Evaluation of Biocoagulant “Opuntia ficus-indica and Chitosan” to Improve the Removal of Contaminants in Dairy Effluents through Electrocoagulation by Naysha Y. M. Elguera, Stephanie E. S. Pulcha, Edgar M. M. Ballon, Miriam R. F. Castro, Lilia M. M. Ramos, Victor L. A. Tohalino, Pavel K. D. Sarmiento, Vitor C. Almeida, Hugo G. J. Pacheco

“…The experimental results showed that the formulation of the compound biocoagulant Q-M-5 in doses of 0.99 g/L achieves 98.44% turbidity removal and 81.72% chemical oxygen demand removal. The dose of the compound biocoagulant has a significant positive effect as does the current density of 30 mA/cm2 and time of 19.05 min; that is, its efficiency in removing turbidity and chemical oxygen demand increases when using these parameters. …”

Unraveling Lake Geneva's hypoxia crisis in the Anthropocene by Laura M. V. Soares, Olivia Desgué‐Itier, Cécilia Barouillet, Céline Casenave, Isabelle Domaizon, Victor Frossard, Nelson G. Hairston Jr., Andrea Lami, Bruno J. Lemaire, Georges‐Marie Saulnier, Frédéric Soulignac, Brigitte Vinçon‐Leite, Jean‐Philippe Jenny

“…This study introduces a novel model approach using 150 yr of limnological and paleolimnological data to evaluate the anthropogenic impacts on deep oxygen in Lake Geneva. Results highlight an increase in oxygen consumption rates due to cultural eutrophication, initially triggering historical hypoxia, subsequently exacerbated by reduced winter mixing induced by climate change. …”
