Nanocellulose-Based Inks—Effect of Alginate Content on the Water Absorption of 3D Printed Constructs
(MDPI, 2019)
2,2,6,6-tetramethylpyperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) were used as ink for three-dimensional (3D) printing of porous structures with potential as wound dressings. Alginate (10, 20, 30 and 40 ...
Novel Applications of Microbial Fuel Cells in Sensors and Biosensors
(MDPI, 2018-07-20)
A microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a type of bio-electrochemical system with novel features, such as electricity generation, wastewater treatment, and biosensor applications. In recent years, progressive trends in MFC research ...
Mechanochemical Synthesis of TiO2 Nanocomposites as Photocatalysts for Benzyl Alcohol Photo-Oxidation
(MDPI, 2016)
TiO2 (anatase phase) has excellent photocatalytic performance and different methods
have been reported to overcome its main limitation of high band gap energy. In this work,
TiO2-magnetically-separable nanocomposites ...
New Omnidirectional Sensor Based on Open-Source Software and Hardware for Tracking and Backtracking of Dual-Axis Solar Trackers in Photovoltaic Plants
(MDPI, 2021)
In this work, an omnidirectional sensor that enables identification of the direction of the celestial sphere with maximum solar irradiance is presented. The sensor, based on instantaneous measurements, functions as a ...
Analysis of the Influence of Terrain Orientation on the Design of PV Facilities with Single-Axis Trackers
(MDPI, 2020)
This paper investigates how to optimally orient the photovoltaic solar trackers of an axis parallel to the terrain, applying the sky model of Hay–Davies. This problem has been widely studied. However, the number of studies ...
Colonization Pattern of Abandoned Croplands by Quercus pyrenaica in a Mediterranean Mountain Region
(MDPI, 2021)
Land abandonment is a major global change driver in the Mediterranean region, where anthropic activity has played an important role in shaping landscape configuration. Understanding the woodland expansion towards abandoned ...
Effects of Management and Hillside Position on Soil Organic Carbon Stratification in Mediterranean Centenary Olive Grove
(MDPI, 2021)
The short- and medium—long-term effects of management and hillside position on soil organic carbon (SOC) changes were studied in a centenary Mediterranean rainfed olive grove. One way to measure these changes is to analyze ...
Study of the Dependence of Solar Radiation Regarding Design Variables in Photovoltaic Solar Installations with Optimal Dual-Axis Tracking
(MDPI, 2021)
Solar tracking is an efficient strategy to increase the radiative capture of photovoltaic collectors. Within the multiple efforts made in recent decades to improve the production of these facilities, various works have ...
Soil Productivity Degradation in a Long-Term Eroded Olive Orchard under Semiarid Mediterranean Conditions
(MDPI, 2021)
Olive groves are one of the most important agro-systems in the Mediterranean basin, and the Andalusia region produces the highest quantity of olive oil in Europe. The aim of this work was to evaluate the long-term (15 ...
Correlation of banana productivity levels and soil morphological properties using regularized optimal scaling regression
(Elsevier, 2022)
Soil morphological properties described in the field, such as texture, consistence or structure, provide a valuable tool for the evaluation of soil productivity potential. In this study, we developed a regression model ...
