معرفی
Marco Capodici is a Researcher in Engineering at the University of Palermo, specifically within the Department of Engineering (formerly Hydraulics area). His office is located at Viale delle Scienze Building 8. He holds regular office hours on Mondays from 10:00 to 12:00 and can be contacted via email at marco.capodici@unipa.it.
Dr. Capodici's educational background includes:
- Degree in Environmental and Land Management Engineering (2004/2005 academic year)
- PhD in Hydraulic and Environmental Engineering from the University of Palermo (23rd cycle), completed in 2012
Marco Capodici's research primarily focuses on groundwater bioremediation treatments, with special emphasis on nitrate contamination. His work also encompasses respirometric characterization of wastewater and the advanced treatment of urban and industrial wastewater and landfill leachate. His expertise spans membrane bioreactor technology, sludge management, and greenhouse gas emissions from wastewater treatment processes.
Analysis of Dr. Capodici's publication record from 2010-2025 reveals a consistent research trajectory in environmental engineering with particular focus on wastewater treatment technologies. His work demonstrates expertise in membrane bioreactors, biological nutrient removal processes, and the treatment of challenging wastewater streams including saline and industrial wastewaters. A significant portion of his research addresses the critical environmental challenge of nitrate contamination in groundwater through biological denitrification processes. His more recent work (2020-2025) shows increasing attention to resource recovery from wastewater, sustainable treatment solutions, and the environmental impact of treatment processes, particularly regarding greenhouse gas emissions.
Dr. Capodici has extensive experience in both laboratory and pilot-scale wastewater treatment research. His work often involves detailed analysis of microbial communities, process optimization, and evaluation of novel treatment approaches for challenging wastewater streams. While specific grant information isn't detailed in the available text, his publication record suggests involvement in research projects related to advanced wastewater treatment technologies and environmental remediation.
His research appears to be conducted within the Engineering Department at the University of Palermo, likely involving collaboration with other researchers in the field of environmental engineering and possibly with industrial partners given the applied nature of much of his work on real-world wastewater treatment challenges.
