The mitigation of environmental impacts of high polluted effluents from tuna canning industry through eco-efficiency strategies

(Corresponding) Gutierrez M., Etxebarria S., Revilla M., Ramos S., Ciriza A., Sancho L., Zufia J.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
Food industry use high volume of water and energy to carry out their processes. Specifically, the fish canning industry generates effluents with high organic and saline loads, which complicates their suitable treatment before discharging to water bodies. The LIFE VERTALIM project has demonstrated...Read more

Energy recovery from urea in decentralised wastewater streams

Asiain-Mira R., Zamora P., Rogalla F., Monsalvo V., (Corresponding) Torrente-Murciano L.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
This work presents the design of a new process that enables energy recovery from wastewater, based on the selective adsorption of urea from urine and its subsequent decomposition into hydrogen. Removal of nitrogen compounds is at the core of wastewater treatment, as their uncontrolled discharge...Read more
