Gil-Solsona R., Pons-Escoda A., Díez S., Gutiérrez-Martín D., Vidal-Sarró N., Bruna J., Dadvand P., Majós C., (Corresponding) Gago-Ferrero P.
Topic:
Biomonitoring
Diffuse gliomas are a highly heterogeneous and aggressive brain tumours with poor prognosis and survival and few established risk factors. Environmental exposures are suspected in the pathogenesis of these tumours; however, results of existing studies are limited and inconsistent, particularly for...Read more

Domestic Photo-Voltaic installations - their contribution and practcalities
(Corresponding) Venables R.
Topic:
Renewable energy sources
The roofs of domestic-scale properties used to haveone overall main function – to keep the weather out. But since the first solar-PV panels were fitted in the UK in 1994, it has become increasingly clear that, to reduce carbon emissions and thus contribute to the transition to net-zero, all...Read more

Climate change, air pollution, and risks to honeybees – a review of biomonitoring data
Soares S., Delerue-Matos C., (Corresponding) Oliveira M.
Topic:
Air pollution
Environmental pollution and climate change are among the biggest concerns of the World population and represent an increased risk for the survival of very sensitive animals and insects, including honeybees. Environmental health monitoring can be performed through the biomonitorization of sentinel...Read more
A Machine Learning Approach for the prediction of solid fuels consumption in Turkey
Celik N., (Corresponding) Konyalioglu A.
Topic:
Environmental data analysis and modelling
Solid fuels are very crucial energy sources as most of industries use them for obtaining heat, electricity and light. Furthermore, since solid fuels are scarce sources in Turkey, it is very important to forecast the consumption in order to effectively manage the energy policies and to conduct an...Read more

Design requirements for the development of an LCA Engine
(Corresponding) Koidis C., Vlachokostas C., Achillas C., Michalidou A., Aidonis D., Bantsos A., Makris D., Mertzanakis C., Savva C.
Topic:
Life cycle analysis (lca)
The work focuses on the development of a web-based tool to promote life cycle thinking and assessment of agricultural production. The computational tool is based on a sophisticated LCA Engine which provides personalized, real-time results, with the exploitation of real data from sensors. This comes...Read more

Comparative life cycle assessment of lithium-ion batteries
Tournaviti M., Savva C., (Corresponding) Vlachokostas C.
Topic:
Life cycle analysis (lca)
The transportation sector is the second largest source of carbon emissions worldwide. In the process of achieving zero emissions, the electrification of the sector and the replacement of internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs) with electric vehicles (EVs) is being promoted. Batteries as the...Read more

Green Transformation of Organized Industrial Zones (OIZ) to Eco – Industrial Park (EIP): Experiences from Turkiye
(Corresponding) Dolgen D., Alpaslan M.
Topic:
CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND BIOECONOMY
Turkiye has been encouraging the industries with green growth perspective and has supported this strategy towards the implementation of new eco industrial parks (EIP) as well as transform the existing organized industrial zones (OIZ) to green conditions. In order to achieve this strategy, certain...Read more
Mitigating the Environmental Impact of Construction Projects through Effective Pollution Management Strategies
(Corresponding) Corpus R., Bayani M., Almacha A., Tana K.
Topic:
Urban environment and health
Construction initiatives can substantially contribute to air, water, and soil pollution, as well as soil degradation. These activities can have long-lasting negative effects on local communities and ecosystems. It is imperative to develop and implement effective construction pollution management...Read more

Simulating the fate of selected PAHs in Saronikos Gulf, Eastern Mediterranean, using a far-field water-quality model.
(Corresponding) Mazioti A., Kolovoyiannis V., Petalas S., Mamoutos I., Potiris E., Krasakopoulou E., Tragou E., Zervakis V.
Topic:
Environmental data analysis and modelling
The aim of this study is to investigate the distribution of selected Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) and predict their fate in the marine area of Saronikos Gulf. A three-dimensional model (Delft3D-FLOW) was used to simulate sea circulation and hydrographic variables (salinity, temperature...Read more
