In spite of this common ground, discussions on sustainability usually give insufficient attention to safety. In the last years the EU has made large investments to increase the energy efficiency of the existing building stock, paving the way for a low-carbon future; however, less effort has been made to enhance its seismic resilience. Therefore, the safety and, consequently, the sustainability of towns situated in earthquake-prone countries remain inadequate. In such countries, energy renovation actions should be combined with seismic retrofitting. However, a number of barriers considerably limit the real possibility of extensively undertaking combined retrofit actions, especially for multi-owner housing and high-rise buildings. These barriers are of different kinds: technical (e.g., unfeasibility and/or ineffectiveness of conventional retrofit solutions), financial (e.g., high renovation costs, insufficient incentives/subsidies), organizational (e.g., occupants' disruption and relocation, renovation consensus by condominium ownerships), and cultural/social (insufficient information and skills, lack of adequate policy measures for promoting renovation actions). This book aims to overcome these barriers and to bridge the gap between sustainability and safety, so to conserve both human and environmental resources. 606 $aArchitecture$2bicssc 610 $amultifunctional component 610 $aseismic reinforcement 610 $aEastern Sicily 610 $aurban planning 610 $aU-value 610 $apre-diagnostic process 610 $aoptimization 610 $asafety 610 $aenergy efficiency 610 $aAnnex 56 610 $agreen infrastructure 610 $aenergy retrofitting 610 $aapartment blocks 610 $aseismic vulnerability assessment 610 $aenergy performances 610 $acombined interventions 610 $adamage mechanisms 610 $asustainability 610 $acultural value 610 $arisk analysis 610 $aparametric design 610 $aseismic retrofit 610 $aenergy retrofit 610 $abuilding envelope 610 $ahigh-rise building 610 $atechnological design 610 $acost-effective 610 $aseismic improvement 610 $aenergy savings 610 $apolicy measures 610 $ahistorical masonry 610 $ahistoric urban fabric 610 $aseismic analysis 610 $ahistoric massive envelope 610 $amasonry building aggregates 610 $ainnovative product 610 $afaade 610 $aexoskeleton 610 $aseismic retrofitting 610 $abuilding rehabilitation 610 $anearly zero-energy buildings (nZEB) 610 $adry-assembly system 610 $aBIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaic) 610 $atranslucent panel 610 $aseismic renovation 610 $aenergy performance 610 $aarchitectural image 610 $aseismic and energy retrofit 610 $ahistorical building 610 $aecosystem services 610 $amechanical resistance 610 $asustainability and aesthetics 615 7$aArchitecture 700 $aMargani$b Giuseppe$01305933 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910346662203321 996 $aEnergy and Seismic Renovation Strategies for Sustainable Cities$93028034 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04110nam 2200901z- 450 001 9910557393603321 005 20220111 035 $a(CKB)5400000000041962 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/76779 035 $a(oapen)doab76779 035 $a(oapen)76779 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000041962 100 $a20202201d2021 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aAnaerobic Co-Digestion of Lignocellulosic Waste 210 $aBasel, Switzerland$cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2021 215 $a1 online resource (224 p.) 311 08$a3-0365-1142-3 311 08$a3-0365-1143-1 330 $aSome terms, such as eco-friendly, circular economy and green technologies, have remained in our vocabulary, because the truth is that mankind is altering the planet to put its own subsistence at risk. Besides, for rationalization in the consumption of raw materials and energy, the recycling of waste through efficient and sustainable processes forms the backbone of the paradigm of a sustainable industry. One of the most relevant technologies for the new productive model is anaerobic digestion. Historically, anaerobic digestion has been developed in the field of urban wastes and wastewater treatments, but in the new challenge, its role is more relevant. Anaerobic digestion is a technologically mature biological treatment, which joins bioenergy production with the efficient removal of contaminants. This issue provides a specialized, but broad in scope, overview of the possibilities of the anaerobic digestion of lignocellulosic biomass (mainly forestry and agricultural wastes), which is expected to be a more promising substrate for the development of biorefineries. Its conversion to bioenergy through anaerobic digestion must solve some troubles: the complex lignocellulosic structure needs to be deconstructed by pretreatments and a co-substrate may need to be added to improve the biological process. Ten selected works advance this proposal into the future. 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 610 $aAD systems 610 $aanaerobic co-digestion 610 $aanaerobic digestion 610 $abiofuels 610 $abiogas 610 $abiomass 610 $acellulase 610 $acodigestion 610 $acorn residue 610 $adigestate 610 $adilute acid pretreatment 610 $adisintegration kinetics 610 $aexhausted sugar beet pulp 610 $afeedstock and degradation pathway 610 $ahydro-thermal pretreatment 610 $alignocellulosic biomass 610 $alignocellulosic waste 610 $alimitations 610 $amanure 610 $amethane 610 $amethane improvement 610 $an/a 610 $anon-classical parameters 610 $anutrients 610 $aone-pot process 610 $aoperating parameters 610 $aoptimization 610 $aorganosolv pretreatment 610 $aparticle-rich substrate 610 $apig manure 610 $apretreatment methods 610 $apretreatment technologies 610 $aprocess stability 610 $arecycling 610 $areview 610 $arice straw 610 $asemi-continuous feeding mode 610 $asoluble sugars 610 $asorghum mutant 610 $asugar beet by-products 610 $asuspended solids disintegration 610 $athermophilic 615 7$aTechnology: general issues 700 $aRomero Garcia$b Luis Isidoro$4edt$01297529 702 $aAlvarez Gallego$b Carlos José$4edt 702 $aFernández Guelfo$b Luis Alberto$4edt 702 $aRomero Garcia$b Luis Isidoro$4oth 702 $aAlvarez Gallego$b Carlos José$4oth 702 $aFernández Guelfo$b Luis Alberto$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557393603321 996 $aAnaerobic Co-Digestion of Lignocellulosic Waste$93024502 997 $aUNINA
