Desalinated Water and Power for a Seaside Hotel: A Case Study using Off-grid Solar and Wind

Tounsi A., Ghamgui M., (Corresponding) Tadeo F.
Topic: 
Environmental management and policies
A hybrid combination of solar and wind energies for a remote seaside hotel is analyzed. More specifically, a hotel in Hammamet, Tunisia, powered by photovoltaic panels and a wind turbine is evaluated, with water generated by desalination using reverse osmosis. This isolated accommodation...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

Chemical And Isotopic Characterization Of The Thermal Fluids In The South-western Margin of the Loutros-Feres-Soufli Tertiary Basin in Northern Greece. Case Study: Geothermal Area of Aristino

Dalampakis P., Spyridonos E., (Corresponding) Tassi M., Karalis P., Dotsika E., Pagonis G.
Topic: 
Hydrology and water resources
In this work we examine the hydrochemical and isotopic characteristics of the thermal fluids in the Aristino geothermal area in the southwestern margin of the Loutros-Feres-Soufli Tertiary basin (LFS), which is located west of Evros river in Northeastern Greece, in order to identify their possible...Read more

Chemical And Isotopic Characterization Of The Thermal Fluids Emerging From Nestos River Delta Basin in North Greece

Tassi M., (Corresponding) Karalis P., Dalampakis P., Spyridonos E., Diamantopoulos G., Dotsika E., Pagonis G.
Topic: 
Hydrology and water resources
In this work we study the isotopic and hydrochemical properties of waters emerging from Nestos river delta basin (Erasmio, Eratio and Myrodato), which is forming the continental margin of the broader graben type basin of Prinos that includes the Nestos delta and the offshore extension between...Read more

Treatment and Reuse of Industrial Wastewater Using Reverse Osmosis System

(Corresponding) Ahmadzadeh-Kaleybar F., Emamifar M., Bagheri M.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
From a few years ago, using reverse osmosis in water refinery and desalination, in order to provide clean water for necessary requirements has been considered as a common method. In the current study, the reverse osmosis, in the water refinery process of Miyaneh steel factory (northwest of Iran)...Read more

QSight-based method for the detection and quantification of polar contaminants in drinking water

(Corresponding) Mattern D., Stefan E., Becker T., Garaguso I.
Topic: 
Drinking water safety
An analytical method covering various difficult polar contaminats such as chlorate, bromate, bromide, glyphosate and AMPA was successfully developed utilizing direct injection and ion exchange columns. Linearity could be obtained for each compound, with a dynamic range of 2-3 magnitudes and...Read more

Environmental Burdens of a Large Water Treatment Plant: The Operational Phase

(Corresponding) Sahin Akkurt H., Elginoz N., Iskender G., Germirli Babuna F.
Topic: 
Water treatment
Being a metropolis, Istanbul requires a well-functioning urban service system. Water supply is among the most important infrastructures in this city that has around 15-16 million habitants. There are many water treatment plants all around Istanbul to facilitate healthy water supply to people. On...Read more

Modelling the Evaporation Flux from Shallow Sandy Aquifers

(Corresponding) Al-Suwaiyan M.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
A mathematical model based on Richard’s equation and the soil hydraulic properties was developed in order to understand the influence of the soil depth to the water table on the maximum potential evaporative flux through the unsaturated zone. The model was applied on shallow aquifers using...Read more

SIMULATION AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF OWC DEVICE OPERATING IN COASTAL REGIONS

(Corresponding) Belibassakis K., Magkouris A., Rusu E.
Topic: 
Energy technologies and sustainability
Wave energy converters are constantly being deployed in nearshore and coastal areas characterized by increased wave potential. The performance of the devices installed in the nearshore and coastal environment, where the sea bottom terrain may present significant variations, can be evaluated by...Read more

On the Fenton oxidation of polystyrene microplastics

(Corresponding) Munoz M., Ortiz D., Nieto-Sandoval J., Romera-Castillo C., de Pedro Z., Casas J.
Topic: 
Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies
This work aims at evaluating the fate of polystyrene (PS) microplastics along Fenton oxidation. Experiments were carried out under relatively severe operating conditions (80 ºC) given the high persistence of these solids to oxidation. Slight mass losses (up to 10%) were found after the Fenton...Read more
