Assessing the environmental sustainability of light emitting diodes and conventional blacklight lamps for the treatment of bisphenol-A in water
Ultraviolet (UV) water treatment techniques currently employ blacklight (UV-BL) lamps, which are energy intensive, short living and contain toxic materials, damaging the environment. Light emitting diodes (UV-LEDs) can offer an environmentally friendly alternative to UV-BLs, however their environmental impacts for water treatment have not been quantified yet. This study aims at investigating the environmental sustainability of UV-LEDs for removin…
Removal of Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals from Water
The aim of this study is to examine the efficiency of biobased Spanish broom (SB) surface modified cellulose fibers to remove bisphenol A (BPA), a well-known endocrine disruptor, from water. Spanish brooms are flowering plants, which are native and abundant to Mediterranean regions. The functionalized fibers (FF) were found to have the best adsorption efficiency at pH 5, due to the optimal hydrophobic interaction between the FF fiber and BPA. Ads…
