Contribution to the exploitation of oil by-products for use in the production of quality feed through the fermentation with the fungal strain LGAM P123 of basidiomyces Pleurotus ostreatus

(Corresponding) KARALIS I., ΑRAPOGLOY D., CHORIANOPOYLOS N., ILIOPOYLOS C.
Topic: 
Solid waste management
In Greece, large quantities of by-products are produced annually from urban and industrial activities among them very high olive oil productionby-products. Thus, the interest of the scientific community has focused on the utilization of olive oil waste mainly as a feed using various microorganisms...Read more

Microbiological treatment of water by cold plasma at atmospheric pressure

(Corresponding) Anelise C.
Topic: 
Water treatment
Ensuring the world's population access to drinking water is one of the millennium's challenges, for although our planet is made up of 70% of water, poor distribution and water quality are problems that concern world leaders, being among the objectives of development 2030 agenda set by the...Read more

Waste to Energy Initiatives at the Local Level

(Corresponding) LIM D., BALLESTEROS F., DE SALES L.
Topic: 
Solid waste management
The problem on solid waste has been and still remains as a major problem in the Philippines especially in developing countries where proper facilities for collection and disposal are not always available. In Metro Manila alone, daily waste generation stands at 8,600 tons coming from a population 12...Read more

Heterotrophic growth of Chlorella vulgaris on crude glycerol

Gougoulias N., Metsoviti M., Grigoriou M., Lamprakopoulos S., Besios A., (Corresponding) Papapolymerou G.
Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
The heterotrophic growth of C. vulgaris using crude glycerol as the sole carbon source was studied in five 5L flasks. Air in each flask was provided at a rate of 300 L/hr and the contents were continuously stirred with a magnetic bar. Temperature, pH and initial inorganic nutrients (nitrogen,...Read more

Fuzzy Relation Between The RDIst Index And The Water Table Of A Coastal Aquifer of Nestos Delta, Greece

(Corresponding) Papadopoulos C., Gkiougkis I., Spiliotis M., Pliakas F., Papadopoulos B.
Topic: 
Floods, droughts and water scarcity
Drought is a complicated natural extreme event associated with the decline of water availability below the normal conditions of a hydrological system, both from a temporal and from a spatial point of view. This work aims to assess the drought impacts on groundwater fluctuation in a shallow coastal...Read more

Enabling the Total Resource Utilization (TRU) Habitat

Tsantrizos P., (Corresponding) Curry N.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
Terragon Environmental Technologies Inc. has developed a suite of user-friendly technologies to treat solid and liquid byproducts of human consumption now considered “waste” and convert them into “resources” that can be re-used in the same place in which they are generated (in situ). These...Read more

A new sustainable approach in recovering Cobalt from “hard metal” production by-products

Amadou O., DE GAUDENZI G., MARCHESELLI G., PIREDDA M., (Corresponding) SERPE A.
Topic: 
Hazardous waste management
The present work shows the capability of Maleic Acid solutions to tune the amount of Co in cemented carbide-based recovery powders with a Co content exceeding the threshold (10% Co) for industrial manufacturing in Hard Metal production and required by safety regulations. Maleic acid solutions react...Read more

Mass and energy balances of sewage sludge pyrolysis in a lab rotary kiln

(Corresponding) Mendoza L., Gómez A., Rincón S.
Topic: 
Energy technologies and sustainability
The aim of this work is to study the influence of the main parameters of sewage pyrolysis in a rotary kiln on the product distriburion and energy balances. An indirectly heated rotary kiln at a laboratory scale was used (4 kg/h). An increase in the final temperature causes the reduction of the...Read more
