Phosphorus concentration and speciation in urban wastewater for potential recovery
Santos, A. F.; Gando-Fereira, L. M.; Quina, M. J.; Alvarenga, PaulaPhosphorus (P) scarcity, jointly with eutrophication problems and water shortage, are forcing urban wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) to redirect their focus to nutrient recov-ery and treated water reuse.

Santos, A. F.; Fernandes, M.; Fernandes, Carla; Barros, Luísa; Veríssimo, M.Recent findings have demonstrated an increase in the prevalence of childhood obesity and overweight in Portugal, urging the need to study modifiable risk factors such as parental feeding practices. The Comprehensive Feeding Practices Questionnaire (CFPQ) is an important self-report measure assessing a broad range of responsive and non-responsive feeding practices. However, the CFPQ has not yet been validated in...
