Experimental investigation of system performance for combined desalination processes with membrane capacitive deionisation (MCDI)
(Università della Calabria, 2021-10-31)The water supply in many coastal regions worldwide is affected by progressive salinization. Here, the use of desalination technologies is a viable solution for obtaining freshwater. In this thesis, two modular concepts ... -
Theoretical Models for Membrane Capacitive Deionization for the design of Modular Desalination Processes
(Università della Calabria, 2021-12-08)Due to climate change, water scarcity will be exacerbated around the globe. To increase the water availability in regions at risk, water desalination plants can be a solution. Especially in rural areas, energy e cient ... -
La circolarità nella prevenzione del rischio idropotabile in una rete di distribuzione idrica urbana
(Università della Calabria, 2021-05-03)La modellazione idraulica, nell'ambito della valutazione della qualità della risorsa idrica, ha sviluppato l'esigenza verso un inquadramento multicriteriale, legato all'analisi del rischio idropotabile. La necessità di ... -
Drinking water supply modelling for advanced metering Infrastructures
(Università della Calabria, 2021-09-27)L’evoluzione della società umana e dei processi produttivi sta accrescendo il fabbisogno idrico mondiale. La risorsa idrica è distribuita in maniera disomogenea e sta subendo una progressiva riduzione a causa dei cambiamenti ... -
Synthesis and characterization of nanomaterials: graphene, silicene and carbon nano- onions
(2017-10-20)The electronic structure of the graphene/Ni(111) system was investigated by means of electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS). A single layer of graphene has been obtained on Ni(111) by dissociation of ethylene. Angle-resolved ... -
Preparation and Characterisation of Photocatalysts for CO2 valorisation in Membrane Reactors
(2019-05-10)Carbon dioxide is a gas that is constantly exchanged among the atmosphere, oceans, and land surface due to its continuous production and absorption by many microorganisms, plants and animals. These processes tend to balance ... -
Innovative UV-LED polymerised bicontinuous microemulsion coating for membranes with special emphasis on MBRs
(2017-07-11)The main objective of this work is the preparation of polymerisable bicontinuous microemulsion (PBM) coatings applied onto commercial membranes for improving the anti-fouling properties and performance, in terms of water ... -
Dynamic operation and control of cell culture environments in bioreactors for bioartificial liver application
(2017-07-11)On the global scale, liver diseases are severe public health problems, with the incidences of end-stage liver disease (ESLD) rising annually. Isolated hepatocytes represent a good model of liver metabolism because they are ... -
