Study of control and decontamination - remediation from explosive residues at former facilities of the company HELLENIC DEFENSE SYSTEMS S.A. (EAS) in Elefsina

ACRONYM:

Polyeco-1

LEADER:

Anastasia Hiskia

START DATE:

02/02/2024

LATE DATE:

01/02/2027

FUNDING SOURCE:

Polyeco S.A.

The Project aims on: (a) the development of appropriate analytical methods for determining explosive compounds and their degradation products in soil samples, building coatings, and water; (b) their application to real samples of soil, building coatings, sediments, water (without prior treatment) etc., from the HELLENIC DEFENSE SYSTEMS S.A. (EAS S.A.) facilities in Elefsina, to identify and quantify (where required) the explosive materials they contain; and (c) their application to real samples taken from contaminated soil, building coatings, sediments, water etc., from the EAS facilities in Elefsina, after appropriate chemical treatment for neutralizing the explosive materials and remediating them. A Private-Public research program financed by Polyeco S.A. Duration: 2/2/2024 – 01/02/2027. Budget: 225 K€. Coordinators:  Dr. A. Hiskia, Dr. T. Triantis (Deputy).
