Investigation of Cephalexin Removal Using Biochar Derived from Nephelium lappaceum Seeds
Water and Wastewater Treatment
The improper disposal of drugs into bodies of water has become a severe environmental and health issue. Biochar synthesized from different agro residues could be a potential material for the adsorption of pollutants in aqueous environments. Nephelium lappaceum seeds were pyrolyzed at 600 °C in a...
An Automatic Data-Driven Long-term Rainfall Prediction using Humboldt Squid Optimized Convolutional Residual Attentive Gated Circulation Model in India
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Precise long-term rainfall forecasting is becoming progressively significant, predominantly in periods of fluctuating weather circumstances. These prophecies are indispensable for several areas, including agronomy, water resource supervision, flood attentiveness, and effluence monitoring. This...
Efficient Biomedical Waste Management: Optimizing Segmentation and Classification with EnU-Net-DNN-BMWC
Solid Waste Management
In India, biomedical waste (BMW) management is governed by strict regulations to mitigate health and environmental risks. It includes materials such as sharps, infectious wastes, pharmaceuticals, and non-hazardous items contaminated with potentially infectious substances. Proper management and...
Nitrate source analysis of underground drinking water sources in Zhangjiakou main urban area and its health risk assessment
Water Quality
In order to investigate the main pollution factors of underground drinking water sources in semi-arid agricultural areas in China, and to reveal the threatening influence of pollutants on the normal water security of local society. Single-factor evaluation index, principal component analysis, basic...
Studies on Kinetics, Isothermal Modelling and Optimization of Cow Dung Adsorbent for Synthetic Dairy Wastewater Treatment
Water and Wastewater Treatment
The dairy industry is a major food industry that processes raw milk into a variety of products. The milk processing factory produces DWE with soluble organic components, suspended particles, and trace elements. These components degrade, causing cloudiness and odour. Adsorbing total solids (TS) and...
Groundwater quality assessment for drinking and irrigation purposes in arid to semiarid region of Indus Basin of South Punjab, Pakistan
Water Quality
As the groundwater pollution is increasing, it is crucial to assess groundwater quality and characterize hydrogeochemistry accurately for long term water supply. In this study groundwater samples were collected from 120 locations from Bahawalpur district and analyzed for electrical conductivity (EC)...
Effective removal of Calcium and Magnesium Ions from boiler feed Water using Polyacrylonitrile supported titanium tungstovanadate composite ion exchange nanofiber
Water and Wastewater Treatment
The challenge posed by the presence of calcium ions (Ca 2+) in process streams is attributed to its adverse effects on the heat transfer efficiency of process equipment. In this study, a novel electrospun nanofibrous composite was synthesized by combining polyacrylonitrile (PAN) with well...
Heavy Metals Distribution in Mangrove Leaves in Various Sudanese Coastal Zones at The Red Sea
Marine environment and coastal management
Mangrove ecosystem contamination, especially in the Red Sea region, has caused major concerns on a worldwide scale. The heavy metal accumulation typical of a mangrove species, Avicenna marina L. ( A. marina ) leaves and soluble salts in sediments have not been studied on the Red Sea coast of Sudan...
Optimization of the Freeze Crystallization Process for Recovering of Copper (II) Sulphate from Electroplating Wastewater Using Response Surface Methodology (RSM)
Water and Wastewater Treatment
For the copper-containing electroplating wastewater generated by a semiconductor company, the recovery of copper salts by progressive freeze crystallization and its process parameters were experimentally optimized and studied. Based on the results of single-factor experiments, according to the...
Air Pollution and Urban Economic Growth: A Study Based on Dynamic Models
Environmental Management and Policies
With China's economic growth, the issue of air pollution has become increasingly prominent. As the core of political and economic development, 184 major cities in China face severe air pollution and significant environmental pressures due to high population density. Consequently, China has...
