The building façade as an active skin: Water bio-remediation through a probiotic layer system
Almpani-Lekka D., (Corresponding) Zavoleas Y.
Topic:
Sustainable water resources management with nature-based solutions
In 2020, the United Nations demonstrated that the building sector is responsible for 38% of all energy-related CO2 emissions [1]. Architecture as an invasive practice, bears a responsibility and the capacity to minimize its negative ecological impact. This study investigates alternative...Read more

Wetting study of PVDF - carbon nanodiscs membranes for water treatment applications via membrane distillation
(Corresponding) Tournis I., Panagiotaki K., Sideratou Z., Kouvelos E., (Corresponding) Sapalidis A.
Topic:
Water treatment
Since 80’s, membrane distillation has been identified as a promising water treatment process in various wastewater treatments, such as desalination brine, textile, radioactive and oily wastewater.[1] The demand for membranes with stable flux and prolonged lifespan especially in challenging...Read more
Response of the lichen Evernia prunastri to exposure of antibiotic
(Corresponding) Sujetovienė G., Miškelytė D., Dikšaitytė A., Januškaitienė I., Kacienė G., Žaltauskaitė J.
Topic:
Biomonitoring
Tetracycline antibiotics are one of the main groups of antibiotics widely used in medicine and a major environmental concern. However, the effects on non-target organisms are not well studied. Thalli of lichens artificially were exposed to high levels tetracycline to determine the impact on...Read more
Advancements, Design, and Improvement Strategies for Modern-era Membranes for the Treatment of Wastewater
(Corresponding) Khan N., (Corresponding) Santos ., Afzal K., Simranjeet S.
Topic:
Water management in arid communities/places
Membranes are widely used in industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and wastewater treatment plants, among others, to purify and recycle water, separate dissolved substances from the environment, such as organic and inorganic contaminants, and recover valuable materials...Read more
