Prof. Ing. Daniel Micallef together with Prof. Ing. Simon P. Borg and RSO II and MPhil Candidate Mr Jeremy Sacco from the Department of Environmental Design, Faculty of the Built Environment recently took part in the 2024 Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environmental Systems (SDEWES) held at the University of Sapienza in Rome, Italy. The event brought together 690 scientists, researchers, and experts in the field of sustainable development from 62 countries and 6 continents to share their ongoing research in the field of sustainable development.
Mr Sacco’s presentation was focused on air quality management within public urban environments, specifically the design of roadside barriers to prevent pollutants from vehicular emissions from being transported into pedestrian zones safeguarding pedestrian commuters.
His research forms part of the locally funded APACHE project (SCP-2022-001), and also serves as part of his Doctoral studies. His work is supervised by Prof. Ing. Micallef and co-supervised by Prof. Ing. Borg.
Additionally, Prof. Ing. Borg also presented research work carried out by Ms Amy Abdilla as part of an MSc in Building Services Engineering final year project on the subject of Data Centres performance and efficiency. This work was co-supervised by Prof. Ing. John Licari from the Department of Electrical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering.
