INNOVAZIONE DEI MATERIALI NATURALI: TERRA E NANOTUBI DI ARGILLA PER UNA SFIDA SOSTENIBILE

2019

All’interno del dibattito culturale che vede la questione ambientale come prioritaria e con riferimento a studi e ricerche che negli ultimi anni hanno promosso materiali compositi a base di terra cruda, gli Autori, consapevoli della necessità che il rapporto fra Progetto e Materia debba assumere una nuova centralità supportato dalle specificità della Tecnologia dell’Architettura, illustrano le risultanze di una sperimentazione che ha l’obiettivo di migliorare le prestazioni della terra cruda con l’apporto delle nanotecnologie, sviluppando un ‘nuovo materiale’ con una ridotta embodied energy e una ridotta quantità di emissioni di CO2 in atmosfera.

Within the cultural debate that considers the environmental issue as a priority and with reference to the studies and researches that over the last years have supported compound materials containing rammed earth the Authors aware of the need of giving to the relationship of Project and Matter a key role supported by the characteristics of Architectural Technology show the results of an experimentation that aims to improve the performance of rammed earth with the contribution of nanotechnologies developing a ‘new material’ with a reduced embodied energy and a reduced amount of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.Settore ICAR/12 - Tecnologia Dell'Architettura

Differential Responses of Nitrate Reducer Community Size, Structure, and Activity to Tillage Systems

2009

ABSTRACT The main objective of this study was to determine how the size, structure, and activity of the nitrate reducer community were affected by adoption of a conservative tillage system as an alternative to conventional tillage. The experimental field, established in Madagascar in 1991, consists of plots subjected to conventional tillage or direct-seeding mulch-based cropping systems (DM), both amended with three different fertilization regimes. Comparisons of size, structure, and activity of the nitrate reducer community in samples collected from the top layer in 2005 and 2006 revealed that all characteristics of this functional community were affected by the tillage system, with increa…

Carbon storage in soils by ancient and modern wheat varieties

2022

Les émissions anthropiques de gaz à effet de serre sont le principal moteur du changement climatique. Le plan Climat, issu de la COP 21 tenue à Paris en 2015, vise à atteindre la neutralité carbone à l'horizon 2050. Pour atteindre cette neutralité carbone, les gaz à effet de serre doivent d'abord être stabilisés, puis fortement réduits au cours du siècle prochain. Dans cette dynamique, l'initiative « 4 pour 1000 » fixe comme objectif d'atteindre un taux de croissance annuel du stock de carbone dans les sols de 0,4% par an. Ce stockage additionnel devrait compenser les émissions de CO2 dans l'atmosphère liée aux activités humaines. Les sols agricoles sont identifiés comme un compartiment de …

Detección precoz de la hipoacusia, influencia en el diagnóstico y en el tratamiento temprano

2021

Detección precoz de la hipoacusia, influencia en el diagnóstico y en el tratamiento temprano. INTRODUCCIÓN: La hipoacusia es el déficit sensorial mas frecuente en los países desarrollados. La prevalencia de cualquier grado de hipoacusia es de un 2-3 % de la población infantil y el 80% de las mismas, está presente al nacimiento. Los programa de screening auditivo (SA) se justifican por la alta incidencia de la hipoacusia y sus consecuencias devastadoras para el lenguaje cuando no se detecta precozmente. OBJETIVO: Establecer el número de niños diagnosticados de hipoacusia congénita gracias al SA en el hospital Universitario La Fe. Analizamos las técnicas utilizadas en el cribado, los parámetr…

Estimation of pollutant emissions from road traffic by image processing techniques. A case study in a suburban area

2013

This paper suggests a methodology based on the image processing technique able to automatically calculate the vehicle traffic and its components (light vehicles, heavy vehicles and motorcycles). The method also allows to evaluate instant vehicle speeds and, where necessary, to rebuild vehicle trajectories. Traffic data obtained through the procedure described below (capacities and speeds) can be also usefully applied to estimate pollutant emissions from vehicle traffic per year; therefore, the suggested method employs the algorithms defined with CORINAIR procedures, implemented in Copert 4 software. In order to evaluate how effective is the methodology, an experiment has been carried out in…

Mount Etna volcanic emissions signature on the chemical composition of bulk atmospheric deposition in Sicily, Italy.

2022

Mt. Etna, on the eastern coast of Sicily (Italy), is one of the most active and most intensely monitored volcanoes on the Earth, widely recognized as a big source of volcanic gases, such as CO2, SO2, halogens, and many trace elements, including technological critical elements (TCEs), to the atmosphere on a regional and global scale. Mt. Etna emissions account for a significant percentage of the worldwide average volcanic budget and especially during eruptive periods, its products can be dispersed over great distances and they influence the chemical composition of the atmosphere of other continents too. The current knowledge about the geochemical cycle of TCEs is still scarce, nevertheless, …

Anaerobic biodegradation of solvents from the packaging industry: study and enhancement

2017

Con el desarrollo de la política ambiental de la Unión Europea, la calidad del aire en Europa ha mejorado considerablemente. No obstante, la contaminación atmosférica continúa siendo importante lo que hace necesario el desarrollo continuo de soluciones tecnológicas de depuración del aire para mitigar los problemas de calidad ambiental. Con objeto de preservar el medio ambiente y evitar problemas de salud pública, las emisiones industriales de disolventes están estrictamente reguladas por la normativa vigente en Europa, en el marco de la Directiva Europea de Emisiones Industriales (2010/75/EU). La industria del envase y embalaje es uno de los sectores más importantes en cuanto al uso de diso…

Impact of Manaus City on the Amazon Green Ocean atmosphere: Ozone production, precursor sensitivity and aerosol load

2010

As a contribution to the Large-Scale Biosphere-Atmosphere Experiment in Amazonia – Cooperative LBA Airborne Regional Experiment (LBA-CLAIRE-2001) field campaign in the heart of the Amazon Basin, we analyzed the temporal and spatial dynamics of the urban plume of Manaus City during the wet-to-dry season transition period in July 2001. During the flights, we performed vertical stacks of crosswind transects in the urban outflow downwind of Manaus City, measuring a comprehensive set of trace constituents including O3, NO, NO2, CO, VOC, CO2, and H2O. Aerosol loads were characterized by concentrations of total aerosol number (CN) and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), and by light scattering proper…
