Bio-hythane production from food waste by dark fermentation coupled with anaerobic digestion process: A long-term pilot scale experience [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper are presented the results of the investigation on optimal process operational conditions of thermophilic dark fermentation and anaerobic digestion of food waste, testing a long term run, applying an organic loading rate of 16.3 kgTVS/m3d in

Impact of Packaging and Recycling Systems on Material Recirculation: A Stage‐Decomposition Model

open access: yesPackaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
A system‐level view emerges from decomposing recycling into four stages (participation, collection, sorting and process yield), diagnosing constraints and targeting interventions. Cumulative equivalent uses (CEUs) quantify long‐term retention, revealing marginal improvements at high baselines generate disproportionately larger gains than low‐baseline ...

Climate effects of recycled fertilizers and biochar: emissions of nitrous oxide, methane and ammonia in a field experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background Nitrogen (N) fertilizers are essential for crop production. Farmyard manure and slurry traditionally constitute about half of the total N inputs into crop production in Switzerland.

Dynamics of Circular Economy Transformation Processes in Relation to Individual Waste Types Recycling – Net Zero for Sustainable Development

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract The main goal of the study is the quantification of the disparities in the recycling rates of the individual types of waste in the European Union member countries. The data on the waste recycling rates for the period 2004–2021 come from Eurostat. A linear regression analysis is engaged for the analytical processing.

Fluorescence based detection of bioaerosols to improve emissions characterization from environmental sources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Bioaerosols are ubiquitous in ambient air but there have been increasing concerns about their human exposure and to health impact due to ever increasing environmental emissions from sources such as biowaste and intensive agriculture facilities (Borlée ...

Tracer Test as a Tool for Optimizing the Flow Patterns and Efficiency of a Full‐Scale Drainage Water Treatment Wetland

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
Tracer testing assessed hydraulics and nitrate removal in three full‐scale agricultural drainage treatment wetlands over 3.5 years (three tests). The first test showed rapid, short‐circuited flow and low residence time. After modifying the collection system, the second test increased residence time from 1 to 7 days.

Leveraging Carbon Quantum Dots to Achieve UN Sustainable Development Goals in the Face of Climate Change

open access: yesClimate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) play a significant role in supporting the UN SDGs by promoting the sustainable management of energy, healthcare, remediation, and agriculture in a multidisciplinary manner. It focuses on reducing waste, toxicity, and energy use while utilizing renewable resources.

Closing the Loop: Italian Waste Biomass as a Sustainable Source for Sodium‐Ion Battery Anodes

open access: yesphysica status solidi (a), Volume 223, Issue 7, 7 April 2026.
Research into sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs) is of paramount importance for developing a sustainable energy system in the EU. SIBs offer a cheaper alternative to lithium‐ion batteries that rely on graphite by using waste biomass, which is usually discarded, to prepare hard carbons that can be used as an anode material.
