Technical optimization of a treatment process on ABE effluent by membrane technologies
(Corresponding) Stoller M., Bravi M., Russo P., Bubbico R., Mazzarotta B., Sed G., Moroni M.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
In the last decades, the interest in biofuel production is sensibly growing as a good source of sustainable energy and a valid alternative to fossil ones. One of the most promising biofuel is butanol and might be produced by starting from different substrates, such as second generation ones, that...Read more
Tuning of an advanced control system on a membrane process for tannery wastewater purification and chromium recovery purposes
Marchetti A., (Corresponding) Stoller M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Tannery wastewater represent a hazard to the environment due to its high content of chromium. Conventional methods to purify this wastewater stream are available, but not capable to recover back chromium to the tannery process. Membranes appears to be a promising technology to achieve both targets...Read more

DESIGN OPTIMIZATION OF A POLYMERIC NANOFILTRATION MEMBRANE FOR OLIVE MILL WASTEWATER VALORIZATION PLUS PURIFICATION
(Corresponding) Pulido J.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
The core of the present work was to model and optimize an environmentally friendly nanofiltration (NF) treatment process for two-phase olive mill wastewater (OMW) valorization throughout concentration and recovery of its phenolic fraction and the obtention of a purified permeate stream. A factorial...Read more
Monitoring the algae biomass growth developed on hollow fiber membrane bioreactor
Novoa A., (Corresponding) Luca F.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
This work focuses on using non-destructive imaging techniques to monitor in-situ the formation of algae biomass on hollow fiber membrane bioreactor treating wastewater. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) was employed to acquire cross-sectional scans of the algae growth in real-time under continuous...Read more
