Basic Oxygen Furnace Slag (BOF), as alternatives for aggregate in asphalt pavement construction, is beneficial to the environment by reducing land occupation and resource consumption. However, quantitative effects on energy consumption emissions reduction remains poorly understood due unavailability of local life cycle inventory. Therefore, its LCI needs be built accounting properties BOF terms...

Background: Food waste is a very serious problem, it is proven that Indonesia is the second largest producer of food waste in the world. A limited waste management system will result in a decrease in environmental quality such as air pollution, water pollution, and soil pollution. So far, the waste management system is only limited to reducing waste generation. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a ...

abstract in order to assess the environmental impact of agricultural activity, the long-term sustainability should be considered. in order to achieve solutions to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions in the production of rainfed sunflower, this assessment was conducted in the north east of iran. four production methods, i.e. conventional tillage (ct), tow reduced tillages (rt1and rt2)...

In this study, the life cycle assessment (LCA) method has been used to evaluate environmental impacts of various municipal solid waste (MSW) management system scenarios in Banepa municipality, Nepal, terms global warming potential (GWP), acidification (AP), eutrophication (EP), human toxicity (HTP), abiotic depletion (ADP), and photochemical ozone creation (POCP). There are at least six possibl...

The purpose of this paper is multi-objective optimization of refrigeration cycle by optimization of all components of the cycle contains heat exchangers, air condenser, evaporator and super-heater. Studied refrigeration cycle is compression refrigeration cycle of unit 132 Third refineries in south pars that provide chilled water for cooling refinery equipment's. Cycle will be performed by t...

Environmental impacts of 15 European pig farming systems were evaluated in the European Union Q-PorkChains project using life cycle assessment. One conventional and two non-conventional systems were evaluated from each of the five countries: Denmark, The Netherlands, Spain, France and Germany. The data needed for calculations were obtained from surveys of 5 to 10 farms from each system. The sys...

In this article, activated carbon was produced from Lantana camara and olive trees by H3PO4 chemical activation. The prepared carbons were analyzed characterizations such as scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. is used an activator agent to create abundant por...
