Quartiers rhodaniens en transition

Over the course of history, the relationship between cities and their waters has shown different gradients of interweaving, marked by cycles of bonding and distancing. Following a period of complete neglect of urban watercourses, the versatile, multifacete ...

Biochar and environmental sustainability: Emerging trends and techno-economic perspectives

Edgard Gnansounou

Environmental pollutants including emerging contaminants are a growing concern worldwide. Organic wastes, such as food waste, compost, animal manure, crop residues, and sludge are generally used as feedstock. The conventional treatment methodologies (prima ...

Role of Iron Sulfide Phases in the Stability of Noncrystalline Tetravalent Uranium in Sediments

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Luca Loreggian

Uranium (U) in situ bioremediation has been investigated as a cost-effective strategy to tackle U contamination in the subsurface. While uraninite was believed to be the only product of bioreduction, numerous studies have revealed that noncrystalline U(IV) ...

Implementation of a sustainability monitoring tool into the dynamics of an urban brownfield regeneration project

Martine Laprise, Emmanuel Rey

Within the context of post-industrial European cities, the regeneration of urban brownfields contributes to limit urban sprawl by increasing cities density while revitalizing neighborhoods. Yet because of their complex nature, urban brownfields regeneratio ...

Effect of Aging on the Stability of Microbially Reduced Uranium in Natural Sediment

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Barbora Bártová, Yuheng Wang, Luca Loreggian, Sophie Louise Bretagne, Agnès Novotny

Reductive immobilization of uranium has been explored as a remediation strategy for the U-contaminated subsurface. Via the in situ biostimulation of microbial processes, hexavalent U is reduced to less soluble tetravalent species, which are immobilized wit ...

Occurrence and ecological determinants of the contamination of floodplain wetlands with Klebsiella pneumoniae and pathogenic or antibiotic-resistant Escherichia coli

François Gillet, Charles Pierre Roger Henriot

The survival and multiplication of human pathogenic and antibiotic-resistant bacteria in ecosystems is of increasing concern but has been little explored. Wetlands can be contaminated by water fluxes from rivers and may present environmental conditions lea ...

An operational monitoring tool facilitating the transformation of urban brownfields into sustainable neighborhoods

Sophie Lufkin, Martine Laprise, Emmanuel Rey

The regeneration of urban brownfields is a relevant strategy to limit the sprawling of post-industrial European cities. However, the integration of sustainability issues in urban brownfield regeneration projects is not a spontaneous process, remaining in m ...

SIPRIUS+ : A sustainability monitoring tool specifically designed for urban brownfields regeneration projects

Sophie Lufkin, Martine Laprise, Emmanuel Rey

One of the relevant strategies to limit the sprawl of post-industrial European cities is the regeneration of urban brownfields. This type of projects concentrates new development within already urbanized areas and contributes to their revitalization. Despi ...

Phytoremediation of soils contaminated by organic compounds: hype, hope and facts

Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel

The present opinion paper is focused on the phytoremediation of organic pollutants and is based on the lectures given by the author during the International Congress of Phytoremediation of Polluted Soils, held at Vigo, Spain, 29-30 July 2014. The aim of th ...

Monitoring opérationnel pour l'intégration des enjeux de durabilité aux projets de régénération de friches urbaines

Martine Laprise

In a context where the territorial development stakeholders seek to limit urban sprawl, urban brownfields represent an important potential: their regeneration allows an increased density within the existing built fabric and a revitalization at the neighbor ...
