Global warming and climatic changes due to pollution have triggered the global efforts reduce concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide. The dioxide capture storage method is considered as a strategy or plan action for meeting emission reduction targets. This paper aims at providing an intensive review various techniques, transportation & utilization this captured in construction industry...

In this work, the electron field emission behaviour of electrodes formed by carbon nanotubes CNTs grown onto monolithic vitreous carbon VCarbon substrates with microcavities is presented. Scanning electron microscopy was used to characterize the microstructure of the films. Tungsten probes, stainless steel sphere, and phosphor electrodes were employed in the electron field emission study. The C...

In recent years, the global climate governance is not just for a global environmental problem of climate change, more involved in international politics, economy, investment, technology and other fields, and involves the transformation of production and life style. Accompanied by global energy and technology revolution, the development of low carbon is our inevitable requirement. Recently, Chin...

Atmospheric black carbon has long been recognized as a public health and environmental concern. More recently, black carbon has been identified as a major, ongoing contributor to anthropogenic climate change, thus making historical emission inventories of black carbon an essential tool for assessing past climate sensitivity and modeling future climate scenarios. Current estimates of black carbo...

Biodiesel is an alternative diesel fuel that can be produced from different kinds of vegetable oils. It is an oxygenated, non-toxic, sulphur-free, biodegradable, and renewable fuel and can be used in diesel engines without significant modification. However, the performance, emissions and combustion characteristics will be different for the same biodiesel used in different types of engine. In th...

We investigated the optical emission features of plasmas produced by 800 nm, 40 fs ultrafast laser pulses on a carbon target in the presence of ambient helium or nitrogen gases at varied pressures. Fast photography employing intensified charge coupled device, optical emission spectroscopy, and temporally spatially resolved optical time of flight emission spectroscopy were used as diagnostic too...

Combustion of wildland fuels represents a major source of particulate matter (PM) and light-absorbing elemental carbon (EC) on a national and global scale, but the emission factors and source profiles have not been well characterized with respect to different fuels and combustion phases. These uncertainties limit the accuracy of current emission inventories, smoke forecasts, and source apportio...

as motorcycles are named as one of the important air pollution emission sources in tehran, investigating their emission performance and finding a solution for reducing their emission is of high importance. in this study, emission factors from 60 motorcycles from tehran’s present fleet and 4 closed loop injection fuel supply system and catalytic converter equipped motorcycles were measured. meas...

Traditionally, minimization of the total travel time spent by the passengers in the system is the most preferred objective while planning transit systems. To satisfy this objective, forecasted travel demands between zones and characteristics of the available fleet are taken into account, and at the end of the planning process, optimum frequencies of each transit lines are identified. Unfortunat...
