(2020-03-11)
Article
Open AccessRemoval of heavy metals from wastewater is mandatory in order to avoid water pollution of natural reservoirs. In the present study, layered double hydroxide (LDH) materials were evaluated for removal of zinc from aqueous ... -
Review of initiatives and methodologies to reduce CO2 emissions and climate change effects in ports
(2020-06)
Article
Open AccessPorts are important infrastructures for economic growth and development. Among the most significant environmental aspects of ports that contribute to the issue of climate change are those due to carbon dioxide emissions ... -
Novel multifunctional biosurfactant obtained from corn as a stabilizing agent for antidandruff formulations based on Zn pyrithione powder
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2020-03-16)
Article
Open AccessThe cosmetic industry provides a wide variety of shampoos to treat dandru¿, containing insoluble ingredients such as Zn pyrithione. However, the solubility of this active ingredient is quite limited in both water and oil ... -
Fungistatic and fungicidal capacity of a biosurfactant extract obtained from corn steep water
(2020-05-20)
Article
Open AccessBiosurfactants are surface-active compounds that are produced by microorganisms, which in addition to their surfactant capacity, can possess interesting antimicrobial activities that are used in their incorporation into ... -
Calculating the Carbon Footprint in ports by using a standardized tool
(Elsevier, 2020-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyOne of the significant environmental threats in ports in recent years are carbon dioxide emissions generated by different activities carried out in these areas, which lead to Climate Change. In the maritime industry, this ... -
Study of biosurfactant extract from corn steep water as a potential ingredient in antiacne formulations
(2020-04-23)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyBackground: This is a novel work that includes the use of a biosurfactant extract obtained from corn milling industry (named BS-CSW), with antimicrobial activity, as ingredient in formulations to treat acne vulgaris. ... -
A potential lignocellulosic biomass based on banana waste for critical rare earths recovery from aqueous solutions
(2020-04-29)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyRare earth elements (REE) present multiple applications in technological devices but also drawbacks (scarcity and water contaminant). The current study aims to valorise the banana wastes - banana rachis (BR), banana ... -
Influence of membrane sealing in pressure-driven test cells on their performance
(2019-01-01)
Article
Open AccessThis communication demonstrates the relevance of membrane sealing in a test cell to its performance. Membranes need to be sealed, and therefore a more or less significant (depending on the test cell design) peripheral part ... -
A limiting case of constant counterion electrochemical potentials in the membrane for examining ion transfer at ion-exchange membranes and patches
(2019-10-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIon passage through ion-exchange membranes is vital in electrodialysis desalination, batteries and fuel cells, and water splitting. Simplified models of ion transport through such membranes frequently assume complete ... -
