A simplified method for the indirect evaluation of the embodied pollution of natural stones (marble) working chain to be applied for achieving the Ecolabel brand of the product

Cinzia Capitano et al.

Summary: The need for higher energy and environmental quality buildings has increased the urgency for acquiring excellence marks for building envelope materials, such as marble. However, some criteria set by the EU Commission for obtaining the EU Ecolabel brand are difficult for companies in the marble industry to meet. Additionally, the criteria seem to overlook the environmental impact of material transportation within the same company. To address these issues, an alternative simplified method for assessing pollutant emissions in the marble industry is proposed.

Disposal of green roofs: A contribution to identifying an Allowed by legislation end-of-life scenario and facilitating their environmental analysis

Giorgia Peri et al.

Summary: The rapid and widespread deployment of green roofs requires addressing their disposal and assessing their environmental impact. This paper introduces a provisional procedure to determine the end-of-life scenario of green roofs that is in line with waste regulations. The feasibility of this proposal is verified through a field application, and the study highlights the need to update waste legislation to consider new materials used in green transition technologies.

Experimental Characterisation and Field Experience of a Reusable, Modified Polyurethane Foam for the Mechanical Clean-Up of Oil Spills on the Sea Surface

Daniel Niehaus et al.

Summary: Oil spills at sea are devastating for biodiversity in the maritime ecosystem. To clean up the oil quickly and efficiently, various methods have been used, but most of them have limitations. This study presents a reusable modified polyurethane foam for oil absorption on the sea surface, which showed improved oleophilic properties. Lab tests demonstrated its capability to recover oil multiple times its own weight, with a high oil recovery rate in different scenarios. Practical applications of sorption methods were also discussed, highlighting the challenges faced in real remediation scenarios.

Sorbent-based devices for the removal of spilled oil from water: a review

Anh Tuan Hoang et al.

Summary: Oil spills have serious consequences for the environment, nature, and society, requiring the use of advanced technologies and devices to recover spilled oil efficiently. Sorbents play a critical role in oil remediation processes, with a combination of sorbents and oil-collecting devices being developed to enhance oil-recovery capacity. Future research should focus on automatic oil recovery processes using advanced devices and environmentally friendly high-efficiency sorbents to minimize environmental impacts and maximize oil spill recovery.
