Semi-quantitative environmental impact assessment and sustainability level determination of coal mining using a mathematical model

Environmental impact assessment (EIA) has led to the dominance of planners on the natural environment of the regions, providing the possibility of continuously monitoring and controlling the status quo by management staff. In this regard, a new semi-quantitative model is presented for the EIA of the Eastern Alborz Coal Mining complex using the matrix method, and determining the corresponding im...

Reconstruction of past environmental conditions predominated on Daranjir playa based on analysis of nebkhas sediment data

  Introduction Research on ancient and recent global environmental change has mainly been based on natural records, such as those preserved in ice cores, loess deposits, tree rings, corals, stalagmites, and deep-sea and lake sediments (Li et al, 2014). These records have been used to reconstruct the Earth’s past climate, environment, and ecological history (Zhou, 2006). However, in the arid an...

semi quantitative risk assessment of a hydrogen production unit

the safety of hydrogen generation facilities is the main concern in their process operation. this study was conducted to identify the hazards and evaluate the risks of a hydrogen generation plant. for this purpose, prha (process hazard analysis) was applied for hazard identification while lopa (layer of protection analysis) was used for risk assessment. the study was conducted in the hydrogen p...

Semi-quantitative risk assessment of health exposure to hazardous chemical agents in a petrochemical plant

Background: Chemical contaminants present in the work environments include gases, vapors, and solid and liquid suspended particles. The number of factories producing chemicals has increased significantly. Each year, new products are introduced into the market. Consequently, the number of employees at risk of exposure to these materials is increased. Hazardous chemicals are used in the petrochem...
