The influence of methane emission and hard coal production on air quality and greenhouse effect in 1994-2017 in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin (Poland)

(Corresponding) Dreger M.
Topic: 
Air pollution
The Upper Silesian Coal Basin (USCB) is the largest coal basin in Poland and one of the largest in Europe. It is the most industrialized region in Poland. The main natural resource and energy raw material is hard coal which was produced by 65 mines in the early nineties. The USCB geology is very...Read more

Clean Electro-mobility Solutions Only Using Green Energy Input

(Corresponding) KALDELLIS J., SPYROPOULOS G., KONDILI E., TRIANTAFYLLOU A.
Topic: 
Energy technologies and sustainability
The utilization of electrical cars is considered as the new tool against the serious problems resulting from the oil products consumption of the transportation sector. Actually, many people believe that the adoption of electro-mobility, especially in the urban areas or small-medium size islands, is...Read more

Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Natural and Artificial Lakes in Western Macedonia, Greece

TSIOPTSIAS C., SAMIOTIS G., KAKLIDIS N., PEKRIDIS G., (Corresponding) AMANATIDOU E.
Topic: 
Lakes, rivers, estuaries and ecosystem health
Formation of artificial lakes is a common practice for hydroelectric power generation. Hydroelectricity is considered to be a green and renewable energy source in terms of factory operation. However, hydroelectricity generation may have environmental impact arisen from greenhouse gas (GHG)...Read more

The limitation of the methane (CH4) emission in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin as a result of the Polish Mining Group closing program.

Dreger M.
Topic: 
Air pollution
Hard coal mining is responsible for 9% of the worldwide methane emission to the atmosphere. Methane is the second strongest greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide, but its radiative power is 25-30 times stronger than the radiative power of CO2 .In the Polish reality, hard coal mining is one of the...Read more

Greenhouse gases in the urban environment of Athens, trends and sources

(Corresponding) Bougiatioti A., Dimitriou K., Ramonet M., Pierros F., Michalopoulos P., Liakakou E., Solomos S., Quehe P., Delmotte M., Gerasopoulos E., Kanadikou M., Mihalopoulos N.
Topic: 
Climpact: national network for climate change and its impacts
Yearlong greenhouse gases (CO2 and CH4) concentration measurements were performed for the first time in the city of Athens, from 21/12/2018 to 31/12/2019, and analyzed in relation to atmospheric levels, wind direction at a local, regional and long-range transport scale. Clear diurnal and seasonal...Read more

Ground based integrated path differential absorption sensor for remote sensing of CO2, CH4 and H2O atmospheric greenhouse gases

(Corresponding) Panagiotis S., Psyllakis G., Samartzis P., Velegrakis M.
Topic: 
Environmental odour, monitoring and control
An autonomous, ground-based, integrated path, differential absorption light detection (IPDA) system is presented, capable of measuring multiple gases concentration in the atmosphere. The device was developed to monitor small scale locations with high greenhouse gases emissions and is equipped with...Read more

Calculating Carbon Footprint in ports through a new Standard Tool: case study applications

Azarkamand S., Ferré G., (Corresponding) Darbra R.
Topic: 
Environmental impact of maritime transport
One of the main environmental problems in ports is Climate Change and its consequences. Since 1979, many international organizations have been working to control Climate Change. A literature review and a practical research were carried out to set up the basis to create a tool. These studies showed...Read more

Effects of light stress on wheat and rye varieties grain composition

Franco-Grandas T., Álvarez-López V., (Corresponding) Mosquera-Losada M.
Topic: 
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Integrating woody perennials and agricultural crops combined is a centuries-old practice, nowadays called agroforestry. Because agroforestry is being promoted by public administrations, it is essential to obtain scientific knowledge about the effect of different factors (e.g. tree shade) on crop...Read more

Sustainable treatment of air pollutants by moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) coupled with algae photobioreactor (APBR)

Pahunang R., (Corresponding) Zarra T., Oliva G., Senatore V., Belgiorno V., Ballesteros F., (Corresponding) Naddeo V.
Topic: 
Environmental odour, monitoring and control
The presence of high concentrations of VOCs in the atmosphere can lead to negative consequences for humans and the environment. The treatment of these compounds is thus necessary before their release into the atmosphere. In the study, an advanced moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) coupled with an...Read more

DETERMINATION OF GREENHOUSE GASES EMISSIONS FROM PMDI PRODUCTS IN GREECE

(Corresponding) Glytsos T., Mammi-Galani E., Chalvatzaki E., Korkontzelou A., Letsios V., Alexandrakis S., Lazaridis M.
Topic: 
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
The focus of the current study is on the estimation of greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions from pressurized Metered Dose Inhalers (pMDIs) products in Greece. The emissions are expressed as carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq). The total emissions of the pMDIs were estimated at 47.53 kt CO2eq and they...Read more
