Novel Submerged Photocatalytic Membrane Reactor for Treatment of Olive Mill Wastewaters
A new hybrid photocatalytic membrane reactor that can easily be scaled-up was designed, assembled and used to test photocatalytic membranes developed using the sol−gel technique. Extremely high removals of total suspended solids, chemical oxygen demand, total organic carbon, phenolic and v...
