In-Depth Information
1. Nitrate could be removed from groundwater using a nano-iron-bacteria
denitrifying system with little toxic by-products generation under anaerobic
conditions.
2. Biochemical-enhanced photocatalytic oxidation processes have achieved good
results with respect to exhaustive treatment of wastewater containing antibiotics.
3. The quality of effluent from the combined use of microorganisms and
nanofiltration is in full compliance with the requirements of drip irrigation.
