A simple and flexible flowsheet process for recycling efficiently and selectively metals from spent fluid cracking catalysts
(Corresponding) Soares H., (Corresponding) Sadeghi M., (Corresponding) Jesus J., (Corresponding) Pinto E., (Corresponding) Almeida A.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Fluid cracking catalysts (FCCs) are used in the oil industry to crack large molecules into smaller hydrocarbons of interest, such as gasoline and other products. Considering the large volume of FCCs waste generated on a yearly basis (about 20 thousand tons of spent FCCs worldwide) as well as its...Read more

Life Cycle Assessment and Cost Benefit Analysis for the integrated assessment of an innovative Mn-TiO2 nanoparticle photocatalytic paint
(Corresponding) Karagkounis A., Fragkou E., Barmpas F., Efthimiou G., Tsegas G., Moussiopoulos N.
Topic:
Air pollution and health
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) are applied in combination in the frame of an integrated assessment of a new photocatalytic paint product developed within the LIFE VISIONS project. The Mn-TiO2 nanoparticle photocatalytic paint has been demonstrated to efficiently remove...Read more
