Planar Mixing Tool for Enhanced Performance of Covered Anaerobic Pond Systems
(Corresponding) Brück F., Velten H., Pingsmann M., Meyer D., Weigand H., Linnenberg C., Theilen U.
Topic:
New solutions for a better and sustainable agriculture
Pond systems are the simplest and most widespread technology for the treatment of high-strength wastewater containing biodegradable suspended solids. When covered, they offer significant advantages such as odour control, intensification of the decomposition process, and the potential to capture...Read more
Research on vegetable farming in vertical hydroponic system
(Corresponding) Ciuta F., Tudor A., Lagunovschi V.
Topic:
New solutions for a better and sustainable agriculture
Vertical farming is the practice of growing plants in a multi-layer system. This often includes agriculture in a controlled environment, whose purpose is the optimisation of plant growing, together with soil-free agricultural techniques, such as hydroponics, acquaponics and aeroponics. Some of the...Read more

Topic:
Air pollution
Headspace solid-phase micro extraction-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC/MS) was performed for the analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from books. Towards this, books of different ages were examined (old = 50-300 years and new = 2-25 years) using a CAR/PDMS fiber...Read more
Production of added-value metabolites during growth of wild-type yeast strains on media composed of biodiesel-derived crude glycerol
Diamantopoulou P., Filippousi R., Sarantou S., Stoforos N., Xenopoulos E., (Corresponding) Papanikolaou S.
Topic:
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
Wild-type yeast strains of Metschnikowia sp., Rhodotorula sp. and Rhodosporidium sp. were grown under nitrogen-limited conditions with crude glycerol employed as sole substrate in shake flasks, under nitrogen-limited conditions, with initial glycerol concentration (Glol0) ≈45 g/L. Yeasts presented...Read more
Lipid production by Rhodosporidium toruloides during growth on biodiesel-derived crude glycerol
Sarantou S., Stoforos N., Ourania K., Diamantopoulou P., (Corresponding) Papanikolaou S.
Topic:
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
Rhodosporidium toruloides DSM 4444 when grown on biodiesel-derived glycerol under nitrogen-limited conditions was revealed as an efficient microbial lipid produced. This strain when cultivated on glycerol at initial concentration (Gly0) ~50 g/L produced dry cell weight (DCW) =18.1 g/L containing...Read more
CIRC4FooD: An urban food production system inspired by the circular economy
(Corresponding) Tsatsou A., Ioannides C., Noutsopoulos C., Tsimiklis G., Chrisomallos G., Tsiropoulos Z., Mamais D., Malamis S.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
The environmental footprint of the current, linear food system is a key challenge that must be faced for a global transition to sustainability. Agricultural practices are drivers of polluting food production, while cities form critical hubs of wasteful food consumption. In this context, urban...Read more

The water tariff structure in the new Convergence Regulatory Scheme
(Corresponding) Macchiaroli M., Dolores L., De Mare G.
Topic:
Water policy, management and society
The most recent innovation in the regulation of the Italian Urban Water Management is the introduction of the Convergence Regulatory Scheme. The new tariff preparation method introduced by the Italian Regulatory Authority for Energy, Networks, and Environment (ARERA) aims to simplify the mechanism...Read more

Evaluation of viable anode material for bioelectricity production in Microbial Fuel Cell
Gautam R., Nayak J., (Corresponding) Ghosh U.
Topic:
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) technology is based on bioelectrochemical system, extract power from organic load of the wastes to produce bio-electricity. The present study have evaluated the effect of the different electrode materials in two sets of mediator-less H- type double chambered MFC operated...Read more

Evaluation of the potential of four microalgal-bacterial symbiotic association on wastewater treatment and lipid accumulation
Talapatra K., Mittal V., (Corresponding) Ghosh U., Gautam R.
Topic:
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
Microalgae-bacteria symbiotic systems have demonstrated greater benefits over the pure culture of microalgae. The existence of certain bacteria will increase the quality of sewage purification and also reduce the associated high capital cost for maintaining the pure culture of microalgae. In this...Read more
