Development of eco-friendly biochar from agricultural residues for the removal of Bisphenol A
Abstract
Tunisia faces severe groundwater challenges, including overexploitation, salinization, and pollution from agricultural and industrial sources, exacerbated by climate change. Non-Point Source pollution has emerged as a critical environmental challenge, which led to a supply of residual pollutants and organic compounds (such as Bisphenol A) into soils and surface waters. Biochar has been shown to be a promising solution due to its low cost, and high adsorption efficiency. The aim of this study is to develop cost-effective and eco-friendly biomaterials from agricultural waste for the selective removal of BPA.

Dear Esteemed Guests, Colleagues and friends, On behalf of the AGIC5 Organizing committee, I am delighted to welcome you to the 5th Atlas Georesources International Congress (AGIC5) which held from 8th November to 10th November 2024 in Hammamet, Tunisia. This 5th Edition of AGIC focuses on serious water challenges facing Tunisia and Mediterrean region. It will cover a wide range of research fields of research from the resource exploration to the application of innovative technologies for monitoring and treatment. Since its first edition in 2017, AGIC has become an important scientific event. This symposium provided an opportunity for water stakeholders including researchers, experts, Industrials, policymakers to exchange knowledge, share best practices and present the lastest results related to water resources. This edition of the conference has the overall theme "Geosciences and Water Security Challenges under Climate Change"and its main sub-themes of : - Groundwater management and Surface water monitoring and Groundwater recharge - Climate change and water - Water treatment and reuse of non-conventional water - Pollutant control and Water quality assessment - GIS, Remote sensing, and IA applied to water resource - Hydro-Hazards and Early warning system - Geological Modeling and Resources Exploration AGIC5 program included plenary sessions, followed by parallel sessions focused on the main sub-themes of congress. Special sessions will also bring together experts to discuss and find solutions to key water challenges facing society and the environment. In addition, the poster sessions will offer students and young researchers the opportunity to present their latest findings. A student poster award will also be given to recognize outstanding research contributions. Last but not least, I would like to express my gratitude to the four co-chairs for their excellent coordination. I also want to thank the volunteers from the organizing committee, the scientific coordinators and reviewers for their valuable work to select outstanding presentations. Finally, I would like also to thank all partners for their support.

Contaminants risks assessment for a safe expansion of reclaimed wastewater reuse and paths for mitigation Serge CHIRON, IRD France Escalating food demands driven by population growth have intensified agricultural practices, placing extraordinary strain on natural resources. The Food and Agriculture Organization predicts a 70% surge in food demand by 2050, paralleling a projected population increase of over 30%. Consequently, strengthening our food systems is becoming essential. Addressing this challenge requires a paradigm shift towards circular economy principles, in which waste becomes a valuable resource. Wastewater emerges as a promising alternative water source for agriculture, provided its characteristics are suitably enhanced. While this approach offers many benefits, this is not without potential risks to human and environmental health that largely stem from the presence of contaminants in the recycled resources (e.g., organic micropollutants, pathogens, antibiotic resistant genes). In this context, different issues and solutions will be discussed including i) contaminants monitoring strategy, ii) regulation and policy as well as iii) water management practices to allow for a safe resource reuse in an effective and replicable way. If needed, contaminants risks must also be mitigated. In rural area, where the capacity of wastewater collection facilities are often underdeveloped, decentralized treatment systems should be prioritized. 5th Atlas Georesources International Congress Hammamet, Tunisia, November 8-10, 2024 AGIC5 PLENARY LECTURES
Prof. Jean-François BARDEAU Director of Research CNRS, France “ Biography: Jean-François BARDEAU, Director of Research at CNRS, obtained his PhD in Materials Science at the University of Le Mans in 1997. He specialized in the study of the structural and dynamic properties of different classes of materials such as organic-inorganic hybrid compounds, biomaterials and functional surfaces to focus more recently on the phenomena of electromagnetic exaltation induced on multi−nanostructured metallic surfaces to develop SERS (surface enhanced Raman scattering) sensors. Member of the office of the French Group of Vibrational Spectroscopies (GFSV) since 2015, he is the author of more than 150 publications, 5 patents and has received several distinctions for his work. In march 2024, Jean-François BARDEAU became the new director of the ICMN laboratory (Interfaces, Confinement, Materials and Nanostructures) which is a Mixed Research Unit (UMR n°7374) of the University of Orléans and the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS). “ PLENARY LECTURES

Joanna's research focuses on water quality and quantity assessments in Mediterranean, semi-arid, and snow governed karst and fractured aquifers. Her research projects include the high-resolution monitoring and collection of time series data, subsurface characterization, and development of numerical groundwater flow. This approach is essential to drive, using science-supported evidence, policy and infrastructural interventions for GW protection and sustainability on pilot scale. She has supervised many undergraduate and graduate students in research topics in hydrogeology that culminated in various publications. She is the Vice president (MENA Region) of the International Association of Hydrogeologists and an elected member of the IAH Karst Commission. She has been also been elected in the World Economic Forum Young Scientists CommunityClass of 2020.” “ “ PLENARY LECTURES
