The waste to renewable energy source has become a priority in the wastes treatment field. The research goal is not only the wastes destruction but also a better thermal energy recovery from the processes. The municipal solid waste presents a high heterogeneity degree from the dimensional point of...

In order to accurately predict the pollutant concentrations and the plume trajectory in the atmosphere, it is necessary to take into account the effects of interactions between the plume and the surrounding environment. In fact, the atmospheric conditions have a lot of influence on the plume...

Urban air quality nowadays is one of the major environmental issues, due to its impact to various health problems, caused by the daily exposure of the population in dangerous air pollutants. The highest levels of air pollutants are usually observed in street canyons, emitted by urban traffic. To...

A teleconnection pattern has been identified between Eastern Mediterranean and Northwestern Europe in the geopotential fields of the upper troposphere (hereafter will be referred to as EMP) during winter and it seems to play significant role in the large-scale atmospheric circulation over...

This paper presents a biological method for controlling odor problems caused by H2S originating from sewer networks under anaerobic conditions. The proposed method is based on the continuous addition of nitrate which oxidizes dissolved sulphide according to an autotrophic biological procedure and...

The subject of this article is the estimation of quantitative (hydrological) and qualitative parameters in the catchment of Ronnea (1800 Km2, located in south western Sweden) through the application of the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). SWAT is a river basin model that was developed for the...
