuO2 electrodes

“…However, if the main part of the organic compounds present in a wastewater is persistent, microorganisms are not able to degrade it and the biological processes are not suitable. Depending on their quantity and their ecotoxicological behavior, the recalcitrant organics have to be removed by additional treatment (Gulyas, 1997;Chiang et al, 1997;Israilides et al, 1997;Panizza et al, 2000;Moraes et al, 2000;Janssen and Koene, 2002). Electrochemical treatment is a powerful tool for the purification of this kind of wastewater.…”

“…The electrochemical methods have been successfully used for the treatment of wastewater from slaughterhouse (Marconato et al, 1998), textile wastewater (Naumczyk et al, 1996;Shen et al, 2001;Xiong et al, 2001), tannery wastewater Szpyrkowics et al, 2001), domestic wastewater (Vlyssides et al, 2002), and biorefractory organics (Saracco et al, 2001). After the electrochemical treatment of wastewater containing persistent compound, the biodegradation and toxicity can be improved Chiang et al, 1997;Israilides et al, 1997;Angelis et al, 1998). The present study investigated the degradation of a simulated wastewater containing the compound nphenyl -n -isopropyl -p -phenylenediamine (commercial name is Flexzone 3P), using Ti/TiRuO 2 electrodes.…”
