Hello dimitris!

You should look into CGAL examples.
After You have installed CGAL You can find in installed folder of CGAL the
folder /examples/Nef_3
in this folder You can look e.g into the files
interface_polyhedron.cpp and nef_3_construction.cpp

You can do e.g. following operations:

Creation of Nef_polyhedron, e.g.:
Nef_polyhedron N0;
Nef_polyhedron N1( Nef_polyhedron::EMPTY);
Nef_polyhedron N2( Nef_polyhedron::COMPLETE);
Nef_polyhedron N3( Plane_3( 1, 2, 5,-1));
Nef_polyhedron N4( Plane_3( 1, 2, 5,-1), Nef_polyhedron::INCLUDED);
Nef_polyhedron N5( Plane_3( 1, 2, 5,-1), Nef_polyhedron::EXCLUDED);

You can make * (intersection), + (union), - (difference), ^ (symmetric
difference) operations on Nef_polyhedrons:
N6 += N3;
N0 = N6 * N3;

Look into documentation
http://www.cgal.org/Manual/latest/doc_html/cgal_manual/Nef_3_ref/Class_Nef_polyhedron_3.html#Cross_link_anchor_1174

Converting polyhedron into nef_polyhedron:

Polyhedron P;
...
if(P.is_closed()) {
Nef_polyhedron N6(P);
}

Converting nef_polyhedron into polyhedron:

if(N6.is_simple()) {
N6.convert_to_polyhedron(P);
}

I wish You much success!

Best regards
