Environmentally Sound Disposal of Tannery Sludge

The challenging problems faced by the tannery based countries are the safe disposal of the sludge generated by the effluent treatment plants. In this work, the disposal of the sludge at various generation points such as beam house (BHS) and after tertiary treatment process (TS) is studied. The FT-IR of the beam house sludge confirmed the presence of organic matter at 2880.31cm -1 and calcined p...

environmentally sound water resources management in catchment level using dpsir model and scenario analysis

maharlou-bakhtegan catchment in the southern part of iran is faced with water scarcity.this problem is exacerbated by environmental degradation, climate change effects, mismanagementof water resources, along with a major dependence of water demand supplies on the limitedgroundwater resources. in this study, a combined approach of dpsir model along with the scenarioanalysis was employed to deriv...

Potential use of feebate systems to foster environmentally sound urban waste management.

Waste treatment facilities are often shared among different municipalities as a means of managing wastes more efficiently. Usually, management costs are assigned to each municipality depending on the size of the population or total amount of waste produced, regardless of important environmental aspects such as per capita waste generation or achievements in composting or recycling. This paper pr...
