Sustainable development goals in public administrations: Enabling conditions in local governments
(Sage Publications, 2023-01-04)
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a challenge that many public administrations face in promoting sustainable growth. Local governments, as the governmental tier closest to citizens, should deliberate upon strategies ...
Metal-free initiators pave the way for chemically recyclable polymers with industrially relevant properties
(Nature, 2023)
To solve the environmental disaster that is generated by legacy plastics accumulation, researchers are looking to design plastics
with enhanced end-of-life options, but many circular plastics do not meet industrial ...
Treated and highly diluted, but wastewater still impacts diversity and energy fluxes of freshwater food webs
(Elsevier, 2023-11)
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have greatly improved water quality globally. However, treated effluents still contain a complex cocktail of pollutants whose environmental effects might go unnoticed, masked by additional ...
Cellular patterns and dry convection in textured dust storms at the edge of Mars North Polar Cap
(Elsevier, 2022-11)
We present a study of textured local dust storms that develop at the northern polar cap boundary on Mars springtime. We have used images obtained with VMC and HRSC cameras onboard Mars Express and MARCI on MRO to analyze ...
Cracking of plastic pyrolysis oil over FCC equilibrium catalysts to produce fuels: Kinetic modeling
(Elsevier, 2022-05)
The kinetics of the catalytic cracking of plastic pyrolysis oil (PPO) over three FCC (fluid catalytic cracking) equilibrium commercial catalysts has been modeled. The PPO comes from the fast pyrolysis of high-density ...
Short-term response of macroalgal communities to ocean warming in the Southern Bay of Biscay
(Elsevier, 2023-09)
Climate change is causing significant shifts in biological communities worldwide, including the degradation of marine communities. Previous research has predicted that southern Bay of Biscay canopy-forming subtidal macroalgal ...
Reviewing experimental studies on sensible thermal energy storage in cementitious composites: report of the RILEM TC 299-TES
(Springer, 2024-05-14)
Thermal energy storage (TES) systems have been a subject of growing interest due to their potential to address the challenges of intermittent renewable energy sources. In this context, cementitious materials are emerging ...
Intensifying gasoline production in the hydrocracking of pre-hydrotreated light cycle oil by means of Pt and Pd supported on a spent FCC catalyst
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
Motivated by the necessity of intensifying the valorization of secondary refinery streams and of extending the life cycle of the catalysts, this study aims to obtain high quality gasoline in the hydrocracking of a ...
High frequency of mitochondrial haplogroups H and H2 in medieval individuals from the Cathedral of Santa María (Basque Country). Their contribution to the study of inflammatory arthropathies
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
The haplogroup H has been associated with high mitochondrial energy efficiency, which may have favoured survival and reproduction under adverse environmental conditions. On the other hand, it enhances the production of ...
Characterisation of deposited dust particles on Mars insight lander Instrument Context Camera (ICC) lens
(Elsevier, 2023-03)
The ubiquitous dust in the Martian environment plays a key role in its weather and climate: it must be taken into account in the interpretation of remote sensing data and observations, and could pose a potential risk to ...
