Journal ArticleDOI
Life cycle assessment of macroalgae cultivation and processing for biofuel production
Douglas Aitken,Cristian Bulboa,Alex Godoy-Faúndez,Juan L. Turrion-Gomez,Blanca Antizar-Ladislao +4 more
TL;DR: The results suggested that using base case conditions the production of both bioethanol and biogas from bottom planted Gracilaria chilensis was the most sustainable option due to the low input method of cultivation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Water Scarcity and the Impact of the Mining and Agricultural Sectors in Chile
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors quantify the water scarcity in the central and northern regions of Chile by calculating a water scarcity index, which measures the ratio of annual water demand to availability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of biosolids and their main components on chalcopyrite, molybdenite and pyrite: Zeta potential and FTIR spectroscopy studies
Lorenzo Reyes-Bozo,Mauricio Escudey,Eduardo Vyhmeister,Pablo Higueras,Alex Godoy-Faúndez,José Luis Salazar,Héctor Valdés-González,Germán Wolf-Sepúlveda,Ronaldo Herrera-Urbina +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to assess the electrokinetic characteristics of chalcopyrite, molybdenite and pyrite.
Journal ArticleDOI
Legal disputes as a proxy for regional conflicts over water rights in Chile
Diego Rivera,Alex Godoy-Faúndez,Mario Lillo,Amaya Alvez,Verónica Delgado,Consuelo Gonzalo-Martin,Ernestina Menasalvas,Roberto Costumero,Angel Garcia-Pedrero +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors apply a geographical approach by mapping water conflicts using legal disputes reaching the higher courts as a proxy for conflict intensity and explain the diversity of water disputes and how they vary regionally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Greening Chilean copper mining operations through industrial ecology strategies
Lorenzo Reyes-Bozo,Alex Godoy-Faúndez,Ronaldo Herrera-Urbina,Pablo Higueras,José Luis Salazar,Héctor Valdés-González,Eduardo Vyhmeister,Blanca Antizar-Ladislao +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual model based on industrial ecology and cleaner production principles is proposed for greening the overall copper sulphide ore processing, where biosolids and humic acids have shown to be potential candidates to partially substitute traditional organic chemicals used in industrial flotation of copper sulfide ores.
