Volatile organic compounds’ (VOCs) emissions in the atmosphere are among the gases that can affect the health of the exposed population and can be harmful to the environment. One possible solution to control the VOCs’ emissions is the application of algal-based technology like photobioreactor (PBR). In this paper, advanced algal–bacterial PBR was assessed and evaluated… Continue reading Sustainable Treatment of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) by Integrated Algal–bacterial Photobioreactor
The harvesting of microalgae strongly affects their effective application as a source of biomass for fuels and chemicals. The aim of this study was the evaluation of the performance of the recently developed Encapsulated Self-Forming Dynamic Membrane (ESFDM) module integrated into a cylindrical photobioreactor (PBR) for the efficient and simultaneous microalgae biomass cultivation and harvesting.… Continue reading An integrated algal membrane photobioreactor as a green-transition technology for the carbon capture and utilization
The rising of greenhouse-gas emissions (GHG), during the last 200 years, is associated to the well known global warming phenomena. One of the main sources of CO2-equivalent GHGs emissions are the environmental protection plants accounting for 1.57% of the global emissions and thus sustainable and effective technologies for their mitigation are strongly needed. The current… Continue reading Innovative membrane photobioreactor for sustainable CO2 capture and utilization
