Journal ArticleDOI

Heavy metal ions removal from metal plating wastewater using electrocoagulation: Kinetic study and process performance

TL;DR: In this article, the main objective was the removal of heavy metal ions, namely Cu2+, Cr3+, Ni2+ and Zn2+, from metal plating wastewater using electrocoagulation technique.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of Tween-20 on simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of softwood to ethanol

TL;DR: The effect of the non-ionic surfactant Tween-20 as an additive in SSF had several positive effects on SSF: the ethanol yield was increased by 8%; the amount of enzyme loading could be reduced by 50%, while maintaining a constant yield.
Journal ArticleDOI

Environmental impacts of solar photovoltaic systems: A critical review of recent progress and future outlook

TL;DR: The results revealed that the negative environmental impacts of PV systems could be substantially mitigated using optimized design, development of novel materials, minimize the use of hazardous materials, recycling whenever possible, and careful site selection.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparison between batch and fed-batch simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of steam pretreated spruce

TL;DR: The aim of the present work was to increase the fibrous content in SSF of steam pretreated spruce to 10% by adapting the yeast to the inhibitory substrate and by using a fed-batch process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of strain and cultivation procedure on the performance of simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of steam pretreated spruce

TL;DR: The cultivation procedure was found to have a significant impact on the performance during SSF, as well as in small-scale fermentations of hydrolysate liquor without solid material, suggesting that the adaptation of the yeast to the inhibitors present in the medium is an important factor that must be considered in the design of SSF processes.
