This study aimed to evaluate the performance of microscreen drum filter and ultrafiltration (UF) as a ‎tertiary treatment to improve the secondary effluent quality. Additionally, hydraulic loading of ‎drum filter and membrane flux of UF were changed. On average, the use of drum filter and UF...

Zinc tungstate (ZnWO4) photocatalyst was synthesized by precipitation method and treated with different non-thermal plasma to study its morphology, structure and photocatalytic activity. The X-ray diffraction results revealed that the plasma-treated ZnWO4 exhibited only wolframite structure and its...

Cellular Lightweight Concrete (CLC) also known as Foamed concrete is one of the most significant type of concrete used for construction purposes due to its various advantages and usages over traditionally produced concrete. The rapid urbanization has led to the enormous increase in wastes being...

The intraseasonal low-frequency oscillation is studied by using gridded rainfall dataset from 1979 to present. Multivariate Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) was used in the extraction of these modes. We have found out that there is a significant increasing trend in the relative strength of low...

An optical sensor for colorimetric detection of Cr(VI) has been synthesized by immobilizing 1,5-diphenylcarbazide (DPC) into alginate/pectin films. The addition of cationic surfactant (CTAB) was used to increase the effectiveness of DPC immobilization by forming hydrophobic-ion pairs. At optimum...

Wind erosion is mainly a phenomenon of arid and semiarid areas, and the porosity of shelterbelts is an important quantitative index for estimating windbreak structure. However, there appears to be considerable variation in the optimal degree of porosity. With the example of an oasis–desert ecotone...

Objective: To obtain the characteristics analysis results of aronia melanocarpa leaves under saline alkali stress state and improve yield and quality of aronia melanocarpa. Methods: Using hyper spectral imaging system to obtain hyper spectral images of aronia melanocarpa leaves under saline alkali...

Purpose: To research the influence of different densities of Platycladus orientalis plantation on the allocation characteristics of carbon storage in the ecosystem, the density regulation experiment on the Pinus massoniana plantation with different densities was carried out to discuss the change of...

In this study, an ecological awareness rating scale and an eco-product purchase decision-making rating scale were developed based on literature and interviews with experts. The ecological awareness variables were subdivided into three aspects: ecological knowledge, ecological emotion, and ecological...

Urban household waste causes serious pollution of the urban ecological environment. Waste separation and processing is an effective approach to reduce the ecological environment damage caused by household waste. From the perspective of the source of urban household waste separation, this paper...
