Artificial Intelligence in Public Administration for Environmental Sustainability: An Integrative Review of Research and Practice
(Corresponding) Aristovnik A., Ravšelj D., Babšek M.
Topic:
6. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN ENVIRONMENTAL APPLICATIONS
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly utilized in public administration as a strategic enabler for achieving environmental sustainability and advancing progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This study presents an integrative review of 3,107 peer-reviewed publications...Read more

Steps to Promote Agrifood Twin Transitions: From Identifying Innovation Paths to Enhancing Future Competencies
Charatsari C., Lioutas E., Sergaki P., Nastis S., (Corresponding) Michailidis A.
Topic:
12. CLIMATE CHANGE
Twin transitions aim to address grand challenges, such as climate change and food insecurity, through simultaneous systemic shifts toward more sustainable and digitalized production models. In this work, we present three key steps for supporting twin transitions. The first concerns the...Read more
Hydrogen Generation from Wastewater-Derived Organics via Solar Photocatalysis Using Low-Cost Cu-TiO₂ Composites
(Corresponding) Clarizia L.
Topic:
1. WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND REUSE
Recent research has focused on developing Cu-based TiO₂ photocatalysts for sustainable hydrogen production via solar photoreforming of organic compounds typically present in urban and industrial wastewater. Copper, either in solution or integrated into TiO₂, forms heterojunctions that enhance...Read more
Performance Of Preoxidation And Coagulation In Arsenic Removal From Groundwater For Human Consumption In A Small Rural Community In Western Romania
(Corresponding) Pacala A., Neidoni D., Negrea S., Tenea A., Dinu C., Stefanescu M.
Topic:
1. WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND REUSE
Health problems caused by high arsenic concentrations (over 200 μg/L) in groundwater sources in the Pannonian Basin (Hungary, Romania, Croatia, Serbia) have become a major concern for researchers and environmental experts. This paper evaluates the effect of the preoxidation (with hypochlorite)/...Read more
Removal of organic micropollutants by quaternary treatments controlled by optical sensors
Marino L., Gagliano E., Santoro D., Roccaro P.
Topic:
1. WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND REUSE
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are widely applied to degrade persistent organic pollutants. In view of new stringent regulations on organic micropollutants, the real-time monitoring of AOPs became crucial to fulfil the high quality standards over time. A fluorescence sensor was employed to...Read more
Optimized hydrodynamic cavitation-based Pretreatment Strategies to enhance residual Biogas Yield from Solid Digestate and Struvite Recovery from Liquid Fraction
(Corresponding) Nayak J., Khan A., Ranade V., Collins M.
Topic:
11. ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES
Digestate valorisation is essential for improving the sustainability and efficiency of anaerobic digestion systems. This study explores an integrated approach combining hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) pretreatment of the solid fraction with struvite precipitation from the liquid fraction to enhance...Read more
Geocoding of fire events in the mountainous region of Ymittos using GIS
(Corresponding) Kelesidi K., Tsouchlaraki A.
Topic:
12. CLIMATE CHANGE
Wildfires in Greece constitute a major environmental challenge with significant ecological, economic, and social impacts. In recent years, their frequency and intensity have increased due to climate change, urban expansion, and lack of integrated planning, making effective management a critical...Read more
Adsorption of Ciprofloxacin by Sugarcane Bagasse Activated Biochar in Aqueous Solution
(Corresponding) Ubiña L., Guia R., Aquino C., Somera L., Balela M., Beltran A., Cornista J., Bautista-Patacsil L.
Topic:
1. WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND REUSE
Antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin (CIP) in wastewater pose a significant and pressing concern as an emerging contaminant. Conventional wastewater treatments are not optimized to effectively remove antibiotics, resulting in their persistence in bodies of water and significantly contributing to a...Read more
Keywords:
Emerging Contaminants of Concern, Ciprofloxacin, Antimicrobial Resistance, Activated Biochar, Adsorption
Investigation of waste-derived adsorbents for removal of NORM and non-regulated elements from mining wastewater
(Corresponding) Avsar D., Pelkonen M., Gajendra N., Grønvold R., Angyus B., Dinis M., Vila M., Yilmaz D., Senila M., Ferrando-Climent L.
Topic:
1. WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND REUSE
The growing demand for rare earth elements (REEs) has led to an increase in mining activities, raising significant environmental concerns, particularly related to wastewater (WW) management. Mining WW can contain a complex mixture of contaminants, including naturally occurring radioactive materials...Read more
Optimizing biological consortia for mining wastewater treatment
(Corresponding) Gajendra N., (Corresponding) Török A., Avsar D., Pelkonen M., Grønvold R., Dinis M., Vila M., Yilmaz D., Levei E., Ferrando-Climent L.
Topic:
1. WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND REUSE
Industrial processes, such as the mineral extraction of raw materials, have been in crucial focus because of the current drive towards greener and more sustainable energy sources. Hence, the production workflow of critical elements, such as rare earth elements (REEs), is reassessed to identify less...Read more
