Characterizing activated carbon synthesized from corn straw aiming water treatment

Silva T., Souza I., Silva C., (Corresponding) Abud A.

Topic:

Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy

The emerging agenda for sustainable development and global warming control searches urgent researches to reduce environmental impacts. In this sense, activated carbons from agroindustrial wastes are widely used as adsorbents in food and pharmaceuticals industries, mainly for the separation and...Read more

Heterotrophic growth of Chlorella vulgaris on crude glycerol

Gougoulias N., Metsoviti M., Grigoriou M., Lamprakopoulos S., Besios A., (Corresponding) Papapolymerou G.

Topic:

Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy

The heterotrophic growth of C. vulgaris using crude glycerol as the sole carbon source was studied in five 5L flasks. Air in each flask was provided at a rate of 300 L/hr and the contents were continuously stirred with a magnetic bar. Temperature, pH and initial inorganic nutrients (nitrogen,...Read more

Enrichment of mesophilic syngas-converting consortia for methane production

García S., Muñoz R., (Corresponding) Lebrero R.

Topic:

Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy

The use of waste biomass as raw material for syngas production has emerged as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to the conventional gasifiable feedstock. In addition, syngas bioconversion into value-added compounds could be an interesting approach for carbon fixation and syngas...Read more
