The global demand for sustainable protein sources is driving research into microbial protein production, with hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria identified as particularly promising candidates. This research investigates the ...
As research on sustainable and advanced materials accelerates (e.g., cellulose-based composites and functionalized nanomaterials), research output has expanded rapidly, increasing complexity and making it challenging for ...
Achieving compatibility between biopolymers and natural fillers is a significant challenge in developing sustainable materials. PLA–lignin biocomposites frequently demonstrate poor interfacial adhesion, mostly due to ...
Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a biopolymer that resembles oil-based plastics in its mechanical properties. However, in manufacturing techniques such as fused deposition modeling (FDM), the inherent characteristics of the ...
Due to environmental concerns about non-biodegradability of conventional plastic packaging, there is a growing shift towards sustainable alternatives such as paper-based food packaging. In this context, Pickering emulsions ...
This study used widely available waste biomass, corn cob (CC), to remove Pb ions from aqueous solutions. A two-step conversion of this material was carried out to improve its adsorption characteristics. Firstly, CC was ...
This study presents a green and solvent-free methodology based on thermal desorption coupled to gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (TD-GC-MS) to characterise cork's volatile aromatic (VOC) profile. Samples from three ...
Following on from a circular economy in water, membrane technologies can play a role in resource recovery and high-quality water production but should also consider membrane industry circularity. Anaerobic membrane bioreactors ...
Novel strategies to control diseases caused by Xylella fastidiosa that affectaffectaffectimportant crops like grapevine, olive, almond, and citrus are necessary to prevent its establishment and spread in several countries. ...
This study presents a comprehensive textural characterization of raw bluefin and yellowfin tuna muscle to establish reference parameters for developing plant-based analogs (PBAs) designed for raw consumption. Five instrumental ...
Machine learning regression models are increasingly used to improve management, decision-making, and monitoring of drinking water quality, leveraging growing data from real-time sensors and laboratory analyses. However, ...
Cellulose nanofibers are gaining attention as innovative biobased materials due to their remarkable surface area, versatility in functionalization, and superior mechanical properties, making them ideal for applications in ...
Carbon capture and utilization technologies play an essential role in improving indoor air quality by reducing elevated levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in enclosed spaces, which have a wide range of effects on human health. ...
The present study investigates the intricate relationships between the properties of cellulose nanomaterials (CNMs) and the lignocellulosic feedstocks from which they are derived. The starting pulps, consisting of eucalyptus, ...
Screen filters (SFs) are widely used for water purification. Particles adhered to the SF surface can block flow channels and potentially result in changes in the SF filtration level. However, the impact of blockage on the ...
Low-salinity waterflooding (LSWF) has emerged as a promising enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technique due to its cost-effectiveness and suitability for complex carbonate reservoirs. This critical and comprehensive review ...
Forward osmosis (FO) is gaining prominence as a concentration process. However, most systematic studies remain limited to setups involving recirculating feed solution (FS) and draw solution (DS), and employing small membrane ...
L'aigua és un recurs essencial per a la vida i el desenvolupament humà. Malgrat això, milions de persones arreu del món encara no tenen accés a infraestructures adequades per a la gestió i el tractament de l'aigua. Aquesta ...
This study proposes a novel methodology to assess fouling that complements the flux-step test (FST) by integrating aeration-step tests (ASTs) to optimise the specific aeration demand (SADm) for ultrafiltration hollow-fibre ...
In drip irrigation systems, media filters are frequently used to avoid emitter clogging, but periodic backwashing is required to restore media filtration capacity. Backwashing reverses the flow, fluidises the media, and ...
