La Wagnerschule (Vienna 1894-1912): Wagner e la Moderne Architekture
2018
Otto Wagner, fra il 1894 e il 1912, mette in atto una riforma ‘verticistica’ di quel principio della riorganizzazione del visibile che è uno dei cardini della rivoluzione esteti- ca dell’Art Nouveau. A differenza delle altre compagini di protagonisti del Modernismo il nucleo di allievi della sua scuola (tra cui Hoffmann, Plečnik, Deininger, Schönthal, Hoppe, Fuchs), così come i suoi assistenti (fra cui primeggia J. M. Olbrich) e i fiancheggiatori esterni (valga per tutti il caso di M. Fabiani), pur non differenziandosi sul piano dell’orientamento interdisciplinare si distinguono, data la formazione, per una peculiare impronta accademica della loro preparazione ‘al moderno’ tale da consentir…
Palermo e la guerra. Narrazioni: dalle immagini alle proposte di rinnovamento urbano
2023
The images of the bombing in Palermo in May 1943 are still etched in the collective memory. Some of the lacerations caused by the bombs are still clearly visible in the historic city centre, which has been the subject, since the post-war period, of numerous proposals that have remained in the drawer, images of an ethical and civil responsibility that has remained unheard. Old images of war and maps of ideas intersect in a history only apparently concluded in which they become generators of meaning and also bearers of messages relating to a desire for renewal.
WASTE PLASTICS MANAGEMENT IN MUNICIPALITIES: LOGISTICS AND PROCESSES IN LOMBARDIA (NORTHERN ITALY)
2013
A partnership of 49 Municipalities lying in Lombardia (Northern Italy) and belonging to the District “Monza and Brianza” has entrusted the management of the Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) to two Public Companies: “C.E.M. Ambiente S.p.A.” - which owns and operates a transfer station and a multi-material centre - and “SERUSO S.p.A.”, whose single facility is set up and equipped for a high performance factory sorting of the dry fraction of the urban waste. The catchment area is populated by 448 000, living in an area of 366 km2. The management system starts with household sorting for multi-bin curbside collection; followed by hauling to selection and physical treatment facilities; and last, trans…
Towards a new protocol for field measurements of greenhouse gases from wastewater treatment plant
2016
Emissions into the atmosphere of greenhouse gases (GHGs), i.e., carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide from wastewater treatment plants are of increasing concern in the water industry. In order to produce useful and comparable information for monitoring, assessing and reporting GHG emissions from wastewater treatment plants, there is a crescent need for a general accepted methodology. This paper aims at proposing the first protocol for monitoring and accounting GHG emissions from wastewater treatment plants taking into account both direct and internal indirect emissions focusing on sections known to be major responsible of GHG emissions i.e. oxidation tanks and sludge digestion. The main…
Biopolymer Recovery from Aerobic Granular Sludge and Conventional Flocculent Sludge in Treating Industrial Wastewater: Preliminary Analysis of Differ…
2022
The recovery of biopolymers from sewage sludge could be a crucial step in implementing circular economy principles in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). In this frame, the present study was aimed at evaluating the simultaneous production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) obtainable from the treatment of agro-industrial wastewater. Two biological enrichment systems, aerobic granular sludge (AGS) and a conventional activated sludge operating as a sequencing batch reactor (SBR), were monitored for 204 and 186 days, respectively. The maximum biopolymers accumulation capacity was close to 0.60 mgPHA-EPS gVSS−1 in the AGS when operating at 3 kgCODm…

I mulini ad acqua: dalla conservazione statica alla pratica sistemica
2013
I mulini di Polizzi: dalla conservazione statica alla pratica sistemica. Il sistema tradizionale di molitura con macine azionate dall'energia idraulica, diffuso in tutto il Mediterraneo, è presente molti Comuni della provincia di Palermo, ed è rimasto in uso fino al secondo dopoguerra. Si tratta di strutture produttive a ruota orizzontale; In genere diversi mulini sorgono in successione lungo lo stesso corso d'acqua, costituendo così un sistema. Sono queste le caratteristiche peculiari della “flomaria molendinorum” nel territorio di Polizzi Generosa: una vera e propria scalinata di impianti idraulici ancora visibili nel paesaggio odierno, concentrazioni testimoniate fin dal XII secolo. All'…
Physical dispersion and disappearance of bacteria in the Golfo di Palermo: the results of two surveys.
2012
This paper reports on some results of two surveys at sea carried out in the surroundings of a urban wastewater discharge on the coast of the Golfo di Palermo, western Sicily (Italy). At the time of the surveys (year 2005) the stretch of water lying before the central part of the capital town received the untreated wastewater originating from about 200 000 inhabitants, which was discharged on-shore without any prior treatment by the free-surface outfall of “Porta Felice main sewer”. This outfall has crucial importance in the water quality; indeed, the Municipality is steadily implementing a plan featuring an intercepting main sewer along the coast and some pumping stations to connect all the…
Development of an immunochromatographic assay based on carbon nanoparticles for the determination of the phytoregulator forchlorfenuron
2013
Rapid analytical methods enabling the determination of diverse targets are essential in a number of research areas, from clinical diagnostics to feed and food quality and safety. Herein, the development of a quantitative immunochromatographic assay for the detection of the synthetic phytoregulator forchlorfenuron (CPPU) is described. The competitive lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) was based on the immobilization onto a nitrocellulose membrane of an ovalbumin-CPPU conjugate (test line) and on the use of an immunodetection ligand consisting of carbon nanoparticles labeled with an anti-CPPU monoclonal antibody through interaction with a secondary antibody. The presence of CPPU in horticultural…
