As(III) oxidation and Cr(VI) reduction insight in an indigenous mixed culture of anaerobic bacteria from a local environment

Igboamalu, Tony Ebuka; Chirwa, Evans M.N. (The Italian Association of Chemical Engineering, 2017)

Transition metal and metalloid oxyanions such as Cr-compound (CrO4-2) and As-compound (H3AsO3) are common pollutants routinely detected in effluent waste streams from the mining industry around the world. Biological treatment ...
Biological U(VI) reduction in a fixed-bed bioreactor using radiotoxic tolerant mixed-culture of bacteria

Mtimunye, Phalazane Johanna; Chirwa, Evans M.N. (The Italian Association of Chemical Engineering, 2018)

Nuclear energy has been proposed as an alternative energy source in the bid to reduce carbon emissions that results from fossil fuel. Hexavalent uranium [U(VI)] is the most abandoned radioactive waste discharged from nuclear ...
Phenol degrading and chromium (VI) reducing biofilm system : effect of shock-loading

Matsena, Mpumelelo Thomas; Igboamalu, Tony Ebuka; Chirwa, Evans M.N. (The Italian Association of Chemical Engineering, 2018)

Hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] which are discharged together with organic pollutants in effluent streams from industry pose a health hazard to humans. The present study observed the reduction of Cr(VI) in presence of phenol ...
