Problems related to Ship Recycling IMO Regulations
(Corresponding) Boviatsis M., Alexopoulos A., Polemis D.
Topic:
General
Scrapping market is unique in many respects. The value of its products is more affected by ınternational trade than by shipping economic circles. There are many regulations for the environmentally friendly dismantling of ships. Ship recycling is the eco-friendly method of ship dismantling, it is...Read more

Development of a novel GC-APCI-QTOFMS methodology for the determination of more than 300 organic compounds in Asopos river water samples
Panagopoulou E., Nika M., Damalas D., Koulis G., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.
Topic:
General
The site of interest of this study is Asopos river which is located in Sterea Ellada, north of Athens, and passes through areas where 20% of total Greece industrial production takes place. The extensive installation of industries in the area near the river, and the uncontrolled disposal of...Read more

Screening thousands of emerging contaminants in Asopos river basin by UPLC-QToF-MS
Nikolopoulou V., Nika M., Aalizadeh R., Alygizakis N., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.
Topic:
General
Monitoring activities over several decades have revealed the ubiquitous presence of organic contaminants in environmental compartments. Asopos river basin, located in Sterea Ellada, has been the focus of many environmental studies over the last decades, mainly due to its geomorphology and the...Read more

Determination of more than 2,400 emerging contaminants in apex predators and their prey from European Specimen Banks and Natural History Museums by novel and complementary High Resolution Mass Spectrometry Techniques
Gkotsis G., Alygizakis N., Cincinelli A., Dekker R., Duke G., Glowacka N., Knopf B., Koschorreck J., Martellini T., Movalli P., Nika M., Nikolopoulou V., Rüdel H., Shore R., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N., Treu G., Slobodnik J.
Topic:
General
Overwhelming evidence over many decades has shown that many organic compounds have been released in the environment due to anthropogenic activities. The term “chemicals of emerging concern (CEC)” has been established for chemicals, which are not subjected to marketing restrictions and regulatory...Read more

Determination of Emerging Contaminants in Surface Water Resources of EYDAP following wide-scope Target and Non-Target Screening
Nikolopoulou V., Nika M., Aalizadeh R., Miskaki P., Kaloudis T., Deftereos N., Avagianos C., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.
Topic:
General
The aim of the study was to perform extended monitoring of emerging contaminants in the water samples from three reservoirs of drinking water of EYDAP, Evinos, Mornos and Marathonas. Solid-Phase Extraction (SPE) by mixed-mode sorbent was used during the sample preparation to ensure the extraction...Read more

Influence of pH on the toxicity, uptake and biotransformation potential of citalopram in zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos
Damalas D., Panagopoulou E., Aalizadeh R., Schweizer M., (Corresponding) Heid C., KÖHLER H., OHË P., TRIEBSKORN R., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.
Topic:
General
The contamination of the aquatic environment has raised concerns in the scientific community and regulatory authorities. Given the large number of xenobiotics, for most of them there is a striking deficit in the literature concerning their adverse effects on aquatic organisms. Citalopram (CTR) is a...Read more
The role of End of Waste Criteria in the Framework of Circular Economy Strategy
(Corresponding) Zorpas A.
Topic:
General
More than 1.8 billion tonnes of waste are produced each year in Europe. This equals to 3.5 t per person and are mainly produced from commercial activities (e.g. shops, hospitals, restaurants), industry (e.g. clothes manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies), agriculture (e.g. slurry), construction...Read more
