Tarragó Aymerich, Mariona (Date of defense: 2018-06-29)
Sewage sludge is a high volume, potentially toxic waste generated during the decontamination process of wastewater. Improved solutions for waste disposal require its conversion into an end product or at least a raw material ...
Moragas Rodriguez, Mar (Date of defense: 2017-06-12)
The complexity of the interplay between tectonics and sedimentation increases when salt tectonics is involved because of the ductility of salt and its ability to flow. Discrimination between extensional tectonics and ...
Margalef Marti, Rosanna (Date of defense: 2020-02-28)
The worldwide persistence of nitrate (NO -) in groundwater is worrying since this compound has been related to human illnesses and to eutrophication of aquatic ecosystems. The main sources of pollution are linked to intensive ...
Xu, Jingyao (Date of defense: 2019-04-26)
Ti-rich minerals occur in xenoliths of metasomatized mantle peridotites, MARID and PIC. Xenocrysts produced by disaggregation during the intrusion have equivalent compositions. Early crystallization in the first intrusive ...
Butjosa Molines, Lidia (Date of defense: 2018-01-12)
This PhD is about the serpentinitic matrix, mafic crust and exotic ultramafic blocks of the Villa Clara serpentinitic mélange (VCSM) in central Cuba in an attempt to evaluate the evolution of oceanic lithosphere. Each of ...
Macridachis González, Jorge (Date of defense: 2022-07-15)
Quality attributes of food products such as visual appearance, melting behavior, or shelf-life are strongly determined by the crystallization behavior of natural fats and oils within. In turn, this behavior depends on the ...
Cruset Segura, David (Date of defense: 2019-07-12)
The south eastern Pyrenees allowed us to study the relationships between fluid flow and deformation in a complete section of a well-preserved fold and thrust belt. Furthermore, this study enables us to decipher the main ...
Torró i Abat, Lisard (Date of defense: 2017-01-27)
The Maimón and Los Ranchos formations in Central and Oriental Cordilleras, Dominican Republic, Hispaniola Island, are acknowledged to be representative of the most primitive tholeiitic magmatic series recorded in the Greater ...
Rodríguez Fernández, Diana (Date of defense: 2018-07-20)
Carbon tetrachloride (CT) and chloroform (CF) are chlorinated methanes (CMs) which have been released to the environment for decades owing to scarce waste management. Since they are dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs), ...
Sendrós Brea-Iglesias, Alex (Date of defense: 2016-07-19)
La presente tesis tiene como objetivos el desarrollo, aplicación, calibración y validación del uso de información geofísica para la gestión, la caracterización y el estudio de la vulnerabilidad a la contaminación de los ...
