The mitigation of environmental impacts of high polluted effluents from tuna canning industry through eco-efficiency strategies

(Corresponding) Gutierrez M., Etxebarria S., Revilla M., Ramos S., Ciriza A., Sancho L., Zufia J.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
Food industry use high volume of water and energy to carry out their processes. Specifically, the fish canning industry generates effluents with high organic and saline loads, which complicates their suitable treatment before discharging to water bodies. The LIFE VERTALIM project has demonstrated...Read more

Enabling the Total Resource Utilization (TRU) Habitat

Tsantrizos P., (Corresponding) Curry N.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
Terragon Environmental Technologies Inc. has developed a suite of user-friendly technologies to treat solid and liquid byproducts of human consumption now considered “waste” and convert them into “resources” that can be re-used in the same place in which they are generated (in situ). These...Read more

A Water-Based Approach for Addressing RES Integration Challenges in Insular Energy Systems

(Corresponding) Tzanes G., Makropoulos C., Zafirakis D., Kaldellis J., Stamou A.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
High shares of RES-based power capacity in island electricity grids often imply significant energy curtailments of non-dispatchable power generation, which in turn limits islands’ capacity to leverage RES environmental and economic benefits. The presence of energy storage systems and/or grid...Read more
