The objective of this study was to elucidate the effect adding acid and alkali hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) two waste biomass feedstocks: manure digestate carbohydrate-rich food waste. HTL reactions were conducted at 300 °C for 60 min, with without addition or base. We measured quantity characterized quality three main products: oil, aqueous hydro-char. For both feedstocks, carbon recovery distributions had wide ranges among (1) biocrude oil (26–61 wt %), (2) product (9–49 %) (3)...
Recovery of nutrients, such as ammonia, from wastewater offers an attractive approach to increase the overall sustainability waste management practices.
Mixed polymer plastics cannot undergo mechanical recycling, resulting in heterogeneous low-quality recycled products. Multilayered mulch film, used agriculture, is an example of mixed polymeric product, as it usually contains a gas barrier layer, which different composition compared to the outer layers. Thus, multilayered films are considered nonrecyclable and landfilled. Hydrothermal processing (HTP) alternative solution for plastic waste management. HTP here combined separation treatment...
