Project Details
Description
We are studying the thermochemical processes of pyrolysis and hydrothermal carbonisation (HTC); we want to investigate whether phosphorus can be recovered by producing pyrochars and hydrochars from yearly willows harvested in constructed wetlands after treating wastewater.
We are also investigating the characterisation and obtention of activated carbons ( produced with physical and chemical methods to assess their potential to treat micropollutants.
