The water sector is entering a period of uncertainty, as stressors such as climate change pose unknown risks to its infrastructure. Utilities need to build resilience to handle unpredictable changes, but the field of ...
La sang de porc és un subproducte comestible que es genera als escorxadors industrials durant el procés d'obtenció de la canal. Aquest subproducte es caracteritza per presentar una elevada càrrega contaminant i, degut a ...
A series of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) derived from the BP134 peptide (a member of the CECMEL11 library) exhibited potent bactericidal effect and low cytotoxicity, and were selected for expression in transgenic rice. ...
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is largely emitted in the ignition of fossil fuels for transport, electricity generation or other industrial processes. CO2 is an inorganic compound that exists naturally on Earth, but its concentration ...
The thesis deals with removal of organosilicon compounds in the energy recovery of biogas. Alternative adsorbents for the siloxane removal were studied, and the physical and chemical mechanisms involved in the siloxane ...
The selection of the most appropriate wastewater treatment involves a complex decision making process. For that reason, some tools have been developed in recent years in order to deal with this complexity, as Novedar_EDSS ...
La implantació de Sistemes de Suport a la presa de Decisions (SSD) en Estacions Depuradores d'Aigües Residuals Urbanes (EDAR) facilita l'aplicació de tècniques més eficients basades en el coneixement per a la gestió del ...
Brown spot of pear is a fungal disease caused by Stemphylium vesicarium. Currently, the disease control efficacy is limited, due to the characteristics of disease and the reduction of the allowed fungicides. Therefore, ...
ENG- Food security is critical for sustaining the growing global population, but it is increasingly threatened by plant diseases that lead to significant food losses. The frequency of emerging and reemerging plant disease ...
Increasing awareness on the limited nature of the raw materials for the production of inorganic fertilizer is pushing for a shift from removal to recovery of nutrients from waste streams. In municipal wastewater treatment ...
The research for new technologies able to determine quality parameters as well as study the effect of High Pressure Processing (HPP) on dry-cured ham is of scientific interest because the information obtained is useful for ...
The thesis studies the discursive construction of cognitive frames in the water sector in order to understand the dynamics of politicisation and depoliticisation in the water conflict in Barcelona between 2011 and ...
ENG- Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) play a crucial role in safeguarding public health by treating wastewater before discharge into the environment. However, conventional facilities consume substantial amounts of energy ...
ENG- Dry-cured ham is consumed all around the world and it is very appreciated by its organoleptic characteristics. Although it is a very typical product from the Mediterranean area, dry-cured ham production extends to ...
This thesis results from the collaborative projects between the LEQUIA-UdG group and Cespa (a company in charge of several landfill sites in Spain). The aim of the work was the development of a suitable alternative treatment ...
At present, agriculture is the human activity which requires more volume of water. Given the importance and scarcity of this resource, the efficient use of water has become a priority. On one hand, if possible, it is ...
ENG- Industrial thermal treatment of liquid foods is often carried out by tunnel pasteurization, or continuous-flow pasteurization by putting the food material in indirect contact with hot water or steam in a way that ...
Natural fibers have been used recently as reinforcement of polymer-matrix based composites. The present thesis examines the mechanical properties of high density polyethylene (HDPE) composite reinforced with sisal fiber, ...
En la presente tesis se han realizado estudios de eliminación de metales pesados y arsénico de aguas contaminadas mediante procesos de adsorción sobre materiales de bajo coste. Dichos materiales son, en todos los casos, ...
