The presence of organochlorinated pesticides in the marine environment of the Mediterranean Sea: A Systematic Review

TZOURTZOUKLI H., PETSAS A., (Corresponding) VAGI M.

Topic:

Marine environment and coastal management

Plant protection products, also known as pesticides, are chemical compounds that are used for the protcection of plants against pests, weeds and diseases which affect the quantinty and quality of agricultural products. The present study is a systematic review of the scientific literature regarding...Read more

Low temperature conversion of methanol to higher hydrocarbons and hydrogen using a non-thermal plasma

(Corresponding) Dahiru U., Zhang K., Harvey A.

Topic:

Environmental odour, monitoring and control

In recent years, the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from chemical manufacturing plants, agricultural practises, and indoor sources has attracted public concern, as these emissions have a negative effect on both human health and the environment. VOCs are precursor for the formation of...Read more

Sustainable treatment of air pollutants by moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) coupled with algae photobioreactor (APBR)

Pahunang R., (Corresponding) Zarra T., Oliva G., Senatore V., Belgiorno V., Ballesteros F., (Corresponding) Naddeo V.

Topic:

Environmental odour, monitoring and control

The presence of high concentrations of VOCs in the atmosphere can lead to negative consequences for humans and the environment. The treatment of these compounds is thus necessary before their release into the atmosphere. In the study, an advanced moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) coupled with an...Read more
