application of a chemical-based process aiming to decrease the high organic carbon …

Stability and maturity are important criteria to guarantee the quality of a compost that is
applied to agriculture or used as amendment in degraded soils. Although different …

In the present study, physico-chemical characteristics, heavy metals content, odour
emissions, microbial enumeration and enzymatic activities were analysed during industrial …

The removal of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and total polyphenols (TPh) from agro-
industrial wastewater was evaluated via the application of coagulation–flocculation …

The release of winery wastewater (WW) into the environment, without proper treatment, can
cause severe problems to freshwater quality and natural fauna and flora. Therefore, in this …

Three composts were used as plant growing media: green and pruning wastes compost
