Heavy metals uptake by trees near a waste incinerator
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)
Incinerators produce energy burning virtually everything including waste, but emit pollutants such as heavy metals and carbon monoxide (CO). These substances can be uptaken by trees through their roots, leaves or stems. ...
Heavy metals leaching of MSWI bottom ash: effect of short-term natural weathering
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)
Municipal solid wastes incineration (MSWI) is an important part of the waste management systems in many European countries. Incineration process generates two main by roducts: fly ash (FA) and bottom ash (BA). Bottom ash ...
Reduction of apparent water losses
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)
The water loss levels are very different between European countries as water loss varies from 7% to 50%. According to data from the Lithuanian Water Supply Association, in 2015 about 124 mln. m³ of ground water was supplied ...
Struve Geodetic Arc – the Decade in the World Heritage List
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)
Unique scientific project unifying scientitsts of present modern countries: Norway, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Russia was carried out in the first half of the 19th century. ...
Classification of surface temperature for the flexible pavement design
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)
Surface temperature significantly affects the asphalt layers modulus and entire pavement structure response to vehicles traffic loading. Because of the rheological properties of bitumen binders, the asphalt performs similarly ...
Comparing quality of aerial photogrammetry and 3D laser scanning methods for creating 3D models of objects
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)
Latest technologies are modern and productive, therefore they are increasingly becoming integral part of any engineering work. Information about real-world objects are collected very quickly and accurately using either ...
Analysis of calculation methods for life cycle greenhouse gas emissions for road sector
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)
Climate change is one of the main nowadays problem in the world. The politics and strategies for climate change and tools for reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and green technologies are created and implemented. ...
