Moss-specific accumulation of atmospheric element deposition?

Dr. Nickel S., (Corresponding) Dr. Schröder W.
Topic: 
Air pollution
This article presents statistical analyses of elements concentrations in mosses which were collected in 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005 and 2015 throughout Germany at 592, 1026, 1028, 726 and 400 sites, respectively, and chemically analysed according to harmonised methods throughout Europe. The evaluations...Read more

Spatial explicit evaluation of potential future developments of forests due to climatic change and nitrogen deposition

Dr. Jenssen M., Dr. Nickel S., (Corresponding) Dr. Schröder W.
Topic: 
Enviornmental data analysis and modelling
Climate change and atmospheric nitrogen deposition can impact the integrity of ecosystems. Therefore, the EU Biodiversity Strategy foresees that Member States map and assess the state of ecosystems and their services in their national territory. By example of Germany, this article presents a...Read more

Towards decentralizing the energy system: production of bioenergy and bioproducts via anaerobic digestion

(Corresponding) VLACHOKOSTAS C., MICHAILIDOU A., (Corresponding) ACHILLAS C., (Corresponding) MOUSSIOPOULOS N.
Topic: 
Biowaste
The model of circular economy has gained worldwide interest. Within its concept, biodegradable waste is viewed as a beneficial resource that needs to be re-introduced in the supply chains. The use of raw materials, energy, and water is also to be minimized. Undeniably, a strong link exists between...Read more

Microbiological treatment of water by cold plasma at atmospheric pressure

(Corresponding) Cubas A., Machado M., Moecke E.
Topic: 
Water treatment
Ensuring the world's population access to drinking water is one of the millennium's challenges, for although our planet is made up of 70% of water, poor distribution and water quality are problems that concern world leaders, being among the objectives of development 2030 agenda set by the...Read more

Extraction of Oil from Spent Grounds Coffee using Ultrasound as Pre-Extraction Method

(Corresponding) Cubas A., Hermmann K., Bianchet R., Moecke E.
Topic: 
Food waste
The treatment and processing of coffee annually produces a large volume of biological waste, which contributes to environmental pollution, it is estimated that coffee production generates approx. 6 million tonnes of spent coffee grounds per year in the world (GETACHEW and CHUN, 2017). Thus, the...Read more

Use of bacterial cellulose produced by Kombucha drink for the manufacture of biotextiles for the benefit of sustainability

(Corresponding) Cubas A., Provin A., Cesca K., Dutra A.
Topic: 
Innovative environmental solutions
Textile industry is one of the most complex sectors in relation to environmental degradation, both with regard to the materials used and the manufacturing and disposal processes. One way to mitigate negative environmental impacts is the use of microorganisms such as bacterial cellulose (BC) in the...Read more
