Tsadilas C., Tzouvalekas M., (Corresponding) Evangelou E., Papadopoulos S., Papadoulis A., Petsoulas C., Tsitouras A., Grypari P., Smyrnis T.
Topic:
Lakes, rivers, estuaries and ecosystem health
The main objective of this study was to assess the quality of water from five monitoring stations in Asopos River (central Greece), and evaluate the main factors that affect the river water quality. Fifty one biochemical parameters measured both in situ and in the laboratory three times a year for...Read more

A DPSIR approach to selected Cr(VI) impacted groundwater bodies within Attica and Eastern Sterea Ellada River Basin Districts
(Corresponding) Pyrgaki K., Argyraki A., Kelepertzis E., Botsou F., Megremi I., Karavoltsos S., Mpouras A., Dassenakis M., Hatzaki M., Dermatas D.
Topic:
Efficient water resources management in cr(vi) impacted water bodies
The holistic approach of the Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) analytical framework in combination with Geographical Information Systems was applied to selected Cr(VI) impacted groundwater bodies. For the characterization of “state”, 157 samples including field blanks were collected...Read more
Harmonization of sampling and chemical analysis for the study of Cr(VI) water contamination in aquifers of eastern Mediterranean and Oman: the CrITERIA project experience
(Corresponding) Argyraki A., Kelepertzis E., Pyrgaki K., Botsou F., Megremi I., Dermatas D.
Topic:
Efficient water resources management in cr(vi) impacted water bodies
The CrITERIA project aims to deliver a harmonized data base, to assist water resource management organizations and water users on decision making when coping with water scarcity, climate extreme events and contaminated water. Contamination by Cr(VI) is used as an example of a specific water...Read more

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Analysis Assisted by Portable Sensing Devices for Precise Assessment of Indoor Environmental Conditions
Bali N., Voultsidis D., (Corresponding) Gialelis Y.
Topic:
ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND WELL-BEING
Indoor air quality has become an emergent issue for human health since burdened outdoor environments, stagnant air conditions and indoor human activities (cooking, cleaning, etc.) increase the pollutant concentration. Some of the pollutants that interest the most for indoor environments are PM2.5,...Read more

Life Cycle Assessment and Cost Benefit Analysis for the integrated assessment of an innovative Mn-TiO2 nanoparticle photocatalytic paint
(Corresponding) Karagkounis A., Fragkou E., Barmpas F., Efthimiou G., Tsegas G., Moussiopoulos N.
Topic:
Air pollution and health
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) are applied in combination in the frame of an integrated assessment of a new photocatalytic paint product developed within the LIFE VISIONS project. The Mn-TiO2 nanoparticle photocatalytic paint has been demonstrated to efficiently remove...Read more
