Green Research for Environmental and Agricultural Technologies (GREAT)
Theme 1: Circular Technologies for Water and Resource Recovery
- Electrodialysis-Based Separation for Water and Resource Recovery.
- Enhanced Organic Matter Recovery from Piggery Wastewater.
- Synthesis of Ionically Conductive Materials for Electrochemical Systems.
Theme 2: Biomass Valorization Technologies
- Conversion of Organic Biowastes to Biochemicals (or Bioenergy) using Electro-Anaerobic Digestion.
- Utilization of Anaerobic Digestate for Recovering High Value-Added Products, such as Humus and Nutrients.
- Electrochemical pH Swing for CO2 Capture and Utilization (e.g., Biogas Upgrading).
Theme 3: Sustainable Agro-Soil-Water Environment and Management
- Monitoring and Tracing of Heavy Metals in Irrigation Water.
- Reservoir Water Quality Management in the Face of Global Climate Heating.
- Monitoring and Assessment of Emerging Compounds (such as microplastics) in Watershed and Soil Systems.
Theme 4: Life-Cycle Perspective for Carbon-Nutrient Cycles
- Ecosystem Services from a Life-Cycle Perspective (LCA-ES) to Optimizing Food-Energy-Water Nexus.
- Assessment of Reactive Nitrogen (e.g., ammonia, nitrous oxide) Emissions from soils.
- Negative Technologies such as Soil Carbon Sinks, Enhanced Weathering Technologies (Carbon Dioxide Mineralization).
