Assessing wind farms projects with the use of multicriteria methods and stakeholders analysis
Mpakali E., (Corresponding) Vagiona D.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
The use of wind potential and the protection of biodiversity are two conflicting aspects that arise in the development of wind energy projects, generating conflicts between different stakeholders. The aim of this study is to develop a methodology for assessing the suitability of existing wind farms...Read more
One-stage and multistage anoxic/oxic systems based on continuous plug-flow anammox process for mature landfill leachate treatment
Ren S., (Corresponding) Peng Y.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
As a promising biotechnology, the anammox process has been increasingly investigated for landfill leachate treatment. However, its application has been limited by the long generation time of anammox bacteria (AnAOB) and insufficient nitrite supply in actual projects. To overcome these obstacles,...Read more
Photocatalytic Degradation Of Aldrin Under The Influence Via Ozonation In The Presence Of Ag2o/Smfeo3 Under Visible Light
Immandhi A., (Corresponding) Maddila S., Jonnalagadda S.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
The photocatalytic degradation of aldrin, a hugely toxic and commonly used pesticide was studied using Ag doped SmFeO3 as a heterogenous catalyst under ozonation reaction. Various photocatalytic nano particles were prepared with varied dopant percentage (1%, 2.5% and 5%) which were characterised...Read more
Evaluation of phytotoxicity of landfill leachates after treatment with UV radiation based processes
Grilla E., Isari E., (Corresponding) Kokkinos P., Parthenidis P., Evgenidou E., Lambropoulou D., Kalavrouziotis I.
Topic:
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
The aim of this study is to investigate the ability of reuse landfill leachates after advanced treatment in agriculture. UV/Fenton and Fenton processes were applied in the treatment of a stabilized (L2) and a medium (L1) landfill leachate. In addition to above data, phytotoxicity tests were...Read more
Modelling Closed-Water Loops in the Process Industries
(Corresponding) Karkou E., Savvakis N., Aryblia M., Arampatzis G.
Topic:
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
Global water scarcity poses a significant challenge for the process industry, especially in water-stressed areas. Population growth and rapid industrialization make evident the necessity to incorporate sustainable and efficient water management strategies in the industrial sector. This study aims...Read more

Removal of copper (II) from aqueous solution using biopolymer-based materials: Theoretical and statistical physics investigation for wastewater treatment
ELBOUGHDIRI N., FERKOUS H., ROUIBAH K., DELIM A., BOUBLIA A., ALGETHAMI J., ALQAHTANI M., JEON B., (Corresponding) Yadav Y., BENGUERBA Y.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Pollution from heavy metals is increasingly recognized as a major threat to Earth's ecosystem. Due to the potential economic and ecological consequences, there is an urgent need to develop waste management systems and strategies for disposing of copper ions (Cu2+) from the industrial sector...Read more

“AquaSPICE – Advancing Sustainability of Process Industries through Digital and Circular Water Use Innovations”
(Corresponding) Arampatzis G.
Topic:
EU Projects showcase
Either we rethink how we use water or we threaten the availability. Even though there is overall enough water to meet the world’s growing needs, it is necessary to make changes in how water is used, managed and shared. The EU-funded AquaSPICE project will increase awareness in resource efficiency...Read more
