Competitive photo-degradation performance of ZnO modified bentonite clay in water containing both organic and inorganic contaminantsSustainable Environment Research - Tập 29 - Trang 1-12 - 2019
Suchithra Padmajan Sasikala, T. A. Nibila, Kunnathuparambil Babu Babitha, Abdul Azeez Peer Mohamed, Ananthakumar Solaiappan
This study reports the activity difference of zinc oxide modified bentonite clay (Photo-Zn-Bent) photocatalyst when in contact with different environmentally toxic pollutants in a single component and bi-component pollutant systems. The layered structure of purified and swollen nano-bentonite clay (Bent) has tunable interlayer spacing to grow zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles, thereby integrating the...... hiện toàn bộ
Identifying groundwater recharge zones using remote sensing & GIS techniques in Amaravathi aquifer system, Tamil Nadu, South IndiaSustainable Environment Research - Tập 29 - Trang 1-9 - 2019
Mohanavelu Senthilkumar, Devadasan Gnanasundar, Rethinam Arumugam
In order to increase the sustainability of the wells and arrest the declining groundwater level trends in Amaravathi aquifer system, southern India, remote sensing and geographic information system (GIS) approach was attempted to identify favourable regions for construction of artificial recharge structures. GIS overlay analysis was carried out wherein 8 layers viz. geology, geomorphology, slope, ...... hiện toàn bộ
Implementing circular economy concept by converting cassava pulp and wastewater to biogas for sustainable production in starch industrySustainable Environment Research - Tập 31 - Trang 1-12 - 2021
Ruenrom Lerdlattaporn, Chantaraporn Phalakornkule, Sivalee Trakulvichean, Warinthorn Songkasiri
Adoption of the circular economy concept to utilize wastes and by-products from the cassava starch industry for biogas production has been considered a viable option. The annual generation of wastewater and cassava pulp in Thailand is reported to be approximately 21 million m3 and 9.5 Mt, respectively. This research therefore aimed to analyze the key drivers and challenges in implementing the circ...... hiện toàn bộ
Stability evaluation of a grid-tied hybrid wind/PV farm joined with a hybrid energy-storage systemSustainable Environment Research - - 2023

This paper presents the stability-evaluation outcomes of a multimachine power system (MMPS) connected with a large-scale hybrid wind farm (WF) and photovoltaic (PV) farm or hybrid wind/PV farm (HWPF) and a hybrid energy-storage system (HESS) consisting of a vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) and a supercapacitor (SC). A probability scheme is used to determine the rated power of the proposed HESS, ...... hiện toàn bộ
Techno-economic analysis and environmental impact of biovalorization of agro-industrial wastes for biodiesel feedstocks by oleaginous yeastsSustainable Environment Research - Tập 30 - Trang 1-13 - 2020
Saithip Sae-ngae, Benjamas Cheirsilp, Yasmi Louhasakul, Thunwadee Tachapattaworakul Suksaroj, Punyanich Intharapat
Different types of agro-industrial wastes including lignocellulosic wastes, carbohydrate and protein-rich wastes, syrup wastes and glycerol wastes were explored as biodiesel feedstocks. This strategy not only can partially replace fossil fuel but also simultaneously decrease the environmental impact. This is the first report on the techno-economic analysis and CO2 emissions of biovalorization of t...... hiện toàn bộ
Reduction of the toxin microcystin-LR with different types of sedimentsSustainable Environment Research - Tập 33 - Trang 1-10 - 2023
Natalia Herrera, Maria Teresa Florez, Fernando Echeverri
Microcystis aeruginosa blooms in water bodies, evidencing a high risk of exposure to human health due to the release of toxins, which affects water quality. Implementing physical, chemical, and microbial control methods requires an integrated understanding of cyanotoxin dynamics, especially their relationship with sediments. Consequently, sediment obtained from three stations of the Riogrande II r...... hiện toàn bộ
