Characterization and Modeling of Selected Antiandrogens and Pharmaceuticals in Highly Impacted Reaches of Grand River Watershed in Southern Ontario
Arlos, Maricor Jane (University of Waterloo, 2013-10-01)Endocrine disruption and high occurrences of intersex have been observed in wild fish associated with wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents in the urbanized reaches of the Grand River watershed located in southern ... -
Effect of Background Water Matrices on Pharmaceutical and Personal Care Product Removal by UV-LED/TiO2
Fattahi, Azar; Jaciw-Zurakowsky, Ivana; Srikanthan, Nivetha; Bragg, Leslie M.; Liang, Robert; Zhou, Norman Y.; Servos, Mark. R.; Arlos, Maricor Jane (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021-04-30)In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of UV-LED-irradiated TiO2 in removing 24 commonly detected PPCPs in two water matrices (municipal wastewater effluent and Suwannee River NOM–synthetic water) and compared their ... -
Modeling the emission, transport, and fate of key micropollutants and their treatment using novel titanium dioxide nanomaterials
Arlos, Maricor (University of Waterloo, 2018-01-31)Endocrine disruptive effects in fish have been observed in many watersheds worldwide. The presence of intersex (ova-testes) in particular is well-documented in the Grand River watershed in southern Ontario, and is associated ... -
TiO2 membranes for concurrent photocatalytic organic degradation and corrosion protection
Liang, Robert; Hatat-Fraile, Melisa; He, Horatio; Arlos, Maricor; Servos, Mark. R.; Zhou, Y. Norman (Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2015-10-09)Organic contaminants and corrosion in water treatment effluents are a current global problem and the development of effective methods to facilitate the removal of organic contaminants and corrosion control strategies are ... -
Utilizing UV-LED pulse width modulation on TiO2 advanced oxidation processes to enhance the decomposition efficiency of pharmaceutical micropollutants
Liang, Robert; Van Leuwen, Jocelyn C.; Bragg, Leslie M.; Arlos, Maricor; Li Chun Fong, Lena C. M.; Schneider, Olivia M.; Jaciw-Zurakowsky, Ivana; Fattahi, Azar; Rathod, Shasvat; Peng, Peng; Servos, Mark R.; Zhou, Norman Y. (Elsevier, 2019-04-01)The presence of pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) in aquatic systems has been a growing cause for concern. Advanced oxidation processes such as UV/TiO2 (ultraviolet light/titanium dioxide) can break down ...
