Exploring the harmful textile and pharmaceutical industries pollutant degradation mechanism and biological applications of MgO – SiO2 nanocomposite for environmental sustainability

by Byeon H. Shalom N. Krishna A.R. Rajendran M. Priyadarshini M. Tonk A. Sunil J.

Issue 2

Chemicals in the environment

This article represents the photocatalytic activity of harmful pollutants from textile and pharmaceutical industries and compares the photocatalytic efficiency between pure MgO and MgO – SiO 2 nanocomposite. The MgO NPs are synthesized using hydrothermal synthesis, in which the extract from Nerium...

Performance evaluation of drying shrinkage and durability in pavement quality concrete with recycled aggregate, ggbs and I-crete

by Chittibabu B. Durga Rani K.

Issue 3

Solid Waste Management

The study examines replacement of natural aggregates (NA) with Recycled Aggregate (RA) in Pavement Quality Concrete (PQC) M40 grade (M1) with 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% RA replacing NA in M2, M3. , M4 and M5 mixes. The compressive strength decreases with higher RA, but all mixes reach the target...

by

Corresponding author: Manoj Kumar M et al. View all

Issue 1

Water and wastewater reuse

This research assessed the performance of combining Sequential Batch Reactor (SBR) and phycoremediation method used for tanning effluent. The SBR system obtained high removal efficiencies with Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) is reduced by 85%, Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) is reduced by 80% as well as...

Fossil fuel emission prediction system using multiple kernel gaussian process

by Deborah S, A. Sivanaiah R. Rajendram S.M. Mirnalinee T.

Issue 1

Environmental data analysis and modelling

According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, 81% of greenhouse gas emission is due to Carbon-dioxide. When fossil fuels, solid waste, trees, and wood products are burnt, Carbon-dioxide emission occurs. The concentration of Carbon-dioxide in the atmosphere is reduced when it is...

Experimental Study of Hydrogen Use in a Diesel Engine in Automotive

by Balashowry K. Prasad kumar P. Aruna Prabha K. Sahithi V.

Issue 1

Global Environmental Change

The main objective of this experiment is to reduce the major pollutants NO and particulate matter that is emitted by diesel engines to avoid green house gases. The critical part is that reducing both the NO and particulate matter simultaneously is not possible. If we try to reduce PM, NO increases...

An updated review on nitrate exposure from drinking water and dietary sources and effects on human health

by Vogiatzi G. Liontos M. Kostakis M. Maragou N. Thomaidis N.

Issue 2

Chemicals in the environment

Nitrates are ubiquitous in the environment and key intermediates of various biochemical reactions in the nitrogen cycle, along with nitrites. A considerable source of nitrates is drinking water. There is substantial disagreement among scientists over the current limits for nitrate concentration in...
