Structure of a model TiO2 photocatalytic interface

The interaction of water with TiO2 is crucial to many of its practical applications, including photocatalytic water splitting. Following the first demonstration of this phenomenon 40 years ago there have been numerous studies of the rutile single-crystal T ...

Influence of slope-scale snowmelt on catchment response simulated with the Alpine3D model

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Ernesto Trujillo Gomez, Tristan Jonas Brauchli

Snow and hydrological modeling in alpine environments remains challenging because of the complexity of the processes affecting the mass and energy balance. This study examines the influence of snowmelt on the hydrological response of a high-alpine catchmen ...

Towards an Integrated Sustainability Assessment of Biorefineries

Edgard Gnansounou, Daniel Tuazon

The sustainability of biofuel operations encompasses several issues which are key to promoting uptake in a global environment. However, much of the analysis of biofuel production tends to be dominated by life cycle assessment (LCA) for assessing environmen ...

Biosurfactant production through Bacillus sp MTCC 5877 and its multifarious applications in food industry

In this study Bacillus sp. MTCC5877 was explored for the production of biosurfactant (BSs) and various carbon sources 1% (w/v), 0.5% (w/v) nitrogen sources were tested at different pH, and temperature. Yield was measured in terms of Emulsification index (E ...

Open design of a fixed probe for water quality monitoring in rivers and lakes

Nils Pascal Bonfils

This bachelor project work aims to set up a prototype measurement station in the Sorge (a small river near the EPFL) to collect some data about the water and the environmental conditions. And also make the work reproducible so that someone, somewhere else ...

A new robust oxygen-temperature sensor for aquatic eddy covariance measurements

Alfred Johny Wüest, Hua Li

The fragility of thin Clark-type glass microelectrodes used in aquatic eddy covariance measurements of benthic oxygen fluxes is a challenge when using this powerful technique. This study presents a new fast-responding dual oxygen-temperature sensor for edd ...

Synthesis of non‒isothermal interplant water networks

François Maréchal, Maziar Kermani

This paper addresses the synthesis problem of non-isothermal interplant water networks by using a mathematical programming approach based on superstructure optimisation. A recently proposed compact superstructure (Ibrić et al., 2015) was used and the mixed ...

Levels of 48 pesticides in vegetables and water and evaluation of health risk resulting from dietary intake in gardening areas in Burkina Faso

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Edouard René Gilbert Lehmann

Exceedance of MRLs might induce a risk for the consumers and limits the opportunities of exportation for a sector identified by the authorities as having a great potential for the fight against poverty. In the same way, levels of some water samples exceed ...

Increasing the stability of nanofluids with cavitating flows in micro orifices

Yusuf Leblebici, Morteza Ghorbani

One of the most critical challenges for nanofluids in practical applications is related to their stability and reusability since a gradual agglomeration of nanoparticles in nanofluids occurs with time and is accelerated by heating. In this study, we propos ...
