Monitoring of Vitis vinifera endophyte population
(Corresponding) Vrchotová B., Škotková M., Vlková V., Kolochová I., Lovecká P.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
Due to increasing demands to agricultural production it is necessary to fine processes which will increase health of cultural plants and will have positive impact on landscape with potential to increase production. Our work is concerned on grapevine plants (Vitis vinifera) endophytic population. We...Read more
Cooperation of bacteria and fungus on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons degradation
(Corresponding) Vrchotová B., Danda M., Lovecká P.
Topic:
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are diverse family of hydrophobic organic pollutants. They can be removed from environment by bacterial degradation. One of the process which could limit biodegradation is transfer of hydrophobic contaminants in to aqueous phase were degrading microorganisms live...Read more
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Majority of terrestrial soils are used primarily for agricultural production. The main factor of soil fertility is mediated by soil microorganisms and invertebrates. Soil microorganisms plays crutial role in ecosystems nutrient cycling and therefore any change in their diversity could have serious...Read more
COMPLEX APPROACH FOR ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN SOIL MICROBIOME
(Corresponding) Macůrková A., Drobníková T., Maryška L., Jindřichová B., Burketová L., Siegel J., Valentová O., Lovecká P.
Topic:
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
In the few past decades, genetic approaches for analysis of soil microbiome, e.g pyrosequencing, gained major attention and cultivation techniques were pushed into the background. The combination of several techniques could be useful and cheap approach for analysis of changes in soil microbiome. In...Read more
Effects of Cr(VI)-contaminated irrigation water on growth and development of selected crop species
Georgiadou E., Zissimos A., Christoforou I., Christofi C., Fotopoulos V., (Corresponding) Christou A.
Topic:
Efficient water resources management in cr(vi) impacted water bodies
Chromium (Cr) is a metal well-known to cause environmental pollution due to its association with a number of industrial processes involving leather, steel, electroplating, chemicals, dyes and paints. It is toxic to plants and microorganisms, and its study is attracting a lot of attention due to its...Read more
(Corresponding) LIM D., BALLESTEROS F., DE SALES L.
Topic:
Solid waste management
The problem on solid waste has been and still remains as a major problem in the Philippines especially in developing countries where proper facilities for collection and disposal are not always available. In Metro Manila alone, daily waste generation stands at 8,600 tons coming from a population 12...Read more
The possibility of recycling of multilayer packaging waste: Reducing Environmental impacts
(Corresponding) Mumladze T., ŠLEINIŪTĖ A., Denafas G.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Multilayer Packaging Waste (MPW) represents the largest fraction of packaging waste and is mainly composed of multiple plastic films laminated with Al foil. Most produced multilayer film is based on the different polymers, such as: polyester (PET), polypropylene (PP), and polyethylene (PE) as main...Read more
Enabling the Total Resource Utilization (TRU) Habitat
Tsantrizos P., (Corresponding) Curry N.
Topic:
Water, energy and/or food nexus
Terragon Environmental Technologies Inc. has developed a suite of user-friendly technologies to treat solid and liquid byproducts of human consumption now considered “waste” and convert them into “resources” that can be re-used in the same place in which they are generated (in situ). These...Read more

Electrochemical properties of SnO2/rGO nanocomposites
(Corresponding) Todorova N., Giannakopoulou T., Lekakou C., Arabatzis I., (Corresponding) Trapalis C.
Topic:
Nanomaterials in the environmnents applications and effects
SnO2 nanoparticles were deposited on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to obtain SnO2/rGO composites with high energy storage capacitance. For this purpose, graphite oxide (GtO) was synthesized and hydrothermally treated in presence of Sn precursor. The quantity of GtO was varied to tune the...Read more
(Corresponding) Mosquera-Losada M., Ferreiro Domínguez N., Dario A., Francisco Javier R., (Corresponding) Jose Javier S., Rigueiro-Rodriguez A.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Sewage sludge use in agriculture is promoted by the European union since the normative of cleaning waters related to the compulsory use of depuration plants in all cities over 2000 inhabitants was finally implemented in 2005. The USC has been conducted long-term experiment research of application...Read more
