Floating wetlands as Nature-based Solutions for marine water pollution control in Mediterranean: Challenges and future perspectives

(Corresponding) Takavakoglou V., Pana E., Plakas K.
Topic: 
Sustainable water management in the mediterranean – technological solutions, demonstration and deployment
Mediterranean Sea is widely regarded as one of the most threatened environments in the world because of the high population densities, the lack of consistent waste-management schemes, the large influxes of tourists and the strategic merchant navigation. The growing environmental awareness of...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

Towards sustainable plastics recycling: assessing the integrity status of polypropylene (PP) debris to recycle marine-degraded materials

(Corresponding) Lourmpas N., Kyriakakis E., Efthimiadou E., Papanikos P., Lekkas D., Alexopoulos N.
Topic: 
Recycling of materials to new products
Polypropylene (PP) is a widely used polymer with significant environmental implications when improperly disposed. Effective recycling strategies for PP are crucial for mitigating plastic pollution and achieving sustainability goals. This investigation focuses on classifying PP debris based on their...Read more
