The objective of this study was to examine the catalytic pyrolysis process of three distinct types of biomasses: baru endocarp (ENB), macaúba endocarp (ENM), and macaúba epicarp (EPM). This was performed with the aim of optimizing the production of hydrocarbons and other volatile compounds of interest through the use of different catalysts. The cat...

This study investigated the structural and environmental recovery of weathered hydrocarbon-contaminated soils using low-carbon solutions and aimed to ascertain the suitability of the remediated soils for engineering purposes. 25% (w/w) of ground ripe (RPP) and unripe (UPP) waste plantain peels were each added to 1 kg weathered hydrocarbon-contamina...

This study proposes a simplified unit that can be employed in an industrial facility for the utilization of its own abundant plastic waste, primarily from discarded packaging, to achieve full or partial energy autonomy. By converting this waste into synthetic pyrolysis oil equivalent to 91,500 L, the industry can power a combined heat and power gen...

Pollution from crude oil and its derivatives poses a serious threat to human health and ecosystems, with accidental spills causing substantial damage. Biodegradation, using microorganisms to break down these contaminants, presents a promising and cost-effective solution. Exploring and utilizing new bacterial strains from underexplored habitats coul...

Extensional tectonics along NE-trending faults, coupled with diapirism, created paleo-highs and subsiding basins, providing the structural framework for subsequent mineralization processes. The preservation of organic matter within the Fahdene and Bahloul Cretaceous formations during the Anoxic Oceanic Events (AOE-1 and AOQ-2) facilitated the extra...

Pollution is the biggest environmental and health threat in the world. Conventional treatments of polluted habitats require the removal of pollutants contaminating the environment, but removal methods are costly and involve high power consumption. This research aims to investigate the potential for bioremediation and proposes an alternative source ...

In the oil industry, there is a gap between the goals of sustainable development, the implementation of oil projects and its specific consequences. Oil projects are implemented in isolation from other variables, have an insufficiently targeted impact on the territory and often have a negative impact on the environment. The purpose of the study is t...

Bridged or caged polycyclic hydrocarbons with well-defined exit vectors are valuable scaffolds for applications in medicinal chemistry. The development of synthetic methods for accessing new 3D building blocks and saturated isosteres of aromatic rings based on these motifs is a topic of significant current interest in organic chemistry. Cubane has ...

The use of depressant additives is the most effective and cost-effective way to improve the low-temperature properties of diesel fuels, like the cloud point, cold filter plugging point and pour point. However, the effectiveness of depressant additives depends on the composition of the diesel fuel and the content of certain groups of hydrocarbons in...

During the last few decades, water pollution has become a growing concern at international level. To date, only a few Candida parapsilosis strains were successfully used in environmental remediation. In the present article, the strain C. parapsilosis CMGB-YT was studied for its ability to assimilate hydrophobic substrates and to produce biosurfacta...
