Home We (humans) are all damaging Earth with every single action;
therefore, we have the power to stop this abuse and
any small change in our daily activities
can give some relief to our planet...
Research Anaerobic Digestion
This process permits to treat several types of organic wastes and has the potential to produce gas with high energy value . Possibly treatable wastes include: agricultural, municipal and wastewater.
Solid Wastes Management
The collection, treatment and disposal of solid wastes involves the use of several resources and the minimization of the impact of the management operations in the environment can be accomplished with proper policies, planning, equipment and facilities.
Bioremediation
The metabolism of some organism is adapted to utilize hydrocarbons and other contaminants and this property can be use to remove them from contaminated sites, both soil and water.
