Recovery of rare earth elements from acidic mine waters: a circular treatment scheme utilizing selective precipitation and ion exchange
(2024-06)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyAcidic Mine Waters (AMW) pose significant environmental hazards due to their high acidity and metal content. Traditional treatment methods involve neutralizing the acidity and removing metals as hydroxides, but they generate ... -
Techno-economic evaluation of antimony and bismuth upcycling from pyrometallurgical copper wastes
(Elsevier, 2024-04-11)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe recovery of critical raw materials (CRMs) is important to reduce the supply risk disruption and the dependency on third-countries within the European Union (EU). The present study evaluates the techno-economic implications ... -
Unlocking hidden mineral resources: Characterization and potential of bitterns as alternative sources of critical raw materials
(Elsevier, 2024-01-10)
Article
Open AccessMineral extraction from seawater brines has emerged as a viable solution to reduce Europe's reliance on imported Critical Raw Materials (CRM). However, the economic viability of this approach hinges on the local demand for ... -
Enhancing the performance of a novel CoRu/CeO2 bimetallic catalyst for the dry reforming of methane via a mechanochemical process
(Elsevier, 2024-05-15)
Article
Open AccessA mechanochemical synthesis method has been used to synthesize CoRu nanoparticles supported on CeO2 for methane dry reforming. In this work, we study the effect of Ru addition to Co/CeO2-based catalysts and of the synthesis ... -
Reclamation of impacted urban phreatic water through nanofiltration technology: Insight on natural organic matter removal by fluorescence spectroscopy
(Elsevier, 2024-02)
Article
Open AccessNanofiltration (NF) is a promising technology called to play a relevant role in water reclamation, which lies in the core of circular economy in the water sector. The aim of this study was to assess two aromatic polyamide-based ... -
Elimination of interface energy barriers using dendrimer polyelectrolytes with fractal geometry
(2023-06-03)
Article
Open AccessIn this work we study conjugated polyelectrolyte (CPE) films based on polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers of generations G1 and G3. These fractal macromolecules are compared to branched polyethylenimine (b-PEI) polymer using ... -
Selective recovery of boron, cobalt, gallium and germanium from seawater solar saltworks brines using N-methylglucamine sorbents: column operation performance
(Elsevier, 2024-05)
Article
Open AccessThe European Union (EU) identified a list of Critical Raw Materials (CRMs) crucial for its economy, aiming to find alternative sources. Seawater is a promising option as it contains almost all elements, although most at ... -
Molybdenum release from high burnup spent nuclear fuel at alkaline and hyperalkaline pH
(Elsevier, 2023-01-01)
Article
Open AccessThis 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
Open AccessThe 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 ... -
Relevant parameters for the mechanochemical synthesis of bimetallic supported catalysts
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-12-14)
Article
Open AccessMechanochemical synthesis for the preparation of bimetallic catalysts is gaining increasing interest, and in recent years, some important milestones have been reached. However, the complexity of mechanochemically prepared ... -
CFD simulation of explosions in fired combustion chambers
(Associazione Italiana Di Ingegneria Chimica, 2023-01-01)
Article
Open AccessA wide range of equipment (boilers, furnaces, reformers, etc.) in industrial processes use fired combustion chambers to retrieve heat from a fuel. Although these systems have been used since long time and their safety has ... -
