Towards a Sustainable Future
Filipe, Susana; Mourão, Paulo Mira; Couto, Nazaré; Tranchida, DavidePublisher Copyright: © 2023 by the authors. Funding: This research received no external funding.; Plastic pollution has become a pressing environmental issue. The agricultural sector, in particular, is a significant contributor to this problem, given the widespread use of plastics in farming practices and a lack of and/or use of inefficient approaches for the recycling and valorization of agricultural plastic w...

Dionísio, Joana; Gonçalves, Cristiana; Guedes, Paula; Ribeiro, Alexandra B.; Couto, Nazaréproject CEMOWAS2 (SOE2/P5/F0505) UIDB/04085/2020 CEECIND/04210/2017; The present work aims to study the electrochemical (EC) process applied for the removal of contaminants of emergent concern (CECs) from wastewater after secondary treatment and the effect of the process on the total culturable microorganisms. The EC experiments were performed in a cylindrical open reactor with 500 mL of effluent, and a fixed c...
Hydrocarbon‐Contaminated Soil in Cold Climate Conditions
Ferreira, Ana Rita; Guedes, Paula; Mateus, Eduardo P.; Jensen, Pernille Erland; Ribeiro, Alexandra B.; Couto, NazaréOil is one of the more toxic pollutants in the environment. Due to the fragility of the Arctic environment to anthropogenic disturbances, the persistence and severity of ecological impacts from oil spills can be significant. The development of non‐invasive and sustainable solutions for soil remediation is a pressing problem. The feasibility of electrokinetic technology as a remediation strategy to enhance oil r...
Pharmaceutically Active Compounds in Wastewater Treatment Plants
Ferreira, Ana Rita; Guedes, Paula; Mateus, Eduardo P.; Ribeiro, Alexandra B.; Couto, NazaréEmerging organic contaminants are one of the main threats to the environment and society. The primary source of these contaminants in the environment is wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) that cannot eliminate all of these compounds. Pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) deserve special attention as new substances are constantly being developed, and the number of these compounds that reach consumers is inc...

Electrodialytic Arsenic Removal from Bulk and Pre-treated Soil
Ferreira, Ana Rita; Couto, Nazaré; Ribeiro, Alexandra B.; Ottosen, Lisbeth M.UID/AMB/04085/2019.; Arsenic (As) is a well-known highly toxic and carcinogenic element. A combination of electrodialytic remediation (EDR) after soil washing with flocculant addition targeting remediation of a soil polluted with As from wood preservation industry is the focus of this paper. The fine fraction (< 0.063 mm) from the washed soil after dry sieving was also considered. The EDR experiments were carri...
