Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zhao, R., Neighbour, G., & Deutz, P. (2011, May). Preliminary study of hazardous materials management: An optimization model in the context of green supply chain management. Presented at 5th International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering, iCBBE 2011, Wuhan, China

Although the general framework of supply chain management usually focuses on the production process, as well as the delivery of the product to the market and the consumers, the treatment and disposal of waste materials is usually given little deliber...

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vaht, R., Mayes, W. M., Sepp, M., Järvet, A., & Mander, Ü. Analysis of long term hydrological records to assess the changing regime and pathways in oil shale mining districts of North East Estonia. Presented at River Basin Management VI

This paper documents long term (1923-2005) changes in surface drainage areas and run-off characteristics in two small to medium (100-1000 km2) rivers draining part of the Ordovician oil shale field of north east Estonia. The changing regime in the he... Read More about Analysis of long term hydrological records to assess the changing regime and pathways in oil shale mining districts of North East Estonia.

Dispersal and attenuation of trace contaminants downstream of the Ajka bauxite residue (red mud) depository failure, Hungary. Environmental Science and Technology, 45(12), 5147-5155. https://doi.org/10.1021/es200850y

This paper identifies the spatial extent of bauxite processing residue (red mud)-derived contaminants and modes of transport within the Marcal and Raba river systems after the dike failure at Ajka, western Hungary. The geochemical signature of the re... Read More about Dispersal and attenuation of trace contaminants downstream of the Ajka bauxite residue (red mud) depository failure, Hungary.
