Abstract Increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) via inputs is a key strategy for increasing long‐term C storage and improving the climate change mitigation adaptation potential of agricultural systems. A trial in California's Mediterranean revealed impacts management on SOC maize‐tomato wheat–fallow cropping was measured at initiation experiment year 19, five depth increments down to 2 m, taking into account changes bulk density. Across entire m profile, systems did not with addition N...
Sustainable management of non-edible agricultural residues cashew nut production is a concern in Colombia. Therefore, this study aimed to the fatty acid content pyrolytic liquid obtained from shells (CNSs) Vichada region Transesterification was conducted obtain biodiesel at micro-scale as first approach for valorization route. Proximal analysis samples carried out using advanced analytical techniques (UHPLC-MS and CG-MS) whereas phenolic antioxidant activity were determined. The yield 69.15...
Abstract The Century Experiment at the Russell Ranch Sustainable Agriculture Facility University of California, Davis provides long‐term agroecological data from row crop systems in California's Central Valley starting 1993. was initially designed to study effects a gradient water and nitrogen availability on soil properties performance ten different cropping measure tradeoffs synergies between agricultural productivity sustainability. Currently include 11 systems–consisting four crops cover...
This study estimated the environmental impacts by life cycle assessment (LCA) of bioanodes fabricated from devilfish bone chars and their application in microbial fuel cells (MFC). Two types were obtained calcination using nitrogen (BCN) air (BCA) as purge gases. with BCN BCA applied independently MFC to produce bioenergy ibuprofen carbamazepine biodegradation. LCA was performed methodology ISO 14,040. 1 kg bioanode kWh produced established functional units, integrating a detailed inventory...
The objective of the study was to compare three cases biodiesel production from microalgae dried biomass applying Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) technique by means "cradle grave" concept, presenting preliminary results for environmental assessment emerging technologies in Colombia focused on oil extraction stage. evaluated processes correspond following cases: case 1 hexane-based (HE), 2 methanol/chloroform (MCE) and 3 ethanol/hexane (EHE). Operating conditions each method were adjusted with...
Oil hydrotreating units in refineries are aimed at reducing the sulfur content of fuels to accomplish standard par-ticular specifications. However, this process is currently one best available technologies produce biofuels from vegetable oil a refinery. Vegetable oils can be processed or co-processed these if several adaptations performed, so some properties could improved comparison with conventional fuel such as density and cetane number. This study highlights theoretical greenhouse gases...
Variable renewable technologies are characterized by a large degree of intermittency due to their natural variability, creating need for exploiting range sources. In this context, the use energy storage systems is often proposed. There different ways store and overproduced electricity from these technologies. This paper aims evaluate global warming emissions savings obtained storing surplus variable in Spanish market later using it end applications, both present day 2030 time horizon. First,...
Nowadays, establishing clean energy sources is an undeniable need for all territories to reconcile and competitiveness objectives with those of security sustainability. This article shows the main advantages implementing in long-term Chilean electrical network. The considered this work based on Renewable Energy (Conventional Non-Conventional) backup gas or nuclear. Thus, four scenarios are proposed were simulated year 2050, assumed decommissioning coal plants country. These contemplate a...
This study provides an in-depth assessment of the environmental performance five public schools in transition towards a low-carbon economy and more sustainable model society. Life cycle (LCA) methodology is used to conduct study. The school system includes several activities processes clustered three subsystems: management building, training learning (T&L) mobility transport (M&T). A detailed primary data inventory energy resources consumption was collected located Spain Portugal....
In this paper, the analysis of environmental impacts a biopolymer based on starch is presented.These were calculated from cradle to gate LCA (Life Cycle Assessment), UNEEN ISO 14040: 2006 and 14044, using as functional unit 1 kg produced biomaterial.The impact categories analyzed global warming, ozone depletion, acidification eutrophication.The results indicate that electricity causes highest in warming depletion categories, but compared synthetic polymers, emissions are low.Finally, case...
