Recycling, Volume 10, Issue 3

The recycling of proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer (PEMWE) raw materials is imperative due to their scarcity, cost, complexity and environmental impact. This is particularly true in the context of expanding electrolyzer manufacturing and re...

Invasive alien species are one of the main threats to global biodiversity, and pose significant management challenges in several areas outside their natural range. In southern Mediterranean Europe, the invasion of Acacia species is particularly sever...

In this study, graphene production via liquid-phase exfoliation assisted by sonication was evaluated using deionized water as a solvent and two graphite sources: one recovered from spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and a commercial counterpart. A 75...

The construction industry faces a growing challenge in managing waste materials, making the development of sustainable alternatives critical. This study investigates the preparation of geopolymers using construction and demolition waste materials, su...

E-Waste management in Nigeria remains predominantly informal, with unlicensed collectors focusing on extracting valuable materials, primarily for export. Despite policy interventions, including the revised 2022 E-Waste framework and the Global Enviro...

The widespread implementation of anaerobic digestion (AD) systems for organic waste treatment is increasingly challenged by emerging contaminants, including microplastics (MPs), antibiotics, and heavy metals (HMs), which exhibit environmental persist...

Construction and demolition waste (CDW) management remains a pressing challenge in the construction industry, contributing significantly to environmental degradation and resource depletion. Accurate waste measurement is essential for improving resour...

Annually, a considerable amount of agricultural waste is produced leading to serious environmental pollution if not managed effectively. A wide range of bio-decomposers, including fungi, bacteria, and actinomycetes may break down the complex agro-res...

Municipal solid waste (MSW) is rising globally, and improper management harms the environment and public health. As a result, there is heightened interest in finding effective solutions, and identifying research trends helps determine the best manage...

The Iberian Pyrite Belt (IPB) contains the world’s largest massive sulfide deposit, and, due to extensive mining developed during the last 200 years, large amounts of mining waste have been abandoned in this area, with roasted pyrite ash being...
