PERDIGĂO-LIMA T., Feliciano M., Pereira Wilken A., Gomes H., Shinibekova A., Kalmakhanova M., Massalimova B., (Corresponding) Diaz de Tuesta J.
Topic:
Environmental odour, monitoring and control
Biological and composting processes used in the treatment of municipal solid waste typically are sources of odour pollution (gaseous pollutants include SO2, NH3, H2S and other toxic air pollutants). In this work, the removal of NH3 present in odorous composting leachate was assessed for the first...Read more
Designing sustainable processes for the valorization of industrial and environmental waste streams towards industrializable polyhydroxyalkanoates
(Corresponding) Ntaikou I., Antonopoulou G., Kokkinopoulou I., Ladakis D., Tragoulias K., Zhang Y., Yan Q., Nan J., Pissaridi K., Spiliotis V., Ladikos D., Moutsatsou P., Koutinas A., Lyberatos G.
Topic:
Bioplastics
In the present study different environmental and industrial waste streams are assessed as feedstock for the production of bioplastics adequate to be used for food packaging applications or for the formation of fully biodegradable garbage bags. For the production of bioplastics i.e...Read more
UTILIZATION OF AGRICULTURAL AND URBAN PLASTIC WASTE REVIEW: INTRODUCTION TO PYROLISIS AND HYDROCARBON REFORMATION
KOUMPAKIS D., (Corresponding) VLACHOKOSTAS C.
Topic:
Waste-to-energy
Agricultural and urban waste consist of large quantities of biomass and petroleum originated waste. These two categories are rich in hydrocarbons which can be utilized again after their first life cycle. Pyrolysis is a thermochemical process in which solid hydrocarbons decompose in conditions of...Read more
