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

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

Plastic waste utilization: Challenges and opportunities for waste-to-energy in Baguio City, Philippines

(Corresponding) Duran J., Victoriano J., Lunag Jr. M., Diccion Jr. A., Putiyon P., Solijon J.
Topic: 
Waste-to-energy
Amounts of residual wastes, such as plastics, paper, and textiles, in urban areas have drastically increased over the years, which hence requires sustainable waste management schemes. Refuse derived fuel (RDF) provides a solution in addressing minimizing waste disposal in landfills and providing...Read more
