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
Sustainable water management in industry using Industrial Water Footprint
(Corresponding) Nydrioti I., Grigoropoulou H.
Topic:
Life cycle analysis (lca)
Large quantities of water are consumed directly or indirectly by production and distribution plants. Industries are rapidly required to comply with the principles of sustainable development through United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), focusing on sustainable water management,...Read more

Stakeholder Mapping & Analysis for Climate Change Adaptation in Greece
(Corresponding) Nydrioti I., Katsiardi P., Chioti D., Sebos I., Assimacopoulos D.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Stakeholder mapping and analysis is essential in Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) projects to assess and identify the needs of stakeholders (SHs). For the mapping of actors involved in adaptation planning and implementation in Greece, a multi-criteria analysis is followed.
The SHs involved in CCA...Read more
Using monk seal faeces as a non-invasive technique to monitor the incidence of microdebris
(Corresponding) Hernandez-Milian G., Tsangaris C., Anestis A., Bundone L., Panou A.
Topic:
Biodibersity conservation
required under the EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive to prevent any harm on marine ecosystems and their biota. Sampling to evaluate effects of marine litter, including microdebris, in top predators is difficult. Usually, microdebris is examined in the gastro-intestinal tract of stranded dead...Read more
Hydro-stratigraphy, Aquifer Characterization and Physiochemical Analysis of District Dera Ghazi Khan Punjab, Pakistan.
(Corresponding) Ullah H., Khalid P., Shah G., Mashwani S., Shafiq W., Din Z.
Topic:
Water treatment
The study area is located in the arid section of Punjab province, Pakistan. The accessibility of freshwater is the main problem in this zone. The area is approximately flat and there are alluvial deposits up to 800 m. Groundwater is not fit for health because of its salinity. Hence, it is essential...Read more

TiO2/Fe2O3 based Composites for Solar-driven Photocatalytic Degradation of Amoxicillin
(Corresponding) dela Rosa F., Papac J., Kovačić M., (Corresponding) Kušić H., Božic A.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
The occurrence of trace amounts of antibiotics in various bodies of water was directly linked to the development of antibiotic resistant pathogens. Recently, Amoxicillin (AMX) was added on the second EU “watch list” based on the proposed European Decision 2018/840/EU. Its presence in drinking water...Read more

Numerical Modelling of Wave Reflection from Port Structures for Reliable Forecasting of Berth Downtime
(Corresponding) Chondros M., Malliouri D., Metallinos A., Papadimitriou A., Karambas T., Makris C., Baltikas V., Kontos Y., Nagkoulis N., Androulidakis Y., Klonaris G., Tsoukala V., Memos C.
Topic:
Marine environment and coastal management
Forecast of wave agitation inside port basins and consequent downtime of berth positions are of utmost importance to make a port “smarter” by efficiently managing its infrastructure. Within Accu-Waves project (http://accuwaves.eu), a decision-making tool is being developed to provide forecast data...Read more

(Corresponding) CHONDROS M., METALLINOS A., PAPADIMITRIOU A., KALPYRI M., MEMOS C., TSOUKALA V.
Topic:
Disaster risk reduction and management
The present paper provides an integrated framework for modelling of coastal inundation, aiming to help coastal communities understand their risks and consequently to prevent the adverse effects to society. The proposed framework involves the implementation and coupling of a suite of sea state...Read more
Modelling the operation of a Water Treatment Plant based on Artificial Neural Networks
(Corresponding) GYPARAKIS S., TRICHAKIS I., VAROUCHAKIS E., DIAMADOPOULOS E.
Topic:
Water treatment
The main purpose of this study is to model the operation of a Drinking Water Treatment Plant (DWTP) using its main operational and water quality parameters in a fast, easy and reliable way. This study is based on a large number of data from recent years (2019-2021). The DWTP has a maximum capacity...Read more
Quality evaluation of composts in the Greek market
(Corresponding) GYPARAKIS S., MARAGKAKI A., MANIOS T.
Topic:
Biowaste
In recent years, many composting products of various organic residues have been placed on the Greek market. Some of the benefits of composting, in addition to protecting the environment, are saving money, reducing wastes, improving soil quality and further complying with EU environmental rules...Read more
