Risk analysis of pathogenic organisms during soil-aquifer treatment: application to a coastal aquifer in Cyprus
(Corresponding) Panagiotou C., Karaolia P., Papanastasiou P., Sprenger C.
Topic:
Water treatment
A quantitative microbial risk analysis of Ezousa (Cyprus) Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) site is presented herein to evaluate the health risks associated with the pathogenic fraction of three microorganisms: the bacterium Escherichia Coli (E. Coli), the Rotavirus and the protozoan Giardia...Read more
The Implementation of Risk Management processes as a contributing factor to the minimization of shipping disasters through the study of previous shipping accidents
(Corresponding) BOVIATSIS M., Vlachos G.
Topic:
Disaster risk reduction and management
Environmental disasters can maliciously affect property, human lives and even entire ecosystems. The magnitude and extent of such a disaster can lead to uncertainty about who is liable and how the restoration of the environmental damage will be achieved. The implementation of Risk Management...Read more
Improving the homogeneity of a sewage sludge-based phosphorus fertilizer by Monte Carlo simulation of the production chain
Vogt S., (Corresponding) Brueck F., Schnabel K., Weigand H.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Sewage sludge mono-incineration with subsequent phosphorus (P) recovery from the ash is becoming increasingly important in many European countries. Plant operators are facing the challenge to produce a homogeneous P output which needs to conform to fertilizer standards (including trace elements...Read more
Revealing the Hidden Toxin of the Bottom Ashes from Open Municipal Waste Burning
(Corresponding) Ramadan B., Rosmalina R., (Corresponding) Rachman I., (Corresponding) Matsumoto T.
Topic:
Heavy metals in the environment
Bottom ashes caused by open waste burning (OWB) contains a large amount of metal, which can harm human health when exposed directly to human or leached into the waterways. This study aims to reveal the metal in the bottom ashes and its potential health impact. Laboratory field studies which consist...Read more
