Microbiological diversity and microbial related risks at Wawel Royal Castle in Krakow, Poland

(Corresponding) Pyzik A., Dyda M., Wilkojc E., Winiewicz-Wolska J.

Topic:

Pollution control and public health

Microorganisms are known to colonize and modify various environments, including cultural heritage buildings. Anthropogenic indoor environments often provides specific conditions for microbial growth e.g. microclimatic parameters. These conditions are potentially easy to control thus it is advisable...Read more

MONITORING OF TREATED DOMESTIC WASTE WATER QUALITY

Poulli K., (Corresponding) Ero R., Kozakou S., Michael N., Demetriou E., Christofidou M., Aletrari M.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Cyprus is experiencing severe water supply deficiency. Particularly in summer months the situation is aggravated mainly due to low precipitation, high evaporation and increased demands for irrigation and tourisms. The use of treated wastewaters for environmental purposes such as recharging aquifers...Read more

TELECOMMUNICATION SIGNALS CAN CAUSE BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS: OUR 20 YEARS' STUDIES IN LIVING SYSTEMS

(Corresponding) MARGARITIS L.

Topic:

The non ionizing radiation from wireless technology: a 21 century revolution or a global pollution and health hazard

The big bang of telecommunication initiated a few decades ago has caused gradually an enormous increase of the electromagnetic pollution in the environment, the work place and home as well as the personal surrounding of every user. The research of our Electromagnetic Biology Laboratory is focused...Read more

Removal of PFAS from wastewater by bio-waste adsorbent: material characterization and adsorption kinetic study

(Corresponding) Bavasso I., Bracciale M., Sbardella F., Di Palma L., Marco S.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are considered emerging contaminants and have been increased their attention due to their distribution in water body. These compounds are acid and characterized by a thermal stability to make them resistant to degradation processes. Activities such as...Read more

Species prioritization for recovery potential estimation. Case of study: Seasonally dry tropical forest at an inter Andean valley of Cauca River, South America

(Corresponding) Alvarado-Solano D., Otero J., Šarapatka B.

Topic:

Enviornmental data analysis and modelling

Seasonally dry tropical forest (SDTF) at the Colombian inter-Andean valley of Cauca River (IVCR) has been under constant transformation. Following the current SDTF’s global distribution, it has remained as small and sparse fragments embedded in an anthropogenic landscape. Information regarding the...Read more

Sustainable landscapes: restoration and land use planning in an adaptive approach to climate change and desertification. Case study of Inter-Andean Valley of Cauca River in Colombia

(Corresponding) Alvarado-Solano D., Otero J., Šarapatka B.

Topic:

Spatial environmental planning

The inter-Andean valley of Cauca River (IVCR) is one of the most industrialized regions in Colombia leading its seasonally dry tropical forest (SDTF) to a fragmented and degraded state. Changes in land cover may alter the climatic and hydrological patterns. In the period 1984 – 2014, 26% of natural...Read more

Development and Validation of a multistep derivatization method for the determination of polar species in organic aerosol

Kanellopoulos P., Koukoulakis K., Chrisohou E., Papadakis I., (Corresponding) Bakeas E.

Topic:

Air pollution

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is a significant constituent of airborne fine particles. A multistep derivatization method was developed, optimized, and fully validated for the determination of organic compounds in the atmospheric aerosol with mono- and multi-functional species, with GC/MS. The...Read more

(Corresponding) Dodos G., Deligiannis A., Karonis D., Zannikos F.

Topic:

Circular economy and industrial symbiosis

The economy is gradually transitioning to a circular model that extends resources, reduces waste and requires a great deal of creative thinking. Both established and emerging global economies view waste as a bioresource for our next generation energy, chemicals, or platform molecules and materials...Read more
