Physico‐chemical processes

Abstract

The review scans research articles published in 2018 on physico‐chemical processes for water and wastewater treatment. The paper includes eight sections, that is, membrane technology, granular filtration, flotation, adsorption, coagulation/flocculation, capacitive deionization, ion exchange, and oxidation. The membrane technology section further divides into six parts, including microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, reverse osmosis/forward osmosis, and membrane distillation.Practitioner points Totally 266 articles on water and wastewater treatment have been scanned; The review is sectioned into 8 major parts; Membrane technology has drawn the widest attention from the research community.

Waste Cleaning Waste: Combining Alginate with Biowaste‐Derived Substances in Hydrogels and Films for Water Cleanup

“…Access to safe water is a concern for a large part of the global population and both climate change and the increasing pollution are exacerbating the problem [1] . Traditional solutions to purify water include biodegradation, adsorption, filtration, flocculation, membrane separations, and ion‐exchange resins [2, 3] . Tertiary treatments performed at the final stage of water depuration increasingly incorporate innovative materials and methods to bring the effluent quality to the desired level of purity before water is reused, recycled, or discharged into the environment [4] .…”

A chemometric approach based on response surface methodology for optimization of antibiotic and organic dyes removal from water samples

“…Various methods have been proposed for the removal of antibiotics and dyes, including chemical oxidation, precipitation, distillation, ion exchange, membrane processes, reverse osmosis, and adsorption processes [ 14 – 19 ]. These methods, however, come with challenges and drawbacks such as high costs, low efficiency, prolonged processing times, generation of secondary pollutants, and more [ 20 , 21 ]. To overcome these issues, research is underway to find more suitable methods, among which surface adsorption processes stand out.…”
