China has now become the largest country in carbon emissions all over the world. Furthermore, with transportation accounting for an increasing proportion of CO2 emissions year by year, the transportation sector has turned out to be one of the main sectors which possesses a high growth speed in CO2 emissions. To accurately analyze potentially influencing factors which accelerate the process of C...

This paper studies the modeling and optimization of energy use and greenhouse gas emissions of eggplant production using artificial neural network and multi-objective genetic algorithm in Guilan province of Iran. Results showed that the highest share of energy consumption belongs to diesel fuel (49.24%); followed by nitrogen (33.30%). The results indicated that a total energy input of 13910.67 ...

Reducing carbon emissions and addressing environmental policies in the construction domain has been intensively explored with solutions ranging from energy efficiency techniques with building informatics to user behavior modelling and monitoring. Such strategies have managed to improve current practices in managing buildings, however decarbonizing the built environment and reducing the energy p...

Electric motors are the largest consumer of world electric energy, consuming more than twice as much as lighting, the next largest consumer. Electric motors account for between 43 and 46% of all global electricity consumption approximately. They give rise to about 6 040 Mt of CO2 emissions. End‐users approximately spend USD 565 billion per year on electricity [1]. In recent years, increase in e...

municipal solid wastes (msws) vary in terms of quality and quantity, especially their toxic content. the efficient and sound disposal of msws not only needs implementing an integrated management procedure, but also performing a conservative way to reduce the impacts on resources. in the present research, after characterization of msw streams and consideration of disposal methods practiced in si...
