Comparative studies of the equilibrium adsorption of CO2 onto coal ash zeolites Na-X and Na-Ca-X
(Corresponding) Boycheva S., Marinov I., Miteva S., Zgureva D.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Coal-fired Thermal Power Plants (TPPs) are the main source of greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere, but they also generate huge amounts of solid by-products, including fly ash (FA). A modern strategy for sustainable energy production is to improve the ecology of the TPPs by developing...Read more

Odorous gases monitoring on industrial sites and algae decomposition using Cairsens smart sensors
(Corresponding) BEN DAOUD A., Laplagne J., AKIKI R., AFLALO S. S.
Topic:
Environmental odour, monitoring and control
The appearance of natural odors sources (Sargassum beaching events) or odors generated by the human activity (integration of industrial sites in increasing urban environment and residential encroachment into previously non-resident areas) represent a major challenge for municipalities. Combined...Read more
Ultrafine and nanoparticles emissions from hospital waste incineration: characterization and chemical speciation.
(Corresponding) Cernuschi S., Lonati G., Ozgen S., Signorini S.
Topic:
Air pollution
Focus on atmospheric particulate matter has recently steadily shifted towards finer size fractions, namely those particles with dimensions included from 2.5 µm down to the minimum practical detection limit of few nm. These fractions share the higher burden of health related effects arising from...Read more
Challenging the belief that organic waste and plastic should be diverted from landfill on climate change grounds:
(Corresponding) Hutton B., Norrish M., Horan E.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Abstract Landfill is generally believed to have higher greenhouse gas emissions than composting or waste-to-energy. The EU Landfill Directive requires nations to progressively divert biodegradable waste away from landfill. Waste disposal in landfill is at the bottom of its Waste Hierarchy. Many...Read more
A comparative analysis between EU MRV and IMO DCS – the need to adopt a harmonised regulatory system
(Corresponding) Boviatsis M., Tselentis B.
Topic:
Environmental impact of maritime transport
This paper analyses and compares the two methods proposed for monitoring, reporting and verifying CO2 emissions from shipping, namely the European Union MRV Regulation (EU 2015/757) and the Global Data Collection System of the IMO for fuel oil consumption of ships adopted as an amendment to MARPOL...Read more

Necessity of Full Implementation of Type Approval for Non Road Mobile Machinery in the Republic of Croatia
(Corresponding) Lulic Z., Sraga V., Šagi G., Ilincic P.
Topic:
Air pollution
Along with continuous progress in the reduction of emissions from road vehicles, the Non-Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM) becomes a more and more important source of emissions.
Namely, although the EU Regulation 2016/1628 for NRMM introduces the latest limit emission values known as Stage V, their...Read more

Development of an emission inventory for commercial cooking in Attica
(Corresponding) Fameli K., Kladakis A., Assimakopoulos V.
Topic:
Air pollution
The aim of this research was to estimate the pollutants that are emitted from the fuels used by the dominated types of commercial restaurants, due to their cooking demands. The study was carried out for the region of Attica; however, the methodology can be applied in many urban areas. For the...Read more
Is Greece greener than the data shows? Calculation of Green GDP and comparison with neighboring countries
(Corresponding) Stjepanović S., Škare M., Tomić D.
Topic:
Environmental data analysis and modelling
Is Greece greener than the current economic indicators show? GDP is used as the leading economic indicator of economic growth and progress. GDP as a measure, among other things, lacks an environmental component. In this paper, we have developed a Green GDP for Greece and neighboring countries and...Read more

Assessing the Environmental Impact of Maritime Transport for the Port of Mytilene with a Focus on the Emission Accounting of the Port of Arrival
(Corresponding) Kelmalis A., Lekkas D., Vakalis S.
Topic:
Environmental impact of maritime transport
Global accounting of the environmental impact from maritime transport is an ongoing conversation. This study introduces the idea that emissions from open-sea cruising can accounted as stock at the port of arrival. An example is presented for the case of Mytilene (for a single month) where the in-...Read more
Development of a tool for calculating ship air emissions
(Corresponding) Ventikos N., Kalogeropoulos I., Louzis K., (Corresponding) Stamatopoulou E.
Topic:
Environmental impact of maritime transport
This paper describes the development of a ship air emissions calculator, which will be part of the ECOMARPOL platform of the Intelligent Research Infrastructure for Shipping, Supply Chain, Transport and Logistics (EN.I.R.I.S.S.T.). The tool developed with the Python programming language and is...Read more
