Circular economy and waste to energy

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2018
Waste management in European Union has long being regulated by the 4Rs principle, i.e. reduction, reuse, recycling, recovery, with landfill disposal as the last option. This vision recently led the European Union (especially since 2015) to the introduction of virtuous goals based on the rejection of linear economy in favour of circular economy strongly

Waste-to-energy

2022
Many conversion technologies and processes for bioenergy generation from wastes have been reported and discussed in the previous chapters. These conversion technologies are being selected and applied depending on the type of wastes, chemical composition of the available waste and the desired energy vector.

Waste or energy?

Pollack Periodica, 2014
Production and utilization of renewable energy sources (e.g. biogas) are justified not only by energy-political, but by environmental aspects, too. It can be verified the necessity of the complex ecological aspects by biogas production experiments and its utilization tests in gas engines therefore we created a complex biogas production and utilization ...

Waste-to-energy: Dehalogenation of plastic-containing wastes

Waste Management, 2016
The dehalogenation measurements could be carried out with the decomposition of plastic wastes simultaneously or successively. This paper reviewed the progresses in dehalogenation followed by thermochemical conversion of plastic-containing wastes for clean energy production.

Wasting Energy to Treat Obesity

New England Journal of Medicine, 2016
A means of “burning fat” — shunting protons to a thermogenic pathway rather than an energy-producing one — is mediated by UCP1, which is expressed in the mitochondria of brown fat. A study in mice has uncovered a similar mechanism in skeletal muscle and white adipose tissue.
