Trace Metals in the water column of the coastal zone in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aqaba

Tzempelikou E., Parinos C., Zeri C., Iliakis S., Pavlidou A., (Corresponding) Abualnaja Y.

Topic:

Heavy metals in the environment

In this study trace metals concentrations in the water column are presented along the coastal zone of the Gulf of Aqaba and the Red Sea (Saudi Arabia). This is a baseline assessment of the metal pollution status of the water using trace metals (Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) measurements obtained...Read more

Enabling sustainability and resilience in industries through the value chains’ circularity and digitalisation

(Corresponding) Aryblia M., Sarantinoudis N., Tsinarakis G., Arampatzis G.

Topic:

CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND BIOECONOMY

Living for the last decades in a linear world has emerged the necessity for resources reduction, reuse, and recycling, leaving behind the “take-make-waste” economic model and jumping over towards a cyclical ecologic system. Especially for the industrial environments, the efficient management of...Read more

A comprehensive monitoring approach to evaluate the impact of an urban landfill on a naturally reducing aquifer

(Corresponding) Preziosi E., Parrone D., Frollini E., Ciotoli G., Sciarra A., Ruggiero L., Ghergo S.

Topic:

Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation

The processes leading to high levels of arsenic, iron, and manganese in a naturally reducing aquifer beneath a landfill are investigated. Traditional groundwater monitoring (physical-chemical parameters, major and trace inorganic compounds, organic compounds) has been complemented with the analysis...Read more
