The aim of the study was to assess the level of air pollution by volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in a pig fattening house and in its vicinity. Air samples for chromatographic analysis were taken in the fattening house and in the vicinity of the farm. The air quality study shows that the level of organic gaseous pollutants was twice as high in the fattening house as in the atmospheric air. Alm...

F ossil fuels provide substantial economic benefits, but in recent decades, a series of concerns have arisen about their environmental costs. In the United States, for example, the Clean Air Act in 1970 and 1977 addressed concerns over the emissions of so-called conventional pollutions, notably airborne particulate matter, by imposing fuel economy standards on vehicles and regulations to reduce...

The development of wastewater treatment industry has gradually entered the high-standard period and technology needs to be refined for different types wastewater. Traditional water quality indicators are not able explain new problems encountered in current process, especially potential removing pollutants via biological methods. This research proposed a method evaluating process by measuring ox...

this study mainly focuses on enhancing the overall efficiency of gas transmission networks. the authors developed a model with detailed characteristics of compressor and pressure reduction stations. following this, they suggested three different systems with gas turbine including: organic rankine cycle (orc), air bottoming cycle (abc), and abc along with steam injection (si-abc). in addition, u...

The benefit per ton ($/ton) of reducing PM(2.5) varies by the location of the emission reduction, the type of source emitting the precursor, and the specific precursor controlled. This paper examines how each of these factors influences the magnitude of the $/ton estimate. We employ a reduced-form air quality model to predict changes in ambient PM(2.5) resulting from an array of emission contro...

Air sparging (AS) is a commonly applied method for treating groundwater contaminated with volatile organic compounds (VOCs). When using a constant injection of air (continuous mode), a decline in remediation efficiency is often observed, resulting from insufficient mixing of contaminants at the pore scale. It is well known that turning the injection on and off (pulsed mode) may lead to a better...
