Dissipation, metabolism and sorption of pesticides used in fruit-packaging plants: Towards an optimized depuration of their pesticide-contaminated agro-industrial effluents
(2015)Wastewaters from the fruit-packaging industry constitute a serious point source contamination with pesticides. In the absence of effective depuration methods, they are discharged in municipal wastewater treatment plants ... -
Exploring the potential of biobeds for the depuration of pesticide-contaminated wastewaters from the citrus production chain: Laboratory, column and field studies
(2012)The high wastewater volumes produced during citrus production at pre- and post-harvest level presents serious pesticide point-source pollution for groundwater bodies. Biobeds are used for preventing such point-source ... -
Integrated biodepuration of pesticide-contaminated wastewaters from the fruit-packaging industry using biobeds: Bioaugmentation, risk assessment and optimized management
(2016)Wastewaters from fruit-packaging plants contain high loads of toxic and persistent pesticides and should be treated on site. We evaluated the depuration performance of five pilot biobeds against those effluents. In addition ... -
Key parameters and practices controlling pesticide degradation efficiency of biobed substrates
(2012)We studied the contribution of each of the components of a compost-based biomixture (BX), commonly used in Europe, on pesticide degradation. The impact of other key parameters including pesticide dose, temperature and ... -
Novel biomixtures based on local Mediterranean lignocellulosic materials: Evaluation for use in biobed systems
(2010)The composition of biomixtures strongly affect the efficacy of biobeds. Typically, biomixture consists of peat (or compost), straw (SIR) and topsoil (1:2:1 by volume). Straw guarantees a continuous supply of nutrients and ...
