Rapid photocatalytic determination of soil organic carbon content: development and validation of protocols

Global warming is a well-known global phenomenon that has been in the headlines for the past few decades. Greenhouse gases (Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Carbon Monoxide, etc.) are the major contributors to global warming and several governments have been working towards limiting such emissions by introducing emission guidelines. Carbon Dioxide is the gas of interest in […]

Selective metal separation from steel slags and municipal solid waste incinerator ash (MSWIA) by intensified solvent extraction and precipitation

This project tackles heavy metals removal from two end-of-life streams, notably steel slags (SS) and municipal solid waste (MSW). These slags could be valorized and used in cement and concrete materials after eliminating heavy metals and other toxic components. Intensified cost-effective processes have the potential to be green alternatives for extracting and precipitating heavy metals […]
