Cyanotoxins are toxic substances produced by cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae, which can proliferate in water bodies under conditions like high nutrient levels and warm temperatures. There are over 1,118 different cyanotoxins identified globally in freshwater environments across 66 countries, illustrating the widespread nature of this ...
These, along with antibiotic resistant bacteria, get into municipal and hospital wastewaters, and may be spread into water sources by inefficient disinfection. Antimicrobial photodynamic treatment (aPDT) may be an alternative to tackle the issue of antimicrobial resistance spread. ...
Reduction of total organic carbon (TOC) is critical for a number of industries who use ultrapure water, such as microelectronics, pharmaceuticals and power industries. ...
Effective hand hygiene reduces the risk of meat contamination and the transmission of foodborne disease Clean hands are essential to health and effective handwashing is one of the simplest ways to prevent the spread of germs. Hand hygiene is particularly important in minimizing food safety risks along food animal chains, as there are many diseases that can be transmitted to humans from polluted ...
Hence, CPR training is indispensable for people in the aviation industry. Lifeguards and Water Sports Instructors Lifeguards and water sports instructors have a high risk of drowning incidents due to the nature of their workplace. ...
Water Quality Enhancement: Ozone’s powerful oxidizing properties make it invaluable in maintaining water quality. ...
Although conventional wastewater treatment processes partly remove API’s, EC’s and EDCs, residual levels can remain in the effluent stream. At Coftec, we work with a number of technology vendors including Arvia Technology Ltd who have developed the Nyex Rosalox™ water treatment system. The Nyex Rosalox™ ...

The swift spread of the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) across the globe has resulted in unexpected and at times, under planned for, impacts. In some countries, the outbreak has moved businesses to halt on-site operations and urged employees to work from home. The water industry, however, is quickly adapting to the new reality and leveraging remote capabilities to continue supplying clean and safe ...
Application in light chemical industry The use of enzyme engineering in the light chemical industry mainly includes: detergent manufacturing, fur industry, gelatin manufacturing, collagen fiber manufacturing, toothpaste and cosmetics production, papermaking, photosensitive material production, waste water treatment and feed processing. 3. Medical ...
The EnviroTower system allowed operator to cycle up the water system saving over 12% water and eliminated need of hazardous chemicals by over 92%. ...
Interview on Oxygen Supply During the Pandemic Inmatec oxygen generators are designed and manufactured in Germany and distributed worldwide through distribution and service companies. Benjamin Popp, sales manager at Inmatec, tells us more about the positioning of this company in the health sector and its battle against the ...
But at the same time, the more I learn the more I realize how connected and integrated so many of the approaches to treatment of the human body really are. I have been through 40+ years of debate and discovery around mechanical, fascial, postural, functional, movement-based, neurological and psychological models of assessment and treatment, all of which claim not ...
Researchers have developed a recyclable, adsorbent membrane that gives hope for large-scale treatment When we flush, we expect to never encounter the contents again, but the truth of the matter is that pharmaceuticals dissolved in urine or simply discarded in a toilet, tub, or sink frequently make their way into our drinking water supply and the food chain. ...
In this study we evaluated (1) the efficacy of a protocol that combines hydrogen peroxide (shock treatment) and ICX® tablets (continuous treatment) for the control of microbial contamination in dental unit water lines, and (2) the in vitro antimicrobial activity of ICX® tablets on collection and wild strains isolated from dental chair output ...
Water along roughly 4,000 kilometers (about 2,500 miles) of China’s coastline was surveyed and 90 sediment samples were taken. ...
In many coastal watersheds and ecosystems, rivers discharging to estuaries receive waters from domestic wastewater treatment plants resulting in the release and distribution of pharmaceuticals to the marine environment. ...
Concentrations of APIs in the waste water effluent from the institutions were measured to assess the correlation between consumption and emission and to determine the reliability of emissions predictions, and thereby to compare emissions from the different institutions and from households. ...
High levels of Crypto passed through filters and were not eliminated by water treatments in Milwaukee in 1993, resulting in the largest documented waterborne disease occurrence in U.S. history. Concerned parents should also make sure their water is free of certain deposits that can be picked up after leaving the treatment ...
