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
