ADVANCED OXIDATION PROCESSES COUPLED TO NANOFILTRATION MEMBRANES WITH CATALYTIC FE0 NANOPARTICLES IN SYMMETRIC AND ASYMMETRIC POLYELECTROLYTE MULTILAYERS

Advanced Oxidation Processes Coupled to Nanofiltration Membranes with Catalytic Fe0 Nanoparticles in Symmetric and Asymmetric Polyelectrolyte Multilayers

The in situ synthesis of Fe0 particles using poly-(acrylic acid) (PAA) is an effective tool for fabricating catalytic membranes relevant to advanced oxidation processes (AOPs).Through their synthesis in polyelectrolyte multilayer-based nanofiltration membranes, it becomes possible to reject and degrade organic micropollutants simultaneously.In this

Vibrio cholerae Invasion Dynamics of the Chironomid Host Are Strongly Influenced by Aquatic Cell Density and Can Vary by Strain

ABSTRACT Cholera has been a human scourge since the early 1800s and remains a global public health challenge, caused by the toxigenic strains of the bacterium Vibrio cholerae.In its aquatic reservoirs, V.cholerae has been shown to live in association with various arthropod hosts, including the chironomids, a diverse insect family commonly found in
