Teaching with a gender lens: insights from a guide to inclusive practices in civil engineering
(École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), 2024)
Conference report
Open AccessWithin higher education, integrating gender perspectives into teaching is crucial for inclusivity and addressing gender disparities. This article presents a guideline from the "Xarxa Vives Guides," a resource offering ... -
Recovery of bio-based products and bioenergy from microalgae in the framework of a circular bioeconomy
(ITU Press, 2024)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis presentation will provide an overview on role of anaerobic digestion in microalgae biorefineries intended to recover value-added bio-based products and bioenergy from waste streams. Firstly, the results of several ... -
Integrated microalgal biorefinery for carotenoids and bioenergy recovery
(ITU Press, 2024)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis study aimed to evaluate the potential of microalgae grown in wastewater to recover carotenoids and biogas in a biorefinery approach. To this end, two pilot raceway ponds treating real wastewater were operated with a ... -
The role of anaerobic digestion in the sustainable management of olive mill solid waste: a techno-economic study
(ITU Press, 2024)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyOlive oil production, with a market value of 13.4 billion euros, generates annually 10 million tons of olive mill solid waste (OMSW), yet sustainable technologies for the valorisation of this material are still missing at ... -
Life cycle assessment of low-cost technologies for digestate treatment and reuse in small-scale farms in Colombia
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022)
Conference report
Open AccessAnaerobic digestion (AD) is a practice that is mainly carried out to give treatment to different kinds of organic residues (e.g. food waste, manure, agricultural residues) in order to obtain biogas and produce bioenergy. ... -
Integrating Sustainability snd Social Commitment (S&SC) competences in the curriculum at the Barcelona School of Civil Engineering
(European Society for Engineering Education (SEFI), 2022)

Methodology for integrated multicriteria decision-making with uncertainty (MIMDU) for robust analysis. Case study about agricultural efficiency in Colombia
(2022)
Conference report
Open AccessSelecting the best among different alternatives may require asking for experts’ opinions to weight key criteria and assess the alternatives. Their opinions can be: 1) hesitant, and 2) difficult to quantify on a numerical ... -
Numerical analysis of hydrodynamic conditions in pilot flat-panel photobioreactor: operating and design parameters influence on the microalgae cultivation
(ETA Florence Renewable Energies, 2019)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe aim of this work was to investigate the influence of hydrodynamic conditions on the process of microalgae cultivation in a pilot flat-panel photobioreactor (150 L of culture medium). Based on the pulse-input indicator ... -
Numerical investigation of hydrodynamic conditions in a pilot tubular photobioreactor
(WIP Renewable Energies, 2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyA numerical simulation using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was utilized to investigate the flow hydrodynamics of pilot horizontal tubular photobioreactor (PBR) with a 11 700 L culture medium. To establish the reliability ... -
Digital twins in civil and environmental engineering classrooms
(International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE), 2018)
Conference report
Open AccessDigital twins are understood as digital replica of physical models whose behavior can be observed simultaneously (digitally and physically) in real time. These tools are increasingly used in advanced industries for several ... -
Comparison of the mesophilic and thermophilic anaerobic sludge digestion from an energy perspective
(Destech, 2011)
Conference report
Open AccessAnaerobic digestion promotes simultaneous sludge stabilisation and bioenergy generation. Increasing the net energy production would contribute in reducing the energy demand of sewage treatment plants. Thermophilic digestion ... -
