THERMODYNAMIC PREDICTION FOR DEVELOPMENT OF NOVEL ENVIRONMENTAL BIOTECHNOLOGIES AND VALUABLE PRODUCTS FROM WASTE OBTAINING
Journal Title: Ecological Engineering and Environment Protection (EEEP) - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The aim of the work was to develop effective environmental biotechnologies enabling to stop pollution of environment with a wide range of toxicants and transform them into commercially valuable products. Using the method of thermodynamic prediction an algorithm to create new universal environmental biotechnologies was developed. Distinctive features of biotechnologies include: 1). fast and efficient disposal of a wide range of environmentally hazardous waste (decaying food and agricultural waste, synthetic organic compounds, and metal-containing waste water, etc.); 2). increase the efficiency of biotechnologies due to application of selected soil anaerobic microorganisms; 3). obtaining of a wide range of valuable products: gaseous fuels (hydrogen, methane), solid fuel (unfermented lignin and cellulose residues), concentrate of nonferrous metals (copper, chromium, etc.) and clean water; 4). ability to scale and replicate typical technologies of designated purpose. Obtained engineering and technological parameters of universal biotechnologies indicate the prospects of their large-scale industrial implementation.
