For Municipal Solid Waste Management in Greece

Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity Article Description and Economic Evaluation of a “Zero-Waste Mortar-Producing Process” for Municipal Solid Waste Management in Greece Alexandros Sikalidis 1,2 and Christina Emmanouil 3,* 1 Amsterdam Business School, Accounting Section, University of Amsterdam, 1012 WX Amsterdam, The Netherlands 2 Faculty of Economics, Business and Legal Studies, International Hellenic University, 57001 Thessaloniki, Greece 3 School of Spatial Planning and Development, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, 54124 Thessaloniki, Greece * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +30-2310-995638 Received: 2 July 2019; Accepted: 19 July 2019; Published: 23 July 2019 Abstract: The constant increase of municipal solid wastes (MSW) as well as their daily management pose a major challenge to European countries. A significant percentage of MSW originates from household activities. In this study we calculate the costs of setting up and running a zero-waste mortar-producing (ZWMP) process utilizing MSW in Northern Greece. The process is based on a thermal co-processing of properly dried and processed MSW with raw materials (limestone, clay materials, silicates and iron oxides) needed for the production of clinker and consequently of mortar in accordance with the Greek Patent 1003333, which has been proven to be an environmentally friendly process. According to our estimations, the amount of MSW generated in Central Macedonia, Western Macedonia and Eastern Macedonia and Thrace regions, which is conservatively estimated at 1,270,000 t/y for the year 2020 if recycling schemes in Greece are not greatly ameliorated, may sustain six ZWMP plants while offering considerable environmental benefits. This work can be applied to many cities and areas, especially when their population generates MSW at the level of 200,000 t/y, hence requiring one ZWMP plant for processing.

Papadopoulos, Chair This research project examines the appearance and proliferation of some of the earliest cremation burials in Europe in the context of the prehistoric north Aegean. Using archaeological and osteological evidence from the region between the Pindos mountains and Evros river in northern Greece, this study examines the formation of death rituals, the role of landscape in the emergence of cemeteries, and expressions of social identities against the backdrop of diachronic change and synchronic variation. I draw on a rich and diverse record of mortuary practices to examine the co-existence of cremation and inhumation rites from the beginnings of farming in the Neolithic period
The GEOLOGY of ALMOPIA SPELEOPARK

Scientific Annals, School of Geology Special volume 98 27-31 Thessaloniki, 2006 Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH) THE GEOLOGY OF ALMOPIA SPELEOPARK George ElEftHEriadis1 Abstract: The Almopia Speleopark is located on the boundary of two geological zones: the Almopia (Axios) zone eastwards and the Pelagonian zone westwards. The Almopia zone in the area of study is comprised of metamorphic rocks (schists, marbles and cipolines), ophiolites, limestones and clastic formations whereas the Pelagonian zone consist of carbonate rocks of Triassic-Jurassic age, sediments of Upper Cretaceous age and flysch of Upper Maastrictian-Lower Paleocene. In the area there are also travertine deposits of signifi- cant quantity and excellent quality. The seismicity in the area can be considered as not significant. Key words: Almopia, Speleopark, geology, volcanology, seismicity. INTRODUCTION The Almopia area geotectonicaly belongs to the Almopia zone, which together with the Peonia and Paikon zones constitute the old Axios (Vardar) zone (Μercier, 1968). The Axios zone Kossmat,( 1924) is situated between the Pelagonian massif to the west and the Serbo-Macedonian massif to the east. The Almopia and Peonia zones, con- stituting the westernmost and easternmost parts of the Axios zone, respectively, were deep-water oceans sepa- rated by the shallow ocean of the Paikon zone, consisting of thick carbonate rocks of mainly Triassic to Cretaceous age.The Almopia zone is characterized by huge masses of ophiolites (Bebien et al., 1994). The Almopia zone was deformed during two oro- genic periods: the Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous and the Upper Cretaceous-Middle Eocene. During the first period the Almopia ocean closed, the Almopia zone emerged temporary until the Middle-Upper Cretaceous transgression and the ophiolitic rocks overthrusted on the Pelagonian platform westwards (Μercier, 1968).
The Shaping of the New Macedonia (1798-1870)

