Application of Models to Eutrophication in Lakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
One of the phenomena that causes ecological concerns is lake eutrophication. Lakes are under the threat of water quality degradation and ecological imbalance due to increased anthropogenic activity, particularly in developing countries.

Bioeconomy, sustainability, and digital technologies in Haematococcus lacustris biomass and astaxanthin production: advances and outlook

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Astaxanthin is a carotenoid with strong antioxidant properties, used in research on cancer treatment, ocular injuries, and neurological disorders. When produced by the microalgae Haematococcus lacustris, its antioxidant potential is even higher than that of the synthetic molecule, making it particularly attractive for pharmaceutical and ...

The use of diatom records to establish reference conditions for UK lakes subject to eutrophication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A knowledge of pre-disturbance conditions is important for setting realistic restoration targets for lakes. For European waters this is now a requirement of the European Council Water Framework Directive where ecological status must be assessed based on ...

Circular economy assessment of biomethane value chain in Brazil

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract From the numerous opportunities to add value to biomass in Brazil, biomethane production in sugarcane mills presents significant potential. This study introduces a diagnostic framework grounded in circular economy (CE) principles to assess new biomethane projects, aligning with the strategic objectives of product diversification, full biomass ...

Long‐term assessment of the effect of OLR, HRT and temperature on domestic sewage treatment using AnMBR to enhance biomethane production

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of an anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) to treat domestic sewage by removing organic matter and nutrients while producing biogas. AnMBRs combine anaerobic digestion with membrane filtration, and stand out for their low energy consumption, low sludge production and potential for ...

Integrated assessment of marine biodiversity status using a prototype indicator-based assessment tool [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Integrated assessment of the status of marine biodiversity is and has been problematic compared to, for example, assessments of eutrophication and contamination status, mostly as a consequence of the fact that monitoring of marine habitats, communities ...

Biotic modulators of global change effects on plant communities

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding and predicting future plant biodiversity and productivity is critical for prioritizing global change mitigation, conservation, and restoration efforts. One major challenge is that we know remarkably little about how interspecific interactions may modulate the effects of global change factors on diversity and productivity.
