The role of biomass and biowaste in the green energy transition of islands and an introduction to the μgas-to-grid concept

(Corresponding) Vakalis S., Fountoulakis M.
Topic: 
Energy technologies and sustainability
The green transition of the energy sector in islands has always been a challenging task. The connectivity of islands with the (mainland) central grid can be problematic, especially when the distance is significant. In such cases, isolated electrical grids need to be developed on the islands, and...Read more

Feasibility of coupling hydrogen and methane production during sewage sludge digestion

Ellacuriaga M., Aguilar-Pesantes A., (Corresponding) Gómez X.
Topic: 
Energy technologies and sustainability
Anaerobic digestion is a technology widely used for the stabilisation of sewage sludge in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). This technology presents several advantages such as the production of energy and the use of this energy to cover the demand of the treatment plant. However, sludge digestion...Read more

Investigating the Performance of Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Primary Sludge and Acid Whey Using a Twin Pilot Scale System

(Corresponding) Gkoumas F., Tzivelou E., Gravanis Z., Mamais D., Malamis S., Noutsopoulos C.
Topic: 
Waste-to-energy
Anaerobic Digestion (AD) has proven to be an effective method for transforming organic waste into biogas, a renewable energy source that can play a crucial role in reducing our dependence on finite fossil fuels. Despite its widespread use, mono-digestion, where a single substrate is utilized, is...Read more
