• Enzymatic cometabolic biotransformation of organic micropollutants in wastewater treatment plants: A review 

  Kennes-Veiga, David M.; González-Gil, Lorena; Carballa, Marta; Lema, Juan M. (Bioresource Technology Volume 344, Part B, January 2022, 126291, 2021-11-06)

  Biotransformation of trace-level organic micropollutants (OMPs) by complex microbial communities in wastewater treatment facilities is a key process for their detoxification and environmental impact reduction. Therefore, ...

• Feeding composition and sludge retention time both affect (co-)metabolic biotransformation of pharmaceutical compounds in activated sludge systems 

  González-Gil, Lorena; Fernández-Fontaina, Eduardo; Singh, Randolph R.; Lema, Juan M.; Carballa, Marta; Aga, Diana S. (Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering Volume 9, Issue 2, April 2021, 105123, 2021-01-22)

  The role of heterotrophic and nitrifying microorganisms in the (co-)metabolic biotransformation of 10 pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) was investigated. To this aim, biotransformation assays were performed with ...

• Preparation of Synthetic Slays to Remove Phosphates and Ibuprofen in Water 

  Devesa-Rey, Rosa; Val, Jesús del; Feijoo, Jorge; González-Coma, José P.; Castiñeira, Gonzalo; González-Gil, Lorena (Water 2021, 13, 2394, 2021-08-30)

  The main objective of this study consists in the synthesis of a layered double hydroxide (LDH) clay doped with magnesium and aluminum in order to test the removal of phosphates and ibuprofen in water. Two different LDH ...

• Hybrid or mono nanofluids for convective heat transfer applications. A critical review of experimental research 

  Vallejo, Javier P.; Prado, José I.; Lugo, Luis (Applied Thermal Engineering 23, 25 february, 117926, 2021-12-11)

  Research on nanofluids has increased markedly in the last two decades. Initial attention has focused on conventional or mono nanofluids, dispersions of one type of solid nano-sized particles in a base fluid. Despite various ...

• Thermophysical, rheological and electrical properties of mono and hybrid TiB2/B4C nanofluids based on a propylene glycol:water mixture 

  Vallejo, Javier P.; Zyla, Gawel; Ansia, Lucas; Fal, Jacek; Traciak, Julian; Lugo, Luis (Powder Technology 395 (2022) 391-399, 2021-09-30)

  Hybrid nanofluids aim to further improve the characteristics of mono nanofluids. However, experimental studies that jointly explore the physical properties of hybrids and the corresponding mono nanofluids are missing. In ...
