Development of an emission inventory for commercial cooking in Attica
(Corresponding) Fameli K., Kladakis A., Assimakopoulos V.
Topic:
Air pollution
The aim of this research was to estimate the pollutants that are emitted from the fuels used by the dominated types of commercial restaurants, due to their cooking demands. The study was carried out for the region of Attica; however, the methodology can be applied in many urban areas. For the...Read more
Is Greece greener than the data shows? Calculation of Green GDP and comparison with neighboring countries
(Corresponding) Stjepanović S., Škare M., Tomić D.
Topic:
Environmental data analysis and modelling
Is Greece greener than the current economic indicators show? GDP is used as the leading economic indicator of economic growth and progress. GDP as a measure, among other things, lacks an environmental component. In this paper, we have developed a Green GDP for Greece and neighboring countries and...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

Design of Road-Side Barriers to Mitigate Air Pollution near Roads
(Corresponding) Huertas J., Aguirre J., Lopez O., Lopez C.
Topic:
Air pollution
The effects of using solid barriers on the dispersion of air pollutants emitted from the traffic of vehicles on roads located over flat areas were quantified, aiming to identify the geometry that maximizes the mitigation effect of air pollution near the road at the lowest barrier cost. Toward that...Read more
Keywords:
CFD; near road emissions; solid barriers; gas-phase pollutants; air pollution mitigation
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

DETERMINATION OF GREENHOUSE GASES EMISSIONS FROM PMDI PRODUCTS IN GREECE
(Corresponding) Glytsos T., Mammi-Galani E., Chalvatzaki E., Korkontzelou A., Letsios V., Alexandrakis S., Lazaridis M.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
The focus of the current study is on the estimation of greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions from pressurized Metered Dose Inhalers (pMDIs) products in Greece. The emissions are expressed as carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq). The total emissions of the pMDIs were estimated at 47.53 kt CO2eq and they...Read more
