Assessment of yields and properties of bioplastics production from acidified sugary wastewaters via mixed microbial cultures
Kora E., Tsaousis P., Andrikopoulos K., Chasapis C., (Corresponding) Ntaikou I., Voyiatzis G., Lyberatos G.
Topic:
Bioplastics
A mixed microbial culture (MMC) of poly-hydroxy-alkanoates (PHAs) producers was developed in a draw- fill reactor (DFR) subjected to sequential nitrogen/carbon limitation stress using short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) as carbon source. The distribution of microorganisms was analyzed in the beginning...Read more
Low molecular weight polymers in aquatic environments as pollutants of emerging concerns: recovery, quantification and microstructure
(Corresponding) Giannattasio A., Iuliano ., Oliva G., Giaquinto D., Capacchione C., Korshin G., Barcelo D., Naddeo V., Belgiorno V., Buonerba A., Grassi A.
Topic:
Citizen Science in Environmental Monitoring
Microplastics and, more in general, synthetic polymer debrides of anthropic origin are accumulating in the environment, in particular in marine water and sediments, with risks associated for aquatic organisms and humans not well wholly understood. In this contribution it is reported a new method...Read more
