Recovery of polyphenols from agri-food by-products: the olive Oil and winery industries cases
(2022-02-01)
Article
Open AccessThe production of olive oil and wine are two of the main agri-food economic activities in Southern Europe. They generate large amounts of solid and liquid wastes (e.g., olive pomace, olive mill wastewater, grape pomace, ... -
Selective precipitation of calcium ion from seawater desalination reverse osmosis brine
(2021-12-15)
Article
Open AccessThe near zero liquid discharge (NZLD) approach, by recovering water and dissolved valuable salts, is the most attractive clean solution for the valorisation of brines from seawater desalination reverse osmosis (SWD-RO) ... -
Recovery of polyphenols from bio-food waste: From waste of difficult disposal to valuable ingredients in the cosmetic field
(2020-10)
Article
Open AccessL’industria chimica moderna concentra gran parte delle sue risorse nella gestione dei residui che derivano dai diversi processi produttivi. L’obiettivo principale è gestire questi residui nel rispetto dell’ambiente, ... -
Recovery of added-value compounds from orange and spinach processing residues: green extraction of phenolic compounds and evaluation of antioxidant activity
(2021-11-11)
Article
Open AccessPhenolic compounds recovery by mechanical stirring extraction (MSE) was studied from orange and spinach wastes using water as a solvent. The statistical analysis showed that the highest total polyphenol content (TPC) yield ... -
Insights on the environmental management system of the European port sector
(Elsevier, 2022-02)
Article
Open AccessThis research focusses on assessing the environmental performance of European Ports based on a wide representation of EcoPorts members. The data is extracted from the Self-Diagnosis Method (SDM), a concise checklist against ... -
Polyphenols and their potential role to fight viral diseases: An overview
(Elsevier, 2021-12)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyFruits, vegetables, spices, and herbs are a potential source of phenolic acids and polyphenols. These compounds are known as natural by-products or secondary metabolites of plants, which are present in the daily diet and ... -
Evaluation of calcium alginate-based biopolymers as potential component of membranes for recovering biosurfactants from corn steep water
(2021-08-31)
Article
Open AccessCorn steep water (CSW) is a complex agro-food stream that is used as a source of cost-competitive biosurfactants, since they are produced spontaneously in the steeping process of corn, avoiding production costs. Nevertheless, ... -
Iron-doped natural clays: Low-cost inorganic adsorbents for phosphate recovering from simulated urban treated wastewater
(2021-10-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyNatural inorganic adsorbents are attractive for pollutants removal due to the easy operation, non-toxic char- acteristics and low cost. In this study, two raw clays (C1 and C2) were doped with iron and evaluated for the ... -
Multivariate analysis of the operational parameters and environmental factors of an industrial solar pond
(2021-07-15)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe stability of an industrial Salinity Gradient Solar Pond (SGSP) has been studied by applying classical Principal Component Analysis (PCA) on three datasets with a different number of variables and time evolution. ... -
Paired electrochemical removal of nitrate and terbuthylazine pesticide from groundwater using mesh electrodes
(2021-07-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyGroundwater is one of the main freshwater resources on Earth, but its contamination with NO3- and pesticides jeopardizes its viability as a source of drinking water. In this work, a detailed study of single electro-oxidation ... -
