Lab scale study of the influence of the acid strength over the performance of an acid-enhanced electrokinetic remediation
(Northeastern University, 2013)It is widely accepted that, when an electrokinetic remediation (EKR) is performed for the cleanup of most toxic metals, an enhancement is needed. During the unenhanced EKR the reactions at the electrodes, probably water ... -
Leaching of LiCoO2 using H2O2 as reductant
(2020-09-29)The growing use of Lithium-Ion batteries (LIBs) in the field of electric vehicles and renewable energy storage entails the production of toxic and environmental hazardous wastes. Furthermore, some components in these ... -
Life cycle assessment of aluminium cans and glass bottles
(2020-09-29)In this work, we present a simplified LCA on two commom products: an aluminum can and a glass bottle, both containing the same amoung of beverage (1/3 L of beer). The work presented here seeks to find out which option would ... -
Lignocellulosic derived activated carbon monoliths for emerging pollutants removal
(2019-10-31)Activated carbons are materials of great interest due to their versatility. Most of the activated carbons are prepared mainly in the form of powder, however, in certain processes, the powder-like morphology implies, high ... -

(2020-11-06)El objetivo del presente estudio ha consistido en intentar desarrollar un protocolo de síntesis de una hidrotalcita Mg-Al, como precursor de óxidos mixtos, pero modificada parcialmente por incorporación en la formulación ... -
Methanol dehydration on carbon-based acid catalysts
(XXXIV Reunión Bienal de la Real Sociedad Española de Química, 2013-09-16)Methanol dehydration to produce dimethyl ether (DME) is an interesting process for the chemical industry since DME is an important intermediate and a promising clean alternative fuel for diesel engines. Pure or modified ... -
Methanol dehydration over ZrO2 supported-activated carbons
(Asociación Nacional de Químicos de España, 2016)DME is playing an important role due to its potential use as an alternative fuel in diesel engines. The use of this fuel produces lower NOx emissions, and less engine noise compared to traditional diesel fuels. Moreover, ... -
Microalgae valorization by Catalytic Assisted Hydrothermal Liquefaction
(2023)The growing demand for energy resources and the need to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels in favour of more sustainable processes led to an interest in the production of biofuels trough different routes, such as ... -
A Model for Electrodialytic Treatment of Lithium-Ion Batteries
