1. Exergy and emergy: complementary tools for assessing the environmental sustainability use of biosolids generated in wastewater-treatment plant for energy-production
Taking advantage of the energy contained in the biosolids generated in a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) is one of the processes of greatest interest due to the opportunity to obtain an energy resources from a waste. The aim of this research was to analyze the environmental sustainability use of biosolids generated in a wastewater-treatment plant for energ

2. New treatments for rare bone diseases: hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia
Abstract Phosphorus is one of the most abundant minerals in the human body; it is required to maintain bone integrity and mineralization, in addition to other biological processes. Phosphorus is regulated by parathyroid hormone, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) in a complex set of processes that occur in the gu

3. Additive Manufacturing towards the Fabrication of Greener Electrochemical Sensors for Antioxidants
Additive manufacturing is an emerging tool that has contributed to the sustainable fabrication of devices in several areas based on the concept of “zero waste”. Considering extrusion-based manufacturing (or 3D printing), polylactic acid (PLA) has been highlighted due to its biodegradability, obtention from renewable sources, and compatibility for 3D prin

4. Recent dengue virus infection: epidemiological survey on risk factors associated with infection in a medium-sized city in Mato Grosso
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Dengue is considered to be the most important arbovirus worldwide, with important complications that increase its lethality. In Brazil, an endemic country, the disease reaches significant incidence levels, with occurrences of serious cases and high costs of hospitalizations for its treatment. OBJECTIVE: To analyze risk factors among in

5. Agroindustry Residues as a Source for Cellulose Nanofibers Production
Our study was motivated by the large amount of crop residues produced in Brazil, which represent underutilized waste biomass and a serious threat to the environment because of the landfilling. For example, even though the corn crop is not popular in Brazil, it is produced in the area of around 18-20 million hectares with an average production of 5-6 t ha-1.

6. Yellow Mombin (Spondias mombin L.) Seeds from Agro-Industrial Waste as a Novel Adsorbent for Removal of Hexavalent Chromium from Aqueous Solutions
The objective of this study was to develop a low-cost and eco-friendly adsorbent from agro-industrial waste for the removal of hexavalent chromium in the aqueous medium. The adsorbent (BMC) produced from yellow mombin (Spondias mombin L.) seeds was characterized by the determination of the chemical composition, thermal analysis (thermogravimetric (TG) analys

7. Using static, kinetic and metal mobility procedures to evaluate possibilities of coal waste land disposal at Moatize Mine, Mozambique
Abstract Coal mine waste rocks produced during mining and beneficiation can affect the environment due to land degradation and acid mine drainage generation. However, proper characterization and treatment of mineral processing wastes creates options for safe disposal, enhancing the environmental performance. The aim of this study was to use static and kineti

8. COMPOSTING PROCESS IN THE PRODUCTION OF LETTUCE SEEDLING SUBSTRATES: EFFECT OF COVERING AND TURNING FREQUENCY
ABSTRACT The composting of waste from a broiler chicken production chain (BCPC) promotes the mitigation of environmental impacts and allows the commercialization of compost as an agricultural input. Both the characteristics and the potential for use of the final compost depends on the operational conditions during composting. The objective of this study was

10. PROCESSING OF A METAL CONCENTRATE FROM GROUND WASTE PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS IN ACIDIC MEDIA USING HYDROGEN PEROXIDE AS OXIDANT
The recovery of precious and base metals of a metal concentrate from ground waste printed circuit boards (PCBs) is described in detail. Samples were treated with NaOHaq. to remove the soldering mask. Experiments were performed in acidic medium (HF, H2SO4, CH3COOH or H3PO4) using H2O2 as oxidant. Base metals were leached in high yields (>99 wt.%) at ~40 ºC a

11. Integrated use of sewage sludge and basalt mine waste as soil substitute for environmental restoration
Abstract If not managed properly, mining waste can be detrimental to the environment. In addition, sewage treatment plants produce sludge, a biowaste rich in organic matter which is often sent to landfills. The present study evaluated the use of sewage sludge as an amendment for mine waste from a basalt quarry as an alternative to the use of soil from borrow

12. Structural and biological properties of protein hydrolysates from seafood by-products: a review focused on fishery effluents
Abstract Enormous amounts of by-products and waste are generated during the processing of seafood, sometimes representing about 65% of the raw material employed. Seafood by-products (SB) include solid waste such as skin, head, viscera, trimmings, and bones; however, liquid wastes (effluents) derived from operations such as washing, thawing, cooking and the p
