Atmospheric BTEX concentrations in the vicinity of the crude oil refinery of the Baltic region
TL;DR: Concentration of benzene, as strictly regulated air pollutant by EU Directive 2008/50/EC, did not exceed the limit of 5 ppbv in the region in the vicinity of the crude oil refinery during the investigated period.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, different types of magnetic biochar nanocomposites were synthesized using the co-precipitation method, and two biochar materials, namely, sewage sludge and woodchips, were prepared at two different temperatures, viz., 450 and 700 °C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Testing of Chlorella/Scenedesmus microalgae consortia for remediation of wastewater, CO2 mitigation and algae biomass feasibility for lipid production
TL;DR: In this paper, experiments were carried out in order to establish the feasibility of treating the local municipal wastewater with microalgae consortia and their biomass potential for biofuel production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochar from Pine and Birch Morphology and Pore Structure Change by Treatment in Biofilter
TL;DR: In this paper, the morphology of biochar produced from birch and pine at different temperatures, its pore structure and changes depending on the type of pollutant and microorganisms used in biofiltrating media.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation into the air treatment efficiency of biofilters of different structures
TL;DR: In this article, biological and ad-sorptive air treatment methods are employed to clean the air from volatile organic compounds by mixing foam and zeolite with wood chips, which improves the efficiency of the device and extends the useful life of a charge.
