Abstract:

To preserve the ecological balance and health of the population of the African continent, it is necessary to maintain the cleanliness of the surrounding rivers, lakes and ocean coasts. Oil production, transportation of oil and petroleum products inevitably lead to pollution of sea waters due to accidents on tankers, equipment breakdowns, and fires. Oceanic coasts are of great importance for the development of the tourism industry, which plays a significant role in the national economies of African countries. However, many coastal areas are contaminated with industrial and household waste, oil

Abstract:

Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is an innovative cancer treatment modality that exploits neutron beams to specifically destroy malignant cells. Despite its assuring clinical benefits, BNCT familiarizes itself with unique environmental health considerations, including radiation safety, waste supervision, and potential ecological ramifications. This review investigates these aspects by appraising radiation safety protocols, waste disposal procedures, and environmental monitoring implementations associated with BNCT facilities. Effective radiation shielding and demanding safety protocols are

Abstract:

Clinical waste (CW) treatment and disposal is a global concern for developing a sustainable society. Clinical waste refers to any liquid or solid waste containing infectious or potentially infectious materials from healthcare, laboratory, or research activities, including disease diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. This type of waste poses risks to healthcare staff, patients, and the surrounding community, increasing the potential for illness and damage. The World Health Organisation classifies medical waste into eight categories: infectious waste, sharps waste, pathological waste, pharmaceu

Abstract:

From the days of primitive society, human and animals have used the resource of the earth to support life and to dispose waste. Rapid population growth and uncontrolled industrial development are seriously degrading the urban and semi-urban environment in many of the developing countries placing enormous strain on natural resources and undermining efficient and sustainable development. Industrial operations lead to considerable generation of hazardous waste and in rapidly industrializing countries such as India the contribution to hazardous waste from industries are largest.

Abstract:

It has been established that naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) may accumulate at various locations along the oil and gas production process. Components such as wellheads, separation vessels, pumps, and other processing equipment can become contaminated with NORM, and NORM can accumulate in the form of sludge, scale, scrapings, and other waste media. This can create a potential radiation hazard to workers, the general public, and the environment if certain controls are not established.

This study employed electroflocculation in effluent treatment and evaluated its efficiency by analyzing turbidity, chemical oxygen demand, and pH levels.

Abstract. The ways to safely dispose of highly radioactive waste are manifold and remain a central sociopolitical challenge. Environmental compatibility, health protection and social peace are only some of the aspects that a future-oriented final disposal must meet. The corridor for action is thus still wide open in many countries, various disposal paths are under discussion, and a number of fundamental decisions still have to be made, even if geological disposal seems to be the reference pathway currently followed in Germany. Against this background, it is a central task to identify, analyze

The world health organization [WHO] in 1983 discussed bio-medical waste issue. The seriousness of improper biomedical waste management was brought to the limelight during the “beach wash-ups” during summer 1998; which was investigated by the Environment Protection Agency (EPA) of the USA; and it resulted in the passing of Medical waste tracking Act (MWTA) in November 1998. This made USA the pioneer as far as waste management is concerned (1). Most important regarding the bio-medical waste is health hazards to patient and relatives, microbiological and chemical contamination of soil and ground

Coalesce refers to the unity affirmed as something grows: co – “together”, alesce – “to grow up”. While coalition is commonly associated with formalised alliances and political strategy in the name of self-interest and common goals, this paper will draw as well on the broader etymological understanding of coal
