MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION OF TWO-PHASE OLIVE-OIL WASHING WASTEWATER PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS RECOVERY AND TREATMENT BY NOVEL WEAK-BASE ION EXCHANGE RESINS
(Corresponding) Ochando J., Anotnio M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
In the present work, the concentration and recovery of high-added value phenolic compounds from two-phase olive mill wastewater (OMW) and the simultaneous effluent treatment by a ‘green process’ based on resins adsorption/ion exchange was studied. Olive oil is produced by a technological procedure...Read more

OTAER biotechnology: a new pathway of reaching the Zero Net Carbon in Odours Treatment
(Corresponding) Romano F., Mariniello A., Oliva G., Naddeo V., Belgiorno V., Zarra T.
Topic:
Sustainability & the SDGs
Emissions of odours into ambient air represent a serious problem and cause for conflict, due to the effects they cause on the population and on the exposed environment. Their treatment is therefore a priority. The approach currently pursued by the conventional odour treatment technologies is...Read more
Modelling Closed-Water Loops in the Process Industries
(Corresponding) Karkou E., Savvakis N., Aryblia M., Arampatzis G.
Topic:
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
Global water scarcity poses a significant challenge for the process industry, especially in water-stressed areas. Population growth and rapid industrialization make evident the necessity to incorporate sustainable and efficient water management strategies in the industrial sector. This study aims...Read more
