Phosphorus (P) is an essential, finite resource whose geological, economic, and geopolitical accessibility may become critical in the future. Because P losses from agriculture, sewage and waste have serious environmental impacts such as eutrophication, it ...
The landfill of Colliare is situated on the left bank of the river « la Venoge », at the place of a former gravel pit in the municipality of Penthaz. It was exploited until 1995 and many different wastes were deposited in it, such as incineration slag of h ...
Industrial symbiosis describes the mutualistic interaction of dif- ferent industries for beneficial reuse of waste flows or energy cascading that results in a more resource-efficient production system and fewer adverse environmental impacts. Research shows ...
In a few years, safe and definitive solutions should be ready to manage large quantities of high-level radioactive waste. Deep geological repository involving a multi-barrier system constitutes one of the most promising options to isolate such waste from t ...
Global contamination and toxic effects of persistent toxic substances (PTSs) have been an emerging environmental issue and have received considerable attention during the past four decades. The rapid agricultural and industrial growths as well as the expan ...
Repositories in deep clay geological formations are considered one of the most promising solutions for a sustainable management of High Level radioactive Waste (HLW). The Swiss HLW disposal concept consists in horizontal tunnels excavated at high depth in ...

Le batillage résulte du déferlement des vagues générées par le passage d’une embarcation. Les effets qui en résultent sur le milieu aquatique sont l’érosion des berges et la destruction des habitats. Sur le canton de Genève, une grande partie des déchets m ...
Efficient utilization of available resources for a particular machine tool technology is an important aspect of sustainable manufacturing. The objective of this paper is to present a method for efficient resource process planning for a Wire EDM Machine Too ...
