In this context, a mid-scale decentralized technology concerning wastewater reuse is that of sewer mining. It is based on extracting wastewater from a wastewater system, treating it on-site and producing recycled water applicable for non-potable uses. Despite the technology’s considerable benefits, several challenges hinder its implementation. Sewer mining disturbs biochemical processes inside sewers and affects hydrogen sulfide build-up, resulting in odor, corrosion and health-related problems. In this study, a tool for optimal sewer mining unit placement aiming to minimize hydrogen sulfide production is presented. The Monte-Carlo method coupled with the Environmental Protection Agency’s Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) is used to conduct multiple simulations of the network. The network’s response when sewage is extracted from it is also examined. Additionally, the study deals with optimal pumping scheduling. The overall methodology is applied in a sewer network in Greece providing useful results. It can therefore assist in selecting appropriate locations for sewer mining implementation, with the focus on eliminating hydrogen sulfide-associated problems while simultaneously ensuring that higher water needs are satisfied. Keywords: sewer mining; optimal placement; optimal pumping scheduling; hydrogen sulfide; Monte-Carlo method; SWMM model; decentralized wastewater treatment; water reclamation 1. Introduction Water scarcity problems have intensified considerably over the last decades. Rapid urbanization and population increase [1,2], water pollution and poor water management [3], as well as supply-side impacts of climatic changes [4,5], are the main causes of this problem. Moreover, technology advancement has improved living standards and consequently raised water demand. As existing technologies are often proven inadequate, a need for developing innovative water and wastewater collection, treatment and disposal practices emerges. In this direction, water reuse and reclamation approaches are constantly gaining ground. Reclaimed water is applicable for agricultural, urban and industrial uses and can also supplement existing water resources. Water reclamation helps alleviate the pressures on water resources and preserves environmental water quality. Furthermore, it reduces the costs associated with the development of new infrastructure and water transfer and treatment systems, as well as serves the need for a more sustainable use of water [6,7]. Interest is also focused on decentralized and satellite wastewater treatment technologies as an alternative to central treatment systems [8–10]. Central treatment systems have significant space Water 2018, 10, 200; doi:10.3390/w10020200 www.mdpi.com/journal/water Water 2018, 10, 200 2 of 23 Water 2018, 10, x FOR PEER REVIEW 2 of 23 Interest is also focused on decentralized and satellite wastewater treatment technologies as an and energy requirements which are often difficult to fulfill.

The rapid mapping service of burned areas is based on satellite images of medium resolution which are collected on a 24/7 basis at the satellite stations owned and operated by the Centre (e.g. MODIS, NPP-VIIRS, NOAA/AVHRR, FY), as well as based on high resolution Sentinels II data. The latter are being collected in near real time at the Hellenic Mirror Site, under the collaboration agreement signed between NOA and the European Space Agency (ESA). The daily damages of land use/ land cover types are assessed several times a day at the medium resolution of 500-750 m, while every ten days a more detailed assessment at the much high resolution of 10m is provided.

  • Dionysos and Theatre in Sphettos
    Kazuhiro TaKeuchi / PeTer Wilson Dionysos anD TheaTre in sphettos absTracT: Despite recent and growing interest in the theatre festivals held by the demes of attica —the rural Dionysia— the evidence for these events, which is largely epigraphic and archaeological, is not always well known or understood. This article studies the case of one deme of which this is particularly true — sphettos, situated at the southern foothills of the eastern side of Mt. hymettos. close analysis of the two relevant items —a dedicatory relief and a deme decree— points to the existence in sphettos, by the middle of the fourth century, of performances of tragedy in a theatre which had prohedric seating; funded by choregoi; and possibly organised on a com- petitive basis. The key item of evidence is a fragmentary inscription published only in 1986 (SEG XXXVi 187), analysed here in detail for the first time. This is also the sole testimony to a deme priest of Dionysos in the entire corpus of evidence. he aTTic deme of sPheTTos is absent from all treatments of theatre Tand the cult of Dionysos prior to 2004.1 This is largely because the key item of evidence —a fragmentary deme decree found at philiati, three kilome- tres northwest of modern Koropi (SEG XXXVi 187)— was published only in 1986.2 nonetheless, a relief found on the site of the ancient deme that almost * We should like to express our thanks for suggestions and corrections to eric csapo, hans Goette, andrew hartwig, angelos Matthaiou and an anonymous reader for Lo- geion; and to the australian research council for financial support.

Albani Abstract: This article addresses attitudes towards the medieval past of Athens from modern to postmodern times. Athens, a symbol of classical civilisation, had become a provincial Byzantine centre. From the proclamation of Athens in 1833 as the capital of the modern Greek state to about 1880, archaeological research in Athens focused on classical antiquities at the expense of the preservation of monuments of the Middle Ages, which was regarded as a period of decline. The historical and artistic value ofA thenian medieval monuments has been acknowledged since the late nineteenth century. The international progress of Byzantine studies, the national narrative on the continuity of Greek history, the political concept of the Megali Idea (“Great Idea”), and contemporary state policies based on “diachrony and synergy” contributed to this significant ideological shift.A thens is, however, still renowned and admired worldwide
