SusNisia: Circular economy for biogenic residues for the North Aegean – case studies for Islands of Chios and Lesvos
Baur F., Porzig M., Lekkas D.
Topic:
Biowaste
The North Aegean Islands of Chios and Lesvos set recycling goals for organic residues from MSW. Both islands, in line with the National and the Regional Plans for Municipal Waste Management, have selected the approach of mechanical-biological stabilization of MSW in combination with separated...Read more
Biogas production from sunflower residues: effect of pretreatment
(Corresponding) Stamatelatou K., Spyridonidis A., Zhurka M., Vasiliadou I., Lytra V.
Topic:
Biowaste
Sunflower residues are a prominent substrate of renewable source for biogas production during anaerobic digestion (AD). However, due to its recalcitrant structure, pretreatment is necessary to increase its biodegradability. The objective of the present work was to evaluate the effect of the NaOH...Read more
Biosolids as soil-amendment: evaluation of nutrient leaching in loamy-silty soil
(Corresponding) Venegas M., Fernandez G., Vidal G.
Topic:
Biowaste
Municipal sewage sludge is a by-product of wastewater treatment. The amount of sewage sludge has increased with the construction and expansion of wastewater treatment plants, while stricter policies have limited its disposal. Anaerobic digestion is a worldwide technology used in sewage sludge...Read more
Anaerobic co-digestion of poultry manure and used cooking oil for enhanced biogas production
(Corresponding) Eftaxias A., Gkalimanis P., Koskinari M., Koumara A., Diamantis V., (Corresponding) Aivasidis A.
Topic:
Biowaste
Aim of this study was to evaluate the anaerobic co-digestion of diluted poultry manure (DPM) and used cooking oil (UCO). Mixtures of DPM with different UCO dosages (1 to 6% v/v) were prepared using a high-shear emulsifier and digested in batch anaerobic reactors. Increasing the UCO dosage resulted...Read more
