R2EM - Resource Recovery and Environmental Management
R2EM group is developing research activity on development of sustainable urban and industrial waste management cycles based on resource recovery approaches promoting circular solutions of waste to product and waste to energy. Research also involves efforts on developing environmental remediation solutions for soils and ground water remediation, process and environmental monitoring and environmental risk assessment on ports.

In-depth insights on multi-ionic transport in electrodialysis with bipolar membrane systems
(Elsevier, 2023-07-15)
Article
Accés obertElectrodialysis with Bipolar Membranes (EDBM) has become a key technology for valorising waste brine streams as a new chemical production route. Even though its application has been widely studied using single electrolyte ... -

The european (green?) deal: a systematic analysis of environmental sustainability
(John Wiley & sons, 2023-07-26)
Article
Accés obertTransitioning towards a sustainable society is at the core of public planning in the EU through the European Green Deal (EGD). However, is the EGD a master plan for actual sustainable development in the EU? This work aims ... -
Molybdenum release from high burnup spent nuclear fuel at alkaline and hyperalkaline pH
(Elsevier, 2023-01-01)
Article
Accés obertThis work presents experimental data and modelling of the release of Mo from high-burnup spent nuclear fuel (63 MWd/kgU) at two different pH values, 8.4 and 13.2 in air. The release of Mo from SF to the solution is around ... -

Modelling the release of Mo, Tc, Ru and Rh from high burnup spent nuclear fuel at alkaline and hyperalkaline pH
(Cambridge University Press, 2023-12-30)
Article
Accés obertThe present work shows experimental data on the release of some radionuclides that are forming the so-called e particles in the spent nuclear fuel (SNF): Mo, Tc, Ru and Rh. The leaching experiments were carried out with a ... -
Bioderived pickering emulsion based on chitosan/trialkyl phosphine oxides applied to selective recovery of rare Earth elements
(2023-12-13)
Article
Accés obertA novel biobased pickering emulsion (PE) material was prepared by the encapsulation of Cyanex 923 (Cy923) into chitosan (CS) to selectively recover rare earth elements (REEs) from the aqueous phase. The preparation of PE ... -
Role of imperfections in transfer of organic micro-pollutants through RO/NF membranes: Numerical study
(Elsevier, 2023-12-15)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialDue to relatively low diffusivities, the rejection of organic micro-pollutants in pressure-driven membrane processes is more affected by Concentration Polarization (CP) than that of typical inorganic ions. On the other ... -
Gd2O3 doped UO2(s) corrosion in the presence of silicate and calcium under alkaline conditions
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-12-01)
Article
Accés obertThe anodic reactivity of UO2 and UO2 doped with Gd2O3 was investigated by electrochemical methods in slightly alkaline conditions in the presence of silicate and calcium. At the end of the experiments, the electrodes were ...
