Earlier phases of economic expansion and urban development have resulted in significant sources of urban soil contamination. Petroleum hydrocarbons are one of the most common groups of persistent organic contaminants in the environment. In this study, two types of treatment in 3 concentrations were prepared that were included plant treated by 1% oil pollution, treatment by 1% contamination with...

Reducing the risk of oil spill disasters is essential for protecting the environmentand reducing economic losses. Oil spill surveillance constitutes an important component ofoil spill disaster management. Advances in remote sensing technologies can help to identifyparties potentially responsible for pollution and to identify minor spills before they causewidespread damage. Due to the large numb...

Leakage of underwater crude oil pipes causes severe pollution to soil and water, and results in great economic loss. To predict the diffusion area of spilled oil before it reaches the water's surface and to reduce the time required for emergency response, numerical simulations were conducted on underwater spilled oil diffusion of bare crude oil pipes using FLUENT software. The influences of wat...

Organic toxic compounds such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, phenolic are a global environmental concern they cause inflammation and skin cancer. As you know there two types of anthropogenic sources hydrocarbons: petrogenic pyrogenic sources. Petrogenic include crude oil petroleum-derived hydrocarbon compounds. Pyrogenic formed result incomplete combustion organic substances oil, wood, coa...

ABSTRACT This paper describes the evolution of Interagency Coordinating Committee on Oil Pollution Research (ICCOPR) and Technology Plan (R&T Plan) to address changing oil pollution risks associated with advancements in energy industry practices. The Act 1990 (OPA 90) Title VII required development an R&T identify resources needed for government research programs. 1992 its 1997 revision...

OBJECTIVE To model the possible air pollution-related health impact of the 2005 oil depot fire at Buncefield, near London, UK, under alternative meteorological conditions to those experienced at the time. DESIGN Atmospheric dispersion modelling of the smoke plume was conducted under the range of meteorological conditions occurring throughout 2005 assuming constant particle emission rates. Pop...

With the worsening of the oil-product pollution problem, oil-water separation has attracted increased attention in recent years. In this study, a porous three-dimensional (3D) carbon aerogel based on cellulose nanofibers (CNFs), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized by a facile and green approach. The resulting CNF/PVA/GO aerogels were synthesized through an environm...
