Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oxygen
  • Anaerobic digestion
  • Biochemistry

His primary areas of study are Anaerobic digestion, Waste management, Biogas, Manure and Sewage treatment. Other disciplines of study, such as Waste treatment, Biodegradation, Anaerobic exercise, Food science and Biofuel, are mixed together with his Anaerobic digestion studies. His work investigates the relationship between Waste management and topics such as Ammonia that intersect with problems in Environmental chemistry, Hydrolysis and Biodegradable waste.

His research in Biogas intersects with topics in Biomass, Bioenergy and Agronomy. He merges Manure with Digestate in his study. The Sewage treatment study combines topics in areas such as Sludge, Wastewater and Municipal solid waste.

His most cited work include:

  • A critical review on anaerobic co-digestion achievements between 2010 and 2013 (539 citations)
  • A critical review on anaerobic co-digestion achievements between 2010 and 2013 (539 citations)
  • Towards a standardization of biomethane potential tests (276 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Anaerobic digestion, Biogas, Waste management, Pulp and paper industry and Anaerobic exercise. His Anaerobic digestion study spans across into areas like Biofuel, Sewage treatment, Sludge, Food science and Biodegradation. His research integrates issues of Digestion and Sewage in his study of Sludge.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Biogas, Biomass are connected with Environmental chemistry and other disciplines. His research on Waste management frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Manure. His Pulp and paper industry research integrates issues from Struvite, Phosphate and Ammonia.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Anaerobic digestion (105.15%)
  • Biogas (62.89%)
  • Waste management (50.52%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Anaerobic digestion (105.15%)
  • Pulp and paper industry (43.30%)
  • Food science (27.84%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Sergi Astals mainly investigates Anaerobic digestion, Pulp and paper industry, Food science, Biogas and Biomass. Sergi Astals integrates Anaerobic digestion and Sewage treatment in his studies. His studies deal with areas such as Struvite and Anaerobic membrane bioreactor as well as Sewage treatment.

His Pulp and paper industry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Wastewater, Forward osmosis and Sewage. His Food science study which covers Activated sludge that intersects with Sludge, Tap water and Effluent. His work on Biorefinery as part of general Biomass study is frequently connected to Sodium sulfate, Sulfate and Protocol, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Unraveling the literature chaos around free ammonia inhibition in anaerobic digestion (37 citations)
  • Unraveling the literature chaos around free ammonia inhibition in anaerobic digestion (37 citations)
  • Techno-economic analysis of combining forward osmosis-reverse osmosis and anaerobic membrane bioreactor technologies for municipal wastewater treatment and water production. (19 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Oxygen
  • Biochemistry
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Anaerobic digestion, Pulp and paper industry, Biogas, Wastewater and Forward osmosis. Methane potential is the focus of his Anaerobic digestion research. His study brings together the fields of Sewage treatment and Wastewater.

His studies in Membrane technology integrate themes in fields like Membrane fouling, Fouling and Sewage. His Biorefinery study, which is part of a larger body of work in Biomass, is frequently linked to Biodiesel production, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Mathematics research includes a combination of various areas of study, such as Methanogen, Methanoculleus, Davies equation, Methanosarcina and Methanosaeta.
