TL;DR: Fossil fuel continued overuse and carbon emissions issues have prompted increased research efforts on sustainable and renewable energy sources as alternative to fossil fuels as discussed by the authors, including bio-fuels.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new type of membrane-like aerobic reactor was designed for the degradation of hydrocarbon-derived groundwater contaminants, which was recently tested for treating domestic wastewater, with performance similar to that of MBRs.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed and discussed current state-of-the-art technologies for pharmaceutically active compounds removal using membrane biological reactors (MBRs) and bioelectrochemical systems (BESs).

TL;DR: In this paper, two parallel MFC reactors were continuously operated for 2.5 months, fed with undiluted dairy wastewater, and the results showed that these types of industrial effluents can be treated by MFCs with high organic matter removal, recovering a maximum power density of over 27 W/m3.

TL;DR: The MEC system obtained almost complete nitrate removal under all conditions, while nitrite accumulation was recorded at nitrate loads higher than 100mgNO3-L-1, and the anolyte configuration in closed loop allowed the process to use less clean water, while guaranteeing identical performances as in other conventional configurations.
