Port Environmental Management Insights 2020

(Corresponding) Darbra R., Wooldridge C., Puig M., Selén V.
Topic: 
Environmental impact of maritime transport
This paper presents the results of research conducted in collaboration with 97 ESPO EcoPorts members that completed the Self-Diagnosis Method (SDM), most of them members of the EU TEN-T network. SDM is a concise checklist against which ports can self-assess their environmental management...Read more

An analysis of THETIS-MRV data on CO2 emissions by Ro-Pax ships

(Corresponding) Kotrikla A., Zouloumis I.
Topic: 
Environmental impact of maritime transport
Maritime transport is responsible for about 2.5% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. These emissions are expected to increase significantly if mitigation measures are not taken. In 2013, European Commission set out a strategy towards reducing GHG emissions from the shipping industry. In this...Read more

Shipyards, Shipbreaking industry and the contribution of the Industry 4.0

(Corresponding) Pournara A., Konstantinidis F.
Topic: 
Environmental impact of maritime transport
Over the past years, a trend to monitor and control the procedures in various industries, has been attempted. It is known that the ship recycling procedure produces waste that turn to be highly dangerous for the environment, while the threat of atmospheric emissions is not yet solved. Today the...Read more

Assessing the Environmental Impact of Maritime Transport for the Port of Mytilene with a Focus on the Emission Accounting of the Port of Arrival

(Corresponding) Kelmalis A., Lekkas D., Vakalis S.
Topic: 
Environmental impact of maritime transport
Global accounting of the environmental impact from maritime transport is an ongoing conversation. This study introduces the idea that emissions from open-sea cruising can accounted as stock at the port of arrival. An example is presented for the case of Mytilene (for a single month) where the in-...Read more

Development of a tool for calculating ship air emissions

(Corresponding) Ventikos N., Kalogeropoulos I., Louzis K., (Corresponding) Stamatopoulou E.
Topic: 
Environmental impact of maritime transport
This paper describes the development of a ship air emissions calculator, which will be part of the ECOMARPOL platform of the Intelligent Research Infrastructure for Shipping, Supply Chain, Transport and Logistics (EN.I.R.I.S.S.T.). The tool developed with the Python programming language and is...Read more

Evaluation of environmental impact assessment factors in maritime industry.

(Corresponding) BOVIATSIS M., Vlachos G., Daniil G.
Topic: 
Environmental impact of maritime transport
The environmental impact of shipping industry includes the pollution caused by vessels to air and water environment. The water pollution is primarily caused by ship accidents and by untreated ballast water. To avoid maritime accidents, a complex system of regulations and safety management...Read more

Calculating Carbon Footprint in ports through a new Standard Tool: case study applications

Azarkamand S., Ferré G., (Corresponding) Darbra R.
Topic: 
Environmental impact of maritime transport
One of the main environmental problems in ports is Climate Change and its consequences. Since 1979, many international organizations have been working to control Climate Change. A literature review and a practical research were carried out to set up the basis to create a tool. These studies showed...Read more
