Conference Paper
Polymers are currently used as a major raw material in industry, but they are quickly discharged into the environment and cause significant pollution. To tackle this environmental pollution problem, particular attention is being funded to biodegradable polymers, namely polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) produced by microorganisms. This research detects P...

Circular bio-economy (CBE) is characterized by complex material exchanges among farms, processors, consumers, technology clusters and waste managers involved in fertilization, food, feed, bio-energy, and bio-based chemicals production. For this purpose, Industrial Ecology (IE) with its tools can assist better coordination of material exchanges at t...
Conference Paper
Pastaraisiais metais biologiškai skaidžios atliekos įgauna vis didesnę reikšmę, nes yra vis plačiau naudojamos kaip tvari alternatyva naftos pagrindo produktams ir didelės vertės bioproduktams gaminti. Didžioji dalis pakopinių bioatliekų perdirbimo gamyklų (biorefineries) kaip žaliavą naudoja homogeninius srautus iš žemės ūkio, maisto perdirbimo įm...

Vital research has been carried out on the sustainable organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) stream management in the last five years. In addition to the traditional approach to reducing its environmental side effects, considering OFMSW as a feedstock to produce bioproducts, such as enzymes, bioplastics, biopesticides, and other high-va...

MBT plants transformation to biorefineries. Profit from OFMSW. Innovation. We need more discussions.
Conference Paper
Tarptautinis, taip pat ir Lietuvos, atliekų tvarkymo sektorius susiduria su naujais iššūkiais, spręsdamas politinius tvaraus atliekų tvarkymo klausimus, skatindamas naujų atliekų apdorojimo technologijų plėtrą ir ruošdamas didelio masto pertvarką atliekų sektoriuje. Atliekų tvarkymo taisyklėse numatyta, kad nuo 2019 m. visi miestai, turintys daugia...

Production volumes are increasing by growing economy and consumption processes. Industry and other economic activities generate municipal solid waste stream. With the growth of the industry, economy and pace of consumption, major key is to avoid municipal solid waste (MSW) generation.The majority of developing countries are seeking to alter the pre...

Siekiant stabilaus agrosistemos funkcionavimo, šiuolaikinio pasaulio svarbiausiu tikslu tampa racionali tręšimo sistema, kurį sugebėtų išlaikyti pagrindinių mitybos elementų tvarumą. Daugelyje Europos šalių vystoma integruota arba tausojamoji žemdirbystės sistema, kurios pagrindą sudaro bioįvairovės didinimas sudarant ilgesnes sėjomainos rotacijas,...

Composting is generally considered as a cost effective waste management option for stabilising waste and produce a soil improver/organic fertilizer. Passive aerated open windrows is a typical low cost option feasible in in São Tomé and Principe (pop. 197 900), a small island state in West Africa. Here the European Union, in partnership with Institu...
