During the last 4 years, PWEG and in collaboration with the Arava Institute for Environmental Studies (AIES), has succeeded in implementing a comprehensive low-cost and low-technological decentralized wastewater management and reuse scheme in Marj Al Ghazal village in the arid Jordan Valley (JV), improving access to non-conventional water resources. This was achieved by the construction of 11...
Over the past decade, ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) disclosure has emerged as a critical area of investigation, stimulated by the growing threats of climate change. Several studies have proposed digitization and advances in Financial Technology (Fintech) as potential levers for improving the quality of ESG Disclosure. Despite the growing literature, the barriers, challenges, and...
The energy transition is a major change in the energy sector. It moves us from using fossil fuels (oil, gas, coal) to using cleaner, renewable energy sources and improving energy efficiency. This change is not just about switching energy sources; it also involves big changes in infrastructure, technology, public policies, and how people use energy. The main goal is to solve today’s...
In our study of solid waste management in the hotel industry, we explored the importance of sustainable practices in mitigating the environmental and economic impact of this sector. The central issue is to understand why it is crucial to focus on solid waste management practices in hotels, given the significant amount of waste they generate. The analysis highlighted five key words: management,...
Increasing demand for dairy products, combined with society's ongoing demand for more sustainable processes, has led to the production of large quantities of whey from cheese-making. Whey is a liquid by-product of the dairy industry that is usually considered a waste product. Although it is a good source of nutrients such as lactose, minerals, and bioactive peptides. It is frequently dumped...
Water scarcity is a global crisis, and particularly of concern in arid regions like Morocco. One creative solution is mining unusual water sources, such as landfill leachate. The presence of nitrogen in the sediment was studied as part of the use of phosphate lime sludge in treating landfill leachate for irrigation purposes. A volume of 40 liters of landfill leachate was treated with three...
Introduction:
Agrivoltaics has been touted as a possible solution to the competition for land between food and energy production. However, so far, results have been mixed, since different crops appear to respond differently among different climates, PV panel arrays, and even seasons and years within a system. It has been suggested that warmer and drier climates would show the greatest...
In a global context marked by the climate emergency and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the development of renewable energies has become a strategic priority. Morocco, engaged in an ambitious energy transition, is increasingly turning its attention to underutilized local resources, particularly geothermal energy. This study aims to assess the geothermal potential of the Essaouira...
