Evaluation of industrial wastes as active materials in permeable reactive barrier for acid mine drainage remediation
Sanchez D., Lopez-Bellido J., Acosta I., Rodriguez L., Villaseñor J., (Corresponding) Fernandez-Morales J.
Topic:
Hazardous waste management
The aim of this work was to evaluate the use of agricultural and industrial waste materials as reactive agents into Permeable Reactive Barriers (PRB) for Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) remediation. Laboratory-scale columns containing Volcanic Scoria (VS) as porous fill material and approximately 18% w/w...Read more

Topic:
Recycling of materials to new products
Finding sustainable solutions to reduce plastic waste in response to today's global environmental challenges is a high priority for the scientific community. Collaboration among many scientists with diverse research interests is the key to success for integrated proposals for the collection,...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
A comprehensive monitoring approach to evaluate the impact of an urban landfill on a naturally reducing aquifer
(Corresponding) Preziosi E., Parrone D., Frollini E., Ciotoli G., Sciarra A., Ruggiero L., Ghergo S.
Topic:
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
The processes leading to high levels of arsenic, iron, and manganese in a naturally reducing aquifer beneath a landfill are investigated. Traditional groundwater monitoring (physical-chemical parameters, major and trace inorganic compounds, organic compounds) has been complemented with the analysis...Read more
Heavy metal assessment in vineyard sludge. Copper lixiviation and recovery studies.
(Corresponding) YOHAI L., GARRIDO MOLINA C., RESINA GALLEGO M., LÓPEZ MESAS M., VALIENTE M.
Topic:
Hazardous waste management
The use of copper-based compounds to prevent fungi diseases in vineyards have contributed to heavy metal accumulation in soil, vegetation and waste, causing a serious environmental and agro-industrial problem. One main issue is the waste generated both during and after wine production. This waste...Read more
Anaerobic Co-Digestion of olive oil wastewater with municipal solid and liquid waste: An Urban-Industrial symbiosis concept
(Corresponding) Papadopoulou K., Pavlopoulos C., Zarkaliou A., Lyberatos G.
Topic:
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
The aim of this research was to explore the possibility for joint waste management from industry and municipality (Industrial-Urban Symbiosis (I-US)) through material and energy exchanges between municipality and industry and to improve the efficiency and environmental performance of biofuel...Read more
