Using fuzzy logic to evaluate fire vulnerability of dwellings located at the wildland-urban interface
(2022)
Conference report
Open AccessWUI fires are posing great challenges to firefighting services, which are overwhelmed by the need to not only suppress the fire, but also protect the community. The need for self-protection is therefore growing, as is the ... -
Vulnerability analysis to wildland- urban interface fires in metropolitan areas: an integrated approach
(2022)
Conference lecture
Open AccessWildfires pose a growing threat to populated areas around the world and especially in the Mediterranean Basin. Numerous Mediterranean cities have typically developed neighbourhoods that expand into forest land in which ... -
Fire performance of residential shipping containers designed with a shaft wall system
(2022)
Conference report
Open Accessseven story building made of shipping containers is planned to be built in Barcelona, Spain. This study mainly aimed to evaluate the fire performance of one of these residential shipping containers whose walls and ceiling ... -
Modelling and parameter fitting of the dosage of hydrogen peroxide in a photo-fenton process
(2022)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis study addresses the modelling of the photo-Fenton processes, sensitivity analysis, and parameter fitting, focusing on the supply of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and aiming at the future exploitation in model-based ... -
Towards automated information retrieval of process data and knowledge from academic databases
(2021)
Conference lecture
Open AccessProcess modeling requires both data (chemical reaction yields, kinetic constants, cost estimates, environmental indicators, etc.) and knowledge (operation models and formulations, alternative processes and technologies, ... -
A hybrid model coupling Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOP) and conventional bio-processes for the removal of recalcitrant contaminants in wastewaters
(2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe combined use of Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOP) and conventional bio-processes has been suggested for the efficient treatment of wastewaters with a significant presence of recalcitrant contaminants. However, no ... -
Fixed-bed column sorption of ammonium from treated municipal wastewater using clinoptilolite
(2020)
Conference lecture
Open AccessThe sorption of ammonium (NH4+) ion was measured in a continuous fixed-bed column via employing a granular natural zeolite (clinoptilolite). The column performances were investigated at influent flow rate of 0.22 mL/min. ... -
Optimal design and planning multi resource-based energy integration in process industries
(Elsevier, 2019)
Conference report
Open AccessRecently, process industries have experienced a significant pressure to shift from centralized energy supplying systems to the in-situ exploitation of renewable resources. Special attention has been paid to multi resource-based ... -
Synthesis and assessment of waste-to-resource routes for circular economy
(Elsevier, 2020)
Conference report
Open AccessThe benefits of the circular economy paradigm have been proven during the past two decades, but its application poses some challenges that still need to be tackled. This contribution presents a systematic way to generate ... -
A MILP model for enhancing wastewater networks by introducing reclaimed wastewater usage
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessWastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are an example of available but underutilized waste-to-resource processes. Economic benefit opportunities can be generated through the design and operation of WWTPs following a circular ... -
Improving photo-Fenton process by hydrogen peroxide dosage strategies. Dissolved oxygen performance indicator
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessFenton and photo-Fenton are Advanced Oxidation processes driven by the supply of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). However, excessive hydrogen peroxide supply results in unproductive reactions and causes the process performance ... -
Optimal Design and planning supply chains of multi renewable resource-based energy/material applied in process industries
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessIn this work, the effects of multi renewable resource-based energy integration in material supply chains are analysed under stochastic and deterministic conditions. The proposed approach is based on the development of a ...
