Beyond the Grove: Climate-Driven Dispersal of Bactrocera oleae into Adjacent Forest Habitats in Mediterranean Landscapes

(Corresponding) Sentas S., (Corresponding) Stavrianakis G., Demesiotis P., Kizos T.
Topic: 
8. ECOLOGY, ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE AND MANAGEMENT
The olive fly (Bactrocera oleae) is a significant pest in olive cultivation areas, jeopardizing both productivity and quality. Conventional pest management has concentrated on grove perimeters, frequently neglecting the influence of surrounding non-agricultural ecosystems. As climate change...Read more

Treating PAHs in Scrubber Washwater: an Investigation into Fenton-like Advanced Oxidation

(Corresponding) Bautista-Chamizo E., Bermudez-García L., Cavilla-Molina M., Nebot E., Moreno-Andrés J.
Topic: 
1. WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND REUSE
The maritime transport sector primarily uses fuel oil, leading to exhaust gas emissions that contain harmful substances like heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which pose risks to marine ecosystems. Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems (scrubbers) are essential for complying with...Read more

A Novel Automated Water Pretreatment System for Microbial Preconcentration and DNA Extraction Using Monolithic Adsorption Filtration (MAF)

(Corresponding) Moyseos M., Demosthenous P., Seidel M.
Topic: 
1. WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND REUSE
Nowadays, there is an urgent need for rapid and efficient microbial monitoring in water resources. This need has become especially critical due to new EU directives mandating zero pathogen presence in drinking and reuse water. This work introduces an innovative, automated pretreatment system that...Read more

Remediation of Lead-Contaminated Sand through Cerussite Formation and its Effects on Sand Shear Strength Properties

Keykha H., (Corresponding) Mavroulidou M., Bush J., Romiani H.
Topic: 
10. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & WELL-BEING
This study addresses the effect of CO2 syntesised carbonate minerals use in situ to remediate lead (Pb)- contaminated soil and their effect on the soil mechanical properties. A spiked sandy soil sample contaminated with 3,000 ppm of lead nitrate (Pb(NO₃)₂) was subjected to injection of hydroxide (...Read more

Circular Saar - Circular design thinking in the German steel industry

(Corresponding) Wern B., Vielhaber M.
Topic: 
2. CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND BIOECONOMY
The steel industry is currently facing many challenges, such as increasingly expensive energy and the availability of raw materials. At the same time, the transformation of many industrial processes takes time. The circular Saar project addresses these challenges by bringing together research...Read more

Multifactor Simulation and Evaluation of Future Land-Use in the Atlanticas Islands (NW Spain) with a Temporal–Spatial Fusion Network (TSFN)

García-Ontiyuelo M., (Corresponding) Barba-Barragáns D., Acuña-Alonso C., Leal Pacheco F., Sanches Fernandes L., Álvarez X.
Topic: 
5. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT AND POLICY
Land cover change (LULC) in the Atlánticas Islands of Galicia (NW Spain) is reshaping biodiversity and local livelihoods. We apply a Temporal Spatial Fusion Network (TSFN) to hindcast 2015–2020 and forecast 2020–2040 land use and cover under 3 policy scenarios: Benchmark (BS), Development Priority...Read more

NANOCOMPOSITE POLYMERIC MEMBRANES WITH BIO-GRAPHENE AND ENZYMES FOR THE SUSTAINABLE MITIGATION OF BIOFOULING

Alatzoglou C., Patila M., Spyrou S., Giousis T., Polydera A., Mamas P., (Corresponding) Stamatis H.
Topic: 
1. WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND REUSE
n this study, nanocomposite polyethersulfone (PES) membranes were engineered to reduce biofouling during wastewater treatment. Green bio-graphene (bG) was synthesized via liquid-phase exfoliation of graphite in the presence of chitosan, enhancing its antimicrobial properties. Three antimicrobial...Read more
