Feature-based molecular networking and in silico structure annotation/classification of LC-HRMS data unfold the chemodiversity of cyanobacteria in environmental samples.

Iliakopoulou S., Zervou S., Triantis T., Hiskia A., (Corresponding) Kaloudis T.
Topic: 
Emerging pollutants
Freshwater cyanobacteria are prominent sources of structurally diverse natural compounds. Bioactive cyanometabolites are particularly relevant to water quality and public health protection. Non-targeted analysis (NTA) by liquid chromatography - high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) is applied...Read more

Chromium (VI) and nickel removal by resin supported nanomagnetite: column experiments

(Corresponding) Mystrioti C., Papassiopi N., Xenidis A.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Magnetite is a mixed-valent iron oxide with magnetic properties, which is considered as an efficient adsorbent for the removal of Cr(VI) from the aquatic environment. However nanomagnetite possesses difficulties for in situ remediation applications due to clogging effects and high separation cost...Read more

Rule-based Quantification and Mapping of Ecosystem Services Across Three Spatial Scales by Example of Germany

Schlutow A., (Corresponding) Schröder W., Nickel S., Jenssen M.
Topic: 
Environmental data analysis and modelling
The state of ecosystems influences their services for humans. Therefore, the European Union aims to assess and map ecosystem conditions and ecosystem services at the level of the Union and the Member States, in order to implement maintenance or protection measures, if necessary. This paper aims at...Read more

Capability of high resolution satellite images to characterize urban surfaces: spectra comparison and correlation with in field/lab measurements

(Corresponding) Despini F., Costanzini S., Parmeggiani D., Ferrari C., Teggi S., Muscio A., Silvestri M., Rabuffi F., (Corresponding) Musacchio M.
Topic: 
Environmental data analysis and modelling
Environmental remote sensing is an increasingly useful tool for the study of large areas thanks to new sensors with high spatial resolution. These sensors could be able to identify and analyse several urban surfaces, like roofs and pavements. Thus they could be used to study urban areas for several...Read more

Nitrogen & Phosphorous Removal via Anaerobic / Anoxic-Aerobic Processes and Struvite Formation in Mall Wastewater: Performance of Retrofitted Full-Scale Plants

Maceda M., (Corresponding) Rollon A., Sinoy M.
Topic: 
CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND BIOECONOMY
With the new standards on nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) in wastewater discharges from industrial, commercial and municipal wastewater, there is a need for better wastewater treatment systems. Moreover, with the presence of such N and P in wastewater, struvite formation leading to clogging of...Read more

Radon Levels Inside the Caves of Bohol Island, Philippines

(Corresponding) Panlaqui A., Ballesteros F.
Topic: 
Air pollution and health
Radon concentration in various workplaces, including tourist caves, remains higher than the recommended action level by the International Commission on Radiological Protection, which may pose a significant health risk. However, there has been no endeavor to investigate radon concentration in...Read more

Air-19: Reliable monitoring of air quality and microorganisms in postpandemic municipality building

(Corresponding) Katsiri E.
Topic: 
Environmental Sensors for Environmental Monitoring
Nowadays, the link between air pollution and covid-19 is proven beyond doubt in the literature with key pollutants being particulate matter and CO2. Our team has been involved in the development of reliable air quality sensing devices using low-cost sensors measuring particulate matter,...Read more

Use of residues from Eucalyptus Globulus as biosorbents for cadmium removal

(Corresponding) Hansen H., Gutierrez C., Alarcon J., Lazo A., Hansen M., Lazo P., Ortiz R.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
The present work studied the removal of cadmium from aqueous solutions by a series of batch sorption experiments using Eucalyptus Globulus bark and seeds as biosorbents. Both biosorbents showed good results in cadmium removal. The best results were obtained when working with a particle size < 75...Read more
