Quality improvement of collected rain waters by elimination of micropollutants, to sea site settlements with the use and new technologies, as suitable vegetation.
(Corresponding) Kollias P., Kollias V., Kollias S.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The continuous increase of water necessities to sea site settlements, created the problem to pursues the collection of rain waters in order to use them, after their treatment to succeed the necessary quality improvement. To realize that we need at first to mark the invented water sources to the...Read more
OMCEC: A Novel Method for Simultaneous Detection of Composition, Geometry and Motion of Suspended Particles
(Corresponding) Nguyen T., Tang F., Maggi F.
Topic:
Microplastics in the marine environment
Here, we introduce OMCEC, a laboratory-based system that simultaneously measures the material composition, geometric properties, and motion of individual suspended aggregates in a non-invasive and non-destructive way. OMCEC consists of a full-color high-resolution optical system and real-time...Read more

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) & Indicators: Managing Drylands under Climate Change Conditions
Potamianou N., (Corresponding) Papadopoulou C., Papadopoulou M., Charchousi D.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
The future sustainable development constitutes a critical issue at a global scale. It builds upon the concepts of combating poverty & inequality, mitigating climate change impacts as well as protecting natural & cultural resources through innovation & adoption of eco-friendly solutions...Read more
Remarkable role of experimental olefin-maleic-anhydride copolymer based compatibilizing additives in PET bottle recycling
(Corresponding) Nagy B., Varga C.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Over the past 50 years demand for plastics drastically increased worldwide resulting in plastic wastes causing serious environmental problems. The main market sector of european plastics industry is the packaging industry most of which is polyolefins and poly(ethythylene-terephtalate). Polymer...Read more
Plastics in WEEE screens: difficulties and opportunities to improve the recycling rate
(Corresponding) Arduin R., Grimaud G., Charbuillet C., Laratte B., Perry N.
Topic:
Electric and electronic waste
Nowadays the screens collected by the official e-waste schemes in France are mostly comprised of Cathode Ray Tube (CRT). Nevertheless, Flat Panel Display (FPD) collection should increase in the following years. Among other differences in material compositions, FPD screens have higher plastic...Read more
UN(K)NOWN Project: Development of Anammox microbial inocula to improve nitrogen removal efficiency in wastewater treatment
(Corresponding) Ribeiro H., Machado A., Costa-Dias S., Wijaya I., Salgado P., Bordalo A., Teixeira C.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The discovery of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) revealed the existence of a shortcut in the classic nitrogen cycle where ammonium is converted directly to dinitrogen gas. Anammox process can be used to develop more cost and energy-efficient sustainable nitrogen removal systems comparing to...Read more
Start-up of the nitrogen removal process in an anaerobic up-flow reactor inoculated with aeration tank sludge
Wijaya I., (Corresponding) Ribeiro H., Soedjono E., Slamet ., Teixeira C., Bordalo A.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) has been considered a promisingly alternative to traditional nitrification/denitrification to remove nitrogen in an autotrophic process, without using an external carbon source, requiring low energy consumption and sludge production. The start-up of the...Read more
In this study, pyrolysis and catalytic pyrolysis of the plum seed was investigated. For this purpose, the characteristics of the raw materials were determined by proximate analysis (moisture, ash, volatile matter, fixed carbon), structural analysis (holocellulose, hemicellulose, hemicellulose,...Read more
Stakeholder Participation in Prioritization of Water Supply and Demand in Jordan
(Corresponding) Shammout M., Shatanawi M.
Topic:
Efficient water resources management in cr(vi) impacted water bodies
Stakeholder participation in prioritization of water supply and demand was developed to assist water resource entities and water users on decision making when coping with water scarcity, climate change and contaminated water in Zarqa River Basin, Jordan. The basin was selected for CrITERIA project...Read more
