As part of its research and innovation initiatives, Eurovix has activated an industrial PhD dedicated to the topics of innovation and environmental sustainability. The project, part of the 37th cycle of Ph.D.s and funded with ESF REACT-EU resources for A.Y. 2021/2022, concerns the research training track “Microbiome-based applications for the sustainability of food prodUction and […]
Innovative cropping systems for sustainable management of artichoke production
Eurovix participated in research and development activities as part of a project aimed at defining innovative cropping systems for sustainable management of artichoke production in southern Italian environments. Activities focused on the study and adoption of innovative techniques for regenerating tired soils, with the aim of: Reduce the use of chemical fertilizers, encouraging more sustainable […]
Industrial doctorate in marine science and technology
Eurovix has activated an industrial Ph.D. in Marine Science and Technology, with the goal of improving the environmental conditions of Genoa’s Old Port water body. In this area, especially during the summer period, there are frequent bad odors due to the presence of stratified sediments dating back to historic times and incidental discharges conveyed by […]
Study of the Malvasia di Sardegna grape variety
The research project dedicated to the Malvasia di Sardegna grape variety aims to evaluate the effectiveness of different bioactivator-based organic fertilization protocols and their impact on the agronomic and physiological characteristics of the plant, as well as on the productivity and quality of the must/wine matrix. The initiative stems from the desire to combine tradition […]
Reducing the environmental impact given by sea bream farms with sea cages
The study involved a bioremediation project carried out in the port of Licata, Sicily, with the aim of reducing the environmental impact from bream farms in floating cages. The port area involved in the experimentation has seabed depths of about 8 meters and is subject to accumulation of organic material due to intensive breeding activities. […]
Innovative and eco-friendly solutions for hydrocarbon decontamination in ports
The research study involved the application, on a pilot scale, of a bioremediation practice for the treatment of sediment dredged from the hydrocarbon-contaminated seabed of the port of Livorno. The main objective of the project is to develop an innovative, eco-friendly and adaptable solution for the decontamination and upgrading of dredged sediments. The process involves […]
Study on cultivation of durum wheat with protocols for organic farming
The research project concerns the cultivation of durum wheat through the application of organic farming protocols, with the aim of identifying sustainable solutions to improve crop management and production yields. The study activities are developed over three agricultural years and are based on a multifactorial experiment structured on two main factors of variation: Crop variety, […]
Isolation and characterization of microbial strains for environmental bioremediation
The research project is aimed at the isolation and tropho-functional characterization of microbial (bacterial and/or fungal) strains endowed with high degradative capacity against various compounds in hydrocarbons, including: Aliphatic and alicyclic hydrocarbons; Aromatic compounds, polycyclic aromatics (PAHs) and aromatic heterocyclics. The selected strains are distinguished by a remarkable biosurfactant biosynthetic capacity, even under psychrophilic (low […]
Biochar Latium
The BIOCHAR LATIUM project is dedicated to the valorization of biochar obtained from the recovery of waste woody materials from Lazio’s production chains. The main objectives of the research project are: Experiment with biochar production from local waste materials; Evaluate the use of biochar as a soil conditioner for soil quality improvement; Promoting the activation […]
Canopaes Project
The CANOPAES research project (“Hemp: environmental and economic opportunities in Sardinia”) aims to assess the potential of hemp cultivation as a tool for the enhancement of areas subject to heavy persistent chemical pollution. A further aim of the project is to explore the possibilities of using hemp for innovative production characterized by high environmental sustainability […]
