This thesis aimed to explore the potential of Se/Zn-enriched bioproducts produced from wastewater treatment processes by eco-technologies (phytoextraction, bioreduction and microalgae-based systems) as ...
Oorthuis Gómez, Raül (Date of defense: 2022-07-19)
Slope mass-wasting (SMW) due to shallow landslides or debris flows is one of the most important erosional processes in many mountainous regions together with surficial erosion by rainfall runoff. These ...
Yang, Xuefei (Date of defense: 2021-07-06)
Textile wastewater often shows high color concentration, containing a large range of organic chemicals, with high chemical oxygen demand as well as hard-degradation materials. Therefore, understanding ...
Casas González, Guillermo (Date of defense: 2018-10-30)
In this work we study the numerical simulation of particle-laden fluids, with a focus on Newtonian fluids and spherical, rigid particles. We are thus dealing with a multi-phase (more precisely, a ...
Ruiz Sánchez, Josep (Date of defense: 2018-11-09)
The anaerobic digestion (AD) consists of a cascade of syntrophic interactions between several microbial groups that result in the breakdown of biodegradable organic matter in the absence of oxygen, ...
Corbella Vidal, Clara (Date of defense: 2017-11-10)
Horizontal Subsurface Flow Constructed Wetlands (HSSF CWs) are natural wastewater treatment systems showing a marked redox gradient between the surface of the system and the bottom zone of the treatment ...
Barrias, António (Date of defense: 2018-11-05)
In this doctoral thesis it is proposed to research and assess the performance of the use of distributed optical fiber sensors (DOFS), more specifically the case of the optical backscattered reflectometry ...
