Theme IV-7: Global Cross Border Pollution: Industrial and Natural Disasters – Dr. J.C. Oppeneau (ADME, France)

Presentation abstracts will appear here as soon as possible.


Ecotoxicology is associated with important industrial or natural disasters. Global circulation of pollution, such as bioatmospheric exchanges can reach numerous environmental sites located in nearby countries. Such transborder pollution (marine, atmospheric industrial release, gaz, water) require special planning in order to react more or less rapidly in appropriate ways.

Topics that may be discussed include:

  • Global evaluation methodology
  • Suitable criteria for data exchange
  • Coordination schemes and interactive levels of action
  • Time/Distance correlation factors
  • Difficulties encountered
  • Need for data integration
  • General governmental regulations (normalisation, certification, monitoring and security systems)
  • European and International regulations (security magins)
  • Case studies:
    • Global/regional pollution
    • Transnational pollution case
  • Industrial ecology:
    • Industrial use of side products and wastes
    • Elimination and neutralisation of waste matter
