Evaluation of Pressure-Driven Membrane Processes for Nutrients Recovery from Dilute Effluents
Tsaridou C., Karanasiou A., (Corresponding) Plakas K., Karabelas A.
Topic:
Circular economy and industrial symbiosis
Results are presented from an ongoing R&D project, aiming at full utilization of dairy-industry effluents. Development of a membrane-based method is pursued, for treatment of digestate (after fermentation yielding bio-gas) to recover nutrients (N-NH4, P-PO4) and water for reuse/recycling or...Read more

Mitigating the impact of antineoplastic drugs on aquatic environment: nanofiltration as a promising tertiary wastewater treatment
(Corresponding) Gouveia T., Cristóvão B., Pereira V., Crespo J., Alves A., Ribeiro A., Silva A., Santos M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Pharmaceuticals known as antineoplastic agents are increasingly prescribed in the fight against cancer. This is causing some concern in the scientific community due their poor treatment in many conventional wastewater treatment plants and poor environmental biodegradability, posing a potential risk...Read more
Nutrients recovery from liquid anaerobic digestate by combining nanofiltration and struvite precipitation - The case of dairy effluents valorization
Tsaridou C., (Corresponding) Karanasiou A., Sioutopoulos D., Plakas K., Tzioumaklis C., Patsikas N., Gliaos P., Karabelas A.
Topic:
Sustainable supply of raw materials
Results are reported herein of a study aiming to develop an integrated process for valorizing liquid digestate (LD) from an industrial anaerobic digestion (AD) plant treating dairy-processing effluents. The investigated approach involves LD treatment by nanofiltration (NF) membranes, at pilot-scale...Read more
