Symbiotic actions for CO2 capture and utilization in Cyprus

DIMA C., ANGELIS-DIMAKIS A., (Corresponding) ARAMPATZIS G.

Topic:

Circular economy and industrial symbiosis

CO2 capture and utilisation (CCU) is one of the main pillars of EU strategy towards the reduction of the greenhouse gases. The development of symbiotic actions between CO2-emitting industries and potential receivers not only contributes to the above advantages but also has the possibility of...Read more

CO2 absorption into 4-diethylamino-2-butanol solution in a membrane contactor under wetting or non-wetting conditions

Li L., Pan Z., Baena-Moreno F., Borhani T., (Corresponding) Zhang Z.

Topic:

Gas emissions control and utilization

Natural gas produces a large amount of carbon emissions in the process of mining and processing, on the one hand from the energy use of processing facilities, on the other hand from the way that natural gas is extracted. The adoption of appropriate carbon capture technology is of urgency. The...Read more

Calculating Carbon Footprint in ports through a new Standard Tool: case study applications

Azarkamand S., Ferré G., (Corresponding) Darbra R.

Topic:

Environmental impact of maritime transport

One of the main environmental problems in ports is Climate Change and its consequences. Since 1979, many international organizations have been working to control Climate Change. A literature review and a practical research were carried out to set up the basis to create a tool. These studies showed...Read more

Incorporation of negatively charged MWCNT-fGO self-assembled nanomaterials into PLA polymeric membranes for wastewater treatment

(Corresponding) Khalil H., Nassar L., Wadi V., Naddeo V., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

The incorporation of nanomaterials in membrane’s matrix aims mainly to improve the properties of the membranes such as hydrophilicity, mechanical strength, thermal stability, water flux. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and functionalized graphene oxide (fGO) have recently attracted attention...Read more

CO2 and NO2 distributions over Greece as seen by OCO-2 and TROPOMI

Gialesakis N., Daskalakis N., (Corresponding) Kanakidou M.

Topic:

Climpact: national network for climate change and its impacts

Greenhouse gases are the driving force behind human-induced global warming. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the greenhouse gas (GHG) with the longer lifetime in the atmosphere, in the order of hundreds of years, and the largest contribution to the radiative forcing of the atmosphere due to its increasing...Read more

Influence of fires on atmospheric composition over Greece as seen by TROPOMI S5P

Kalogeraki E., Sfakianaki M., Gialesakis N., Chatziparaschos M., Daskalakis N., (Corresponding) Kanakidou M.

Topic:

Climpact: national network for climate change and its impacts

The present study uses data from the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) on board Copernicus Sentinel-5 Precursor satellite to investigate the impact of the forest fires plumes on atmospheric aerosols and gases. For this purpose, the Aerosol Index, nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and carbon...Read more

Environmental life cycle assessment of nectarine as produced in Southeast Spain

NÚÑEZ P., (Corresponding) SAN MIGUEL G., BAÑALES B., DIEZMA B., CORREA E.

Topic:

Life cycle analysis (lca)

The aim of this work is to evaluate the environmental performance of fruit production using Life Cycle Assessment considering the case study of nectarines produced in the Murcia Region (Southeast Spain). The investigation was carried out according to ISO 14040/14044 using a cradle to grave...Read more
