Anaerobic digestion is the most widely process used for the stabilisation of wastewater treatment sludge. Organic matter is transformed into CH4 and CO2 by the action of different bacteria groups. The main advantages are the reduction of the volume of waste sludge and the production of methane gas that can be utilized as energy supply for the process. During anaerobic digestion of activated sludge from enhanced biological phosphorus removal process (EBPR-process), most of the phosphorus eliminated during the water treatment, as well as that from cellular lysis, is released. So that,...

El presente estudio tiene como objetivo estimar valores cuantitativos del empleo verde en el sector de bioenergías de la provincia de Santa Fe (Argentina). Debido a que la definición de empleo verde implica dos condiciones, una ambiental y otra de calidad de trabajo, su estimación necesita también de un análisis cualitativo del empleo generado en el sector. Asimismo, se propone describir las características económicas del sector bioenergético de Santa Fe y utilizar matrices de insumo- producto para estimar el impacto que políticas o regulaciones seleccionadas tendrían sobre el nivel ...
