Algal-algal bioflocculation enhances the recovery efficiency of Picochlorum sp. QUCCCM130 with low auto-settling capacity
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2023 , Article)
Large-scale production of microalgal biomass is still considered non-viable due to the high cost and energy required for harvesting. A fast, cost-effective, and successful harvesting technique has become widely sought after ...
Microalgal Feedstock for Biofuel Production: Recent Advances, Challenges, and Future Perspective
(
MDPI
, 2023 , Article)
Globally, nations are trying to address environmental issues such as global warming and climate change, along with the burden of declining fossil fuel reserves. Furthermore, countries aim to reach zero carbon emissions ...
Dry mesophilic anaerobic co-digestion of vegetable wastes with animal manures using leach bed reactor
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2023 , Article)
Anaerobic digestion is an environmentally sustainable technology for converting a variety of organic solid feedstocks to energy in the form of methane. To improve methane yield, the digestion of more than one waste is ...
Study of microbial communities and environmental parameters of seawater collected from three Tunisian fishing harbors in Kerkennah Islands: Statistical analysis of the temporal and spatial dynamics
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
Surface seawater, collected from three fishing harbors during different seasons of the years 2015, 2016 and 2017, were assessed for physico-chemical analyses. Results showed that seawater was mainly polluted by hydrocarbons ...
Box-Behnken approach for optimization of Cr(III) removal from a real tanning effluent using powdered marble
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2022 , Article)
During the tanning step, 30-40% of trivalent chromium remains in the solid and liquid wastes, generating highly polluted sewage. In this study, powdered marble was used as a low-cost adsorbent to remove trivalent chromium ...
