Egg products are a convenient and safe form of eggs, possessing valuable nutritional and functional properties. The egg processing industry is responsible for the enormous amounts of biomass in the form of animal by-products (ABPs). According to EU l...
Anaerobic digestion of sugarcane vinasse is integral to enhancing ethanol distilleries’ environmental and energy performance by converting organic waste into biogas; however, the flammable and toxic nature of biogas has led to significant safet...
Green coconut husk is an abundant and underutilized agro-industrial residue in Brazil, contributing significantly to landfill overload. This study investigates the pyrolysis of pellets derived from this biomass as a technological alternative for its...
This study provides a comparative thermochemical analysis of coconut husk, rice husk and mineral coal, assessing their potential for use in sustainable energy applications. Standardised proximate and ultimate analyses, thermogravimetric (TGA/DTG) eva...
Composting is an effective biotechnological process for transforming agro-industrial residues into stabilized and nutrient-rich organic amendments. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying organic matter transformation remain poorly resolved. In...
This study investigated the potential of a commercially available birch biochar, previously used as a soil amendment, for the adsorption of Pb2+ ions from aqueous solutions. For the first time, direct potentiometry with a lead ion-selective electrode...
This research explores the effects of milling on fecal sludge (FS) biochar with an emphasis on milling time (5, 10, and 15 min) and ball-to-powder ratio (BPR) (4.533 g/g, 9.067 g/g, and 10.5 g/g). FS biochar was prepared through slow co-pyrolysis of...
Aqueous phase reforming has been posed as a promising technology for renewable hydrogen production in the framework of the transition to a sustainable energy economy. Since the use of chemical compounds as process feedstock has proven to be one of th...
Anaerobic co-digestion of agro-industrial and municipal biowastes can enhance methane production, but the optimal mixture depends on nonlinear interactions among substrates. This study evaluated swine wastewater (SW), cheese whey (CW), and the organi...
The growing demand for energy and the environmental impacts of fossil fuels have driven the search for sustainable alternatives such as biodiesel. Castor oil stands out as a promising non-edible feedstock but requires optimization strategies to overc...
