La mirada del viajero a través del caleidoscopio del mundo

Treball Final de Grau en Turisme. Codi: TU0944. Curs acadèmic: 2020/2021El presente trabajo de final de grado, en la modalidad de revisión bibliográfica, propone la interrelación del fenómeno de viajar con la psicología mediante el estudio de las características psicológicas de los viajeros antes, durante y después de emprender un viaje y la observación de su experiencia en la literatura. Un antes, un durante y un después, en los que confluyen imaginación, realidad y recuerdo. Como si a través de un caleidoscopio se mirase al mundo, la imaginación, aquello que se ansia descubrir, podrá hacerse o no realidad; la realidad, enmarcada por las vivencias del presente, se destilará en recuerdo; recuerdo, que por más que se desee revivir nunca volverá a ser realidad.This final degree project, as a literature review, proposes the interrelationship of the phenomenon of traveling with psychology by studying the psychological characteristics of travelers before, during and after embarking on a journey and observing their experience in literature. A before, a during and an after in which imagination, reality and memory come together. As if looking at the world through a kaleidoscope, imagination may or may not come true; reality will always become a memory and the memory will never come true again

Strategies to Drive Photo-Fenton Process at Mild Conditions for the Removal of Xenobiotics from Aqueous Systems

[EN] The aim of this paper is to provide an overview on the different approaches that can be employed to drive a photo-Fenton process under mild conditions, using both heterogeneous and homogeneous iron sources. For this purpose, sections are devoted to the following strategies: a) addition of iron at low concentrations; b) using the matrix of the effluent in order to avoid deactivation of iron; c) addition of chemical auxiliaries to form photoactive complexes with iron, such as carboxylates, chelating agents and humic-like macromolecules; d) strategies leading to the application of heterogeneous photo-Fenton process, by using iron-based solid particles or by hosting iron on different supports and; e) using heterogeneous iron sources as a reservoir for constant dosing of homogeneous iron photocatalyst. In particular, the review will focus on the elimination of emerging pollutants (e.g. drugs, personal care products or pesticides at low concentrations) which are the effluents where applying neutral photo-Fenton seems especially meaningful, although relevant works with other families of pollutants are also consideredThis work was performed with the financial of the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Research and Innovation Staff Exchange project funded by the European Commission H2020-MSCA-RISE-2014, within the framework of the research project Mat4treat.

Enhancement of Iron-Based Photo-Driven Processes by the Presence of Catechol Moieties

Photo-induced Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) using H2O2 or S2O82- as radical precursors were assessed for the abatement of six different contaminants of emerging concern (CECs). In order to increase the efficiency of these AOPs at a wider pH range, the catechol organic functional compound was studied as a potential assistant in photo-driven iron-based processes. Different salinity regimes were also studied (in terms of Cl- concentration), namely low salt water (1 g center dot L-1) or a salt-water (30 g center dot L-1) matrix. Results obtained revealed that the presence of catechol could efficiently assist the photo-Fenton system and partly promote the photo-induced S2O82- system, which was highly dependent on salinity. Regarding the behavior of individual CECs, the photo-Fenton reaction was able to enhance the degradation of all six CECs, meanwhile the S2O82--based process showed a moderate enhancement for acetaminophen, amoxicillin or clofibric acid. Finally, a response-surface methodology was employed to determine the effect of pH and catechol concentration on the different photo-driven processes. Catechol was removed during the degradation process. According to the results obtained, the presence of catechol in organic macromolecules can bring some advantages in water treatment for either freshwater (wastewater) or seawater (maritime or aquaculture industry)

Effect of Salinity on UVA-Vis Light Driven Photo-Fenton Process at Acidic and Circumneutral pH

In the present work, the treatment of a mixture of six emerging pollutants (acetamiprid, acetaminophen, caffeine, amoxicillin, clofibric acid and carbamazepine) by means of photo-Fenton process has been studied, using simulated sunlight as an irradiation source. Removal of these pollutants has been investigated in three different aqueous matrices distinguished by the amount of chlorides (distilled water, 1 g L-1 of NaCl and 30 g L-1 of NaCl) at a pH of 2.8 and 5.0. Interestingly, the presence of 1 g L-1 was able to slightly accelerate the pollutants removal at pH = 5, although the reverse was true at pH = 2.8. This is attributed to the pH-dependent interference of chlorides on photo-Fenton process, that is more acute in an acidic medium. As a matter of fact, the fastest reaction was obtained at pH = 3.5, in agreement with literature results. Monitoring of hydrogen peroxide consumption and iron in solution indicates that interference with chlorides is due to changes in the interaction between iron and the peroxide, rather than a scavenging effect of chloride for hydroxyl radicals. Experiments were also carried out with real seawater and showed higher inhibition than in the NaCl experiments, probably due to the effect of different dissolved salts present in natural water

Mild Fenton Processes for the Removal of Preservatives: Interfering Effect of Methylisothiazolinone (MIT) on Paraben Degradation

[EN] The degradation of various preservatives used in the cosmetics industry, including five parabens and their most employed substitute, methylisothiazolinone (MIT), was investigated. A mild photo-Fenton process was applied using low iron concentrations (5 mg/L) at a pH of five, instead of the traditional acidic value of three. At these conditions, the paraben degradation was very low after one hour of reaction and it was necessary to present humic-like substances (HLS) acting as iron chelators to improve the process. Values obtained when MIT was treated were very low, also in the presence of HLS, indicating that their complexing effect was not acting properly. When MIT was added to the mixture of parabens an inhibitory effect was found in the presence of HLS. A possible complex between iron and MIT was suggested and the studies of hydrogen peroxide consumption and Job's plot technique confirmed this hypothesis. Evidence of the formation of this inactive complex, so far never reported, will be essential in future work when dealing with this compound using Fenton processes. Furthermore, this fact points out the importance of using mixtures of model contaminants instead of a single one or a group of the same family, since their ability to form active or inactive complexes with iron can strongly change the behavior of the whole system.Authors want to acknowledge the financial support of Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovacion y Universidad (RTI 2018-097997-B-C31, Calypsol Project) and Generalitat Valenciana AICO/2021/014.Duarte-Alvarado, V.; Santos-Juanes Jordá, L.; Arqués Sanz, A.; Amat Payá, AM.
