The valorization of agricultural wastes as biosorbent represents a promising circular economy strategy: a waste is applied for the treatment of wastewater containing contaminants. This work is focused on the removal of Ni ...

In this work, we present a simplified LCA on two commom products: an aluminum can and a glass bottle, both containing the same amoung of beverage (1/3 L of beer). The work presented here seeks to find out which option would ...

Electrodialysis (ED) is a membrane separation process in which ions are transferred through selective ion-exchange membranes (IEMs) from one solution to another using an electric field as the driving force. ED is a mature ...

Lithium-ion batteries are currently present in most portable electronic devices and their use is rapidly growing in the field of electric vehicles and renewable energy storage. Many components in lithium-ion batteries are ...

Electrolyzers are used to produce hydrogen and oxygen from electricity through water electrolysis. If the electricity comes from renewable sources, such as solar energy, the produced hydrogen, denoted as green-H2. Despite ...

Teamwork skills has been always an important ability required for the companies due to a part of their success is a result of that. An important consideration to achieve a good teamwork is an effective communication and ...

Lithium-ion batteries play an important role in our modern society as the main option to power portable electronic devices and electric vehicles. The growing demand for these batteries encourages the development of more ...

The sequential extraction procedure as a tool to assess the environmental risk of metals in solid matrices has been widely studied. In this work, other promising application of these methods is proposed: the evaluation of ...

The valorization of agricultural waste as biosorbent requires studies dealing with aqueous systems containing coexisting heavy metals. Batch adsorption experiments were carried out to study the competitive biosorption of ...
