Identification and Quantification of Microplastic in Sewage systems by TED-GC-MS

(Corresponding) Altmann K., Goedecke C., Bannick C., Abusafia A., Scheid C., Steinmetz H., Braun U.

Topic:

Microplastics in the marine environment

Over the last years, the number of publications reporting the amount of microplastic (MP) all over the world increased rapidly. But harmonised sampling, sample preparation and analysis strategies are missing. Commonly used methods are very time consuming and not comparable to each other. Hence,...Read more

Coal fly ash zeolites as adsorbents for effective removal of heavy metals and dyes from contaminated waters

Zgureva D., (Corresponding) Boycheva S., Behunová D., Václavíková M.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Recently, the purification of enormous amounts contaminated industrial, agricultural and municipal waters increases the demands of low-cost and technologically feasible techniques. The application of natural zeolites in wastewater treatment is known from many years. A feasible approach for...Read more

Magnetite nanoparticles activated coal fly ash zeolites with application in waste water remediation

(Corresponding) Boycheva S., Miteva S., Trendafilova I., Zgureva D., Václavíková M., Popova M.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

The application of zeolites in wastewater treatment is studied long ago but still many unexploited opportunities exist. Recent investigations on natural and synthetic zeolites in water decontamination are focused on the improvement of their adsorption and ion-exchange properties modifying them by...Read more

Enabling the Total Resource Utilization (TRU) Habitat

Tsantrizos P., (Corresponding) Curry N.

Topic:

Water, energy and/or food nexus

Terragon Environmental Technologies Inc. has developed a suite of user-friendly technologies to treat solid and liquid byproducts of human consumption now considered “waste” and convert them into “resources” that can be re-used in the same place in which they are generated (in situ). These...Read more

Pasture biodiversity after five years of establishment of a walnut silvopastoral system fertilized with different types of sewage sludge

ARIAS-MARTÍNEZ D., (Corresponding) MOSQUERA-LOSADA M., RIGUEIRO-RODRÍGUEZ A., FERREIRO-DOMÍNGUEZ N.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Silvopasture is the combination of woody vegetation with forage and animal production on the same land that allows the diversification of agricultural income and productivity. In the silvopastoral systems, the fertilisation with sewage sludge could increase tree growth and pasture production at the...Read more
