Brewery and winery wastewater treatment : some focal points of design and operation
António G. Brito,João Peixoto,José M. Oliveira,José Alves de Oliveira,Cristina Amaro da Costa,Regina Nogueira,A. C. Rodrigues +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present some key points on design and operation in wastewater treatment of brewery and winery industries, including an introduction of the industrial processes and then wastewater characteristics and treatment processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resources recovery in the dairy industry: bioelectricity production using a continuous microbial fuel cell
Ana Paula Faria,Liliana P. L. Gonçalves,João Peixoto,L. Peixoto,António G. Brito,Gilberto Martins +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the performance of a continuous microbial fuel cell (MFC) applied in a dairy industry and showed that it is a valuable option for simultaneous wastewater treatment and energy recovery and deserves to be tested and scaled up in the dairy industry.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Removing useless APs and fingerprints from WiFi indoor positioning radio maps
TL;DR: The results show that there is possibility to simplify the radio maps of the positioning engines without significant degradation on the positioning precision and accuracy, and therefore to reduce the processing time for estimating the position of a tracked WiFi tag.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biocompatibility and Bioimaging Potential of Fruit-Based Carbon Dots.
Cindy Dias,N. Vasimalai,Marisa P. Sárria,Ivone Pinheiro,Vânia Vilas-Boas,João Peixoto,Begoña Espiña +6 more
TL;DR: Kiwi CD exhibited the highest toxicity to both cells lines and zebrafish embryos, presenting lower LD50 values, Interestingly, despite inducing lower cytotoxicity in normal cells than the other CDs, black pepper CDs resulted in higher toxicity in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of marine phycotoxin okadaic acid on a covalent organic framework
Laura M. Salonen,S. R. Pinela,Soraia P. S. Fernandes,João Louçano,Enrique Carbó-Argibay,Marisa P. Sárria,Carlos Rodríguez-Abreu,João Peixoto,Begoña Espiña +8 more
TL;DR: A water-stable covalent organic framework (COF) was evaluated as adsorbent for the hydrophobic toxin okadaic acid, one of themost relevant marine toxins and the parental compound of the most common group of toxins responsible for the diarrhetic shellfish poisoning.
