Valorisation of waste polyethylene by blending with ethylene-vinyl acetate and incorporation of a new type of compatibilizer
(Corresponding) Simon-Stőger L., Varga C.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Nowadays polyethylene is one of the polymers produced in the greatest volume, therefore, parallelly the amount of generated waste polyethylene (w-HDPE) significant as well. Valorisation and recycling of w-HDPE can be realized by blending with different types of polymers and/or elastomers in order...Read more
A methodology for boosting circular economy in olive oil and wine sectors: opportunities for the Italian competitiveness through eco-innovation strategies
(Corresponding) Mentore V., CHEBBI A., Franzetti A., Sbaffoni S.
Topic:
Circular economy and industrial symbiosis
Applying the principles of circular economy to agriculture is a very important contemporary issue on the international political and economic agenda. In this context, current knowledge and recent insights on biosurfactant production will be surveyed to apply these novel economic approaches in the...Read more
Removal of gaseous ammonia released from odorous composting leachate employing carbonaceous adsorbents prepared from agro-industrial wastes
PERDIGÃO-LIMA T., Feliciano M., Pereira Wilken A., Gomes H., Shinibekova A., Kalmakhanova M., Massalimova B., (Corresponding) Diaz de Tuesta J.
Topic:
Environmental odour, monitoring and control
Biological and composting processes used in the treatment of municipal solid waste typically are sources of odour pollution (gaseous pollutants include SO2, NH3, H2S and other toxic air pollutants). In this work, the removal of NH3 present in odorous composting leachate was assessed for the first...Read more
Energy recovery from urea in decentralised wastewater streams
Asiain-Mira R., Zamora P., Rogalla F., Monsalvo V., (Corresponding) Torrente-Murciano L.
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
