Continuous copper biosorption in fixed-bed column by olive stone and pinion shell was studied. The effect of three operational parameters was analyzed: feed flow rate (2-6 ml/min), inlet copper concentration (40-100 mg/L) and bed-height (4.4-13.4 cm). Artificial Neural-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) was used in order to optimize the percentage of copper removal and the retention capacity in the column. The highest percentage of copper retained was achieved at 2 ml/min, 40 mg/L and 4.4 cm. However, the optimum biosorption capacity was obtained at 6 ml/min, 100 mg/L and 13.4 cm. Finally, breakthrough curves were simulated with mathematical traditional models and ANFIS model. The calculated results obtained with each model were compared with experimental data. The best results were given by ANFIS modelling that predicted copper biosorption with high accuracy. Breakthrough curves surfaces, which enable the visualization of the behavior of the system in different process conditions, were represented.

Enhanced boron modified graphitic carbon nitride for the selective photocatalytic production of benzaldehyde

M. Alejandra Quintana, Rafael R. Solis, M. Angeles Martin-Lara, Gabriel Blazquez, F. Monica Calero, Mario J. Munoz-Batisa

Summary: This study proposes the use of boron to modify the structure of graphitic carbon nitride, enhancing its photocatalytic activity. The choice of boron precursor affects the positions at which boron atoms replace carbon and nitrogen in the structure, leading to significant effects on photocatalytic activity. Specifically, the sample modified with NaBH4 shows the highest oxidation rate and selectivity.

Thermal and catalytic pyrolysis of a real mixture of post-consumer plastic waste: An analysis of the gasoline-range product

Marco F. Paucar-Sanchez, Monica Calero, Gabriel Blazquez, Rafael R. Solis, Mario J. Munoz-Batista, M. Angeles Martin-Lara

Summary: This study investigates the thermal and catalytic pyrolysis of different types of plastic waste and a real mixture. The yields of gas, liquid, and solid products vary significantly depending on the polymer type. Expanded polystyrene produces the highest gas yield, high-impact polystyrene yields the most oil, and polypropylene film releases the most char. High-impact polystyrene also produces the highest yield of gasoline-range product, mainly composed of aromatics compounds.

Microplastics in Sediments from a Sandy Beach in Costa Nova (Aveiro, Portugal)

Veronica Godoy, Joana Correia Prata, Antonio Perez, Joao Pinto da Costa, Teresa Rocha-Santos, Armando C. Duarte

Summary: The main objective of this study was to estimate the microplastic pollution on Costa Nova sandy beach in Portugal using longitudinal and cross-sectional transects. The results showed low variability in data, with median concentrations ranging from 142 to 356 p/kg d.w. in cross-sectional transects, and from 211 to 270 p/kg d.w. in longitudinal transects. Microspheres were the predominant morphology, accounting for over 90% of all samples, and the most abundant microplastics were <200 μm in size. Despite moderate-low tourist activity, microplastic contamination was higher in Costa Nova compared to other Portuguese beaches, possibly due to nearby port activities and ocean currents. However, this study highlights the disparity in data caused by different methodologies used in analyzing similar areas.

Management of Used COVID-19 Personal Protective Equipment: A Bibliometric Analysis and Literature Review

Juan Jesus de la Torre Bayo, Maria Angeles Martin-Lara, Monica Calero Hoces, Pedro Miguel Sanchez Castillo, Hector J. Pula, Montserrat Zamorano

Summary: Using science mapping, we analyzed the increasing number of scientific documents on the negative environmental impacts of PPE waste, particularly face masks, used for reducing SARS-CoV-2 transmission. India, China, and Canada emerged as leaders in this research field, focusing on environmental issues and engineering solutions. Our analysis highlighted the significant negative effects of PPE waste on aquatic ecosystems, greenhouse gas emissions, and wildlife. To address these impacts, innovative ecodesign strategies for green production, reuse, and recycling, as well as collaboration with the public to reduce waste at its source, are essential. Implementing a collective, extended producer responsibility system for PPE can ensure sustainable production and consumption, contributing to the achievement of sustainable development goals.

Summary: This research aims to develop a new strategy to convert wasted COVID-19 masks into useful products through chemical recycling by pyrolysis. The results showed that pyrolysis at different temperatures yielded valuable solid (biochar), liquid (biooil), and syngas products. By using a two-stage pyrolysis catalytic reactor with sepiolite as a catalyst, the final yield of syngas product increased and the composition of biooils changed. The study also examined the effect of sepiolite regeneration on consecutive pyrolysis tests.

Ana Ligero, Monica Calero, M. Angeles Martin-Lara, Gabriel Blazquez, Rafael R. Solis, Antonio Perez

Summary: The potential use of activated char obtained from the pyrolysis of non-recyclable plastics for CO2 adsorption in fixed-bed columns was investigated. The plastic waste collected from a municipal solid treatment plant was pyrolyzed to produce char residue, which was then activated to create a porous carbonaceous material. Continuous column tests demonstrated successful fitting of breakthrough curves to the dose-response model. The effects of adsorption temperature, CO2 concentration, and bed length on process efficiency were evaluated using surface response methodology.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of the non-antibiotic pharmaceutical carbamazepine on antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) during anaerobic digestion. The results showed that carbamazepine induced the enrichment of ARGs and increased the abundance of bacteria carrying these genes. It also facilitated microbial aggregation and intercellular communication, leading to an increased frequency of ARGs transmission. Moreover, carbamazepine promoted the acquisition of ARGs by pathogens and elevated their overall abundance.

Machine learning-based prediction of methane production from lignocellulosic wastes

Chao Song, Fanfan Cai, Shuang Yang, Ligong Wang, Guangqing Liu, Chang Chen

Summary: This paper developed a machine learning model to predict the biochemical methane potential during anaerobic digestion. Model analysis identified lignin content, organic loading, and nitrogen content as key attributes for methane production prediction. For feedstocks with high cellulose content, early methane production is lower but can be improved by prolonging digestion time. Moreover, lignin content exceeding a certain value significantly inhibits methane production.