VIII. The shaping of the new Macedonia (1798-1870) by Ioannis Koliopoulos 1. Introduction Macedonia, both the ancient historical Greek land and the modern geographical region known by that name, has been perhaps one of the most heavily discussed countries in the world. In the more than two centuries since the representatives of revolutionary France introduced into western insular and continental Greece the ideas and slogans that fostered nationalism, the ancient Greek country has been the subject of inquiry, and the object of myth-making, on the part of archaeologists, historians, ethnologists, political scientists, social anthropologists, geographers and anthropogeographers, journalists and politicians. The changing face of the ancient country and its modern sequel, as recorded in the testimonies and studies of those who have applied themselves to the subject, is the focus of this present work. Since the time, two centuries ago, when the world’s attention was first directed to it, the issue of the future of this ancient Greek land – the “Macedonian Question” as it was called – stirred the interest or attracted the involvement of scientists, journalists, diplomats and politicians, who moulded and remoulded its features. The periodical cri- ses in the Macedonian Question brought to the fore important researchers and generated weighty studies, which, however, with few exceptions, put forward aspects and charac- teristics of Macedonia that did not always correspond to the reality and that served a variety of expediencies. This militancy on the part of many of those who concerned themselves with the ancient country and its modern sequel was, of course, inevitable, given that all or part of that land was claimed by other peoples of south-eastern Europe as well as the Greeks.

The abundance of the cave bear remains is remarkable. The large mammalian associated fauna comprises of Ursus ingres sus, Crocuta crocuta spelaea, Panthera leo spelaea, Panthera pardus, Vulpes vulpes, Canis lupus, Meles meles, mustelids, Bos primigenius, Capra ibex, Cervus elaphus and Dama dama, as well as of 25 species of micro- mammals, excluding bats. This excavation in the site during 1992-2006 involved in total: 90 participants (researchers, students and co-operators) in 12 systematic excavation seasons, 34 excavated squares with a total of 206 levels, resulting in 15 thousand specimens of large mammals and thousands of specimens of micromammals from the sieving procedure. The research on the cave bear continues with new techniques afforded by the use of the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) in milk carnassials, as well as in milk ca- nines. The bear teeth and the metapodials are also discussed as well as comparisons between Ursus ingressus from Loutra and from Gamssulzen Cave in Upper Austria, the cave that is usually used as the standard for comparisons within the cave bear group. Key words: Late Pleistocene Cave Fauna, Stratigraphy, Loutra Arideas, Macedonia, Greece. INTRODUCtion situated on the slopes of the Voras Mt.
Active Faults in North Greece

The Greek Database of Seismogenic Sources (GreDaSS): state-of-the-art for northern Greece. Caputo R.*, Chatzipetros A.°, Pavlides S.° and Sboras S.* *) Department of Earth Sciences, University of Ferrara, Italy °) Department of Geology, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece Abstract The Greek Database of Seismogenic Sources (GreDaSS) is a repository of geological, tectonic and active fault data for the Greek territory and its surroundings. In this paper, we present the state-of- the-art of an on-going project devoted to the building of GreDaSS, which represents the results of decades of investigations by the authors and a myriad of other researchers working on the active tectonics of the broader Aegean Region. The principal aim of this international project is to create a homogenized framework of all data relevant to the seismotectonics, and especially the seismic hazard assessment, of Greece and its surroundings as well as a common research platform for performing seismic hazard analyses, modelling and scenarios from specific seismogenic structures. In particular, we introduce and synthetically describe the results obtained (and included in the database) up to date relative to the northern sector of continental Greece and Aegean Sea. As a first step we collected all available data (both published and unpublished) relative to the historical and instrumental seismicity determining the causative faults. Following the experience of recent 'surprising' earthquakes (e.g. 1995 Kozani and 1999 Athens), we realized the deficiency of such approach and decided to include in GreDaSS also active faults (i.e. seismogenic sources) recognized on the basis of geological, structural, morphotectonic, palaeoseismological and geophysical investigations.
