It has been well established that both meteorological attributes and air pollution concentrations affect human health outcomes. We examined all cause nonaccident mortality relationships for 28 years (1981-2008) in relation to air pollution and synoptic weather type (encompassing air mass) data in 12 Canadian cities. This study first determines the likelihood of summertime extreme air pollution ...

The harmful effect of the noise on human health has been known for many decades and it's first harmful effect on the hearing came to be known in the year 1831. According to the nature of the work, this di- sease was called Boiler Maker's deafness.  Noise due to the industrial machineries is one of the main cause of Environmental Poliution, and among the different industreis, Textile industry i...

one pollutant which seriously threatens water resources is dye. therefore, finding a suitable method to separate the dye in water resources is very important. an adsorption process that uses low cost adsorbents is considered as an efficient strategy for this purpose. in this study, erythrosine dye removal from an aquatic environment using natural absorbents, namely sorghum and ziziphus nummular...

The acquisition of environmental data, like pollution and/or meteorological data require the processing of a huge amount of heterogeneous data from external field. As the number of monitoring points groves, we need a strategy to validate the acquired data and to efficiently utilize the transmission resources. An efficient way to obtain the validation-compression of the data sets is the adoption...

Fish discards and by-catch issues are highly topical subjects that are permanently under a social focus. Two main approaches are being considered to address this discard problem: reducing the by-catch and increasing by-catch utilization. Interest in increased by-catch valorization may arise from a greater demand for fish products, such as the development of new markets for previously discarded ...

EPA, the White House, and electric utilities are stalled in a struggle over a proposed new rule on coal ash disposal. Although this rule is long overdue, EPA now stands on the cusp of bringing forward a landmark decision that could benefit aquatic resources in the USA for decades to come and also set an important regulatory leadership example for the international community to follow. However, ...

Pharmaceutical industries and effluents of sewage treatment plants are the main sources of residual pharmaceuticals in water resources. These emergent pollutants may adversely impact the biophysical environment. Pharmaceutical industries often generate wastewater that changes in characteristics and quantity depending on the used manufacturing processes. Carbamazepine (CBZ), {5Hdibenzo [b,f]azep...

Efficient and reasonable utilization of waste biomass resources can not only avoid serious material resources, but also solve the problem environmental pollution. Therefore, development efficient environmentally friendly carbonization technology has important practical significance. Here, activated carbon from orange peel (OAC) is prepared by potassium hydroxide (KOH) activation combined with h...

Limiting global temperature increases to 1.5 °C while respecting ‘the right health’ requires substantial reductions in Short-Lived Climate Pollutants (SLCPs), including methane, black carbon and hydrofluorocarbons, co-emitted air pollutants. This study evaluates the inclusion of SLCP pollutant mitigation within Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) that were submitted between 2015 2022. Be...
