Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrothermal carbonization coupled with anaerobic digestion for the valorization of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste.
Michela Lucian,Maurizio Volpe,Fabio Merzari,Dominik Wüst,Dominik Wüst,Andrea Kruse,Gianni Andreottola,Luca Fiori +7 more
TL;DR: HTC coupled with AD demonstrates to be an efficient way to valorize of municipal solid waste (OFMSW).
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of olive wastes as energy source: pyrolysis, torrefaction and the key role of H loss in thermal breakdown
TL;DR: In this article, the first stage of a multi-stage process seeking to develop a usable and cheap design for a downdraft gasifier fed with lingocellulosic olive waste was described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Valorizing municipal solid waste: Waste to energy and activated carbons for water treatment via pyrolysis
TL;DR: In this article, pyrolyzing a model MSW stream at 408°C, the peak mass loss rate pyrolysis temperature, was compared to pyrolynzing at 900°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metallic lead recovery from lead-acid battery paste by urea acetate dissolution and cementation on iron
Maurizio Volpe,D. Oliveri,Germano Ferrara,M. Salvaggio,Salvatore Piazza,S. Italiano,Carmelo Sunseri +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a suitable hydrometallurgical and environmentally friendly process was studied to replace the currently used practices for recycling lead-acid batteries via smelting, where up to 99.7% of lead acid battery paste was converted to metallic lead by cementation from industrial lead sludge solutions of urea acetate using different types of metallic iron substrates (nails, shaving or powder) as reducing agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cationic Dye Adsorption on Hydrochars of Winery and Citrus Juice Industries Residues: Performance, Mechanism, and Thermodynamics
TL;DR: In this article, the residues from winery and citrus juice industries, namely grape skin and orange peel, respectively, were first converted to hydrochars by hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) and then a cationic dye (methylene blue) adsorption was studied on hydro chars.
