    Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) applied to leather tanning wastewater
    (Elsevier, 2024) Cardito, Alice; Lofrano, Giusy; Albarano, Luisa; Meric, Sureyya; Sacco, Olga; Valeriani, Federica; Vaiano, Vincenzo
    Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are a class of chemical treatments, characterized by the production of hydroxyl radicals, powerful and non-selective produce oxidants capable of degrading a wide range of organic compounds. The application of AOPs for leather tannery wastewater treatment has gained a growing interest in the last decades. However, several constraints to full-scale applications remain still unsolved. This chapter reports and discusses recent studies dealing with the treatment of leather tannery wastewater by AOPs. © 2025 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Antimicrobial Effectiveness of Innovative Photocatalysts: A Review
    (MDPI, 2022) Lofrano, Giusy; Ubaldi, Francesca; Albarano, Luisa; Carotenuto, Maurizio; Vaiano, Vincenzo; Valeriani, Federica; Libralato, Giovanni
    Waterborne pathogens represent one of the most widespread environmental concerns. Conventional disinfection methods, including chlorination and UV, pose several operational and environmental problems; namely, formation of potentially hazardous disinfection by-products (DBPs) and high energy consumption. Therefore, there is high demand for effective, low-cost disinfection treatments. Among advanced oxidation processes, the photocatalytic process, a form of green technology, is becoming increasingly attractive. A systematic review was carried out on the synthesis, characterization, toxicity, and antimicrobial performance of innovative engineered photocatalysts. In recent decades, various engineered photocatalysts have been developed to overcome the limits of conventional photocatalysts using different synthesis methods, and these are discussed together with the main parameters influencing the process behaviors. The potential environmental risks of engineered photocatalysts are also addressed, considering the toxicity effects presented in the literature. © 2022 by the authors.
