Abstract:

Paper presents the main pollutants of the working environment at welding under flux, methodical determination which the main chemical reactions resulting in pollution and pollution coefficient calculation. A number of welding working regime in order to achieve a coefficient of minimal pollution. The experimental results demonstrate that the process of welding under flux is less polluting than manual arc welding and coated electrode but more polluting than the process of welding in protective gas environment. It shows the influence of welding regime parameters for the most important gas polluta

Abstract:

Somatic coliphages, F-specific phages and phages infecting Bacteriodes fragilis were determined in: sea water at variable distances from the freshwater polluting foci, in mussels collected at sites with different levels of faecal pollution of overlaying waters and in mussels purchased in markets. The relative proportions of the different bacteriophages are similar to those in polluting freshwater both in waters and mussels collected in areas near the sites where polluted freshwater reaches the sea. However, as we move further from the origin of pollution there is a very significant increase in

Through an analysis about the atmospheric environment SO2space effect of China from 2000 to 2011, this article puts forward that the atmospheric pollution in China is influenced by per capital GDP and industrial structure to a large extent. Meanwhile, environmental efficiency factors which should restrict atmospheric environmental pollution have positive spillover effect to environmental pollution to surrounding area, which indicates that the environmental pollution treatment in China in current stage is only transition of the pollution in a disguised form.

Abstract:

By the second quarter of the 21st century, the problem of protecting individuals from the effects of pollution has become relevant not only in their physical environment (natural and man-made), but also in social and infor-mational reality. The article explores human ecology as a scientific field in relation to social ecology. The aim of the article is to study the interaction of individuals with the social and informational environment, as well as to identify the negative factors “pollutions” – corresponding with these environments. The concepts of “space” and “environment” are differentiated

Abstract:

In recent years the economy of Bangladesh has increased significantly due to rapid industrialization. Despite economic prosperity, it causes serious damage to the environment by polluting water resources. Factors like discharging industrial effluents, urban runoff, and agricultural wastage are primarily responsible for polluting the water bodies in Bangladesh. This kind of pollution not only harms the environment but also severely affects human health, and in Bangladesh, nearly 80 percent of all diseases are related to water pollution, and arsenicosis is one of them.

The protection of the environment and people’s health from negative influences of the pollution of air as a medium of the environment requires constant observing of the air quality in accordance with international standards, the analysis of emission and imission of polluting matters in the air, and their connection with the sources of pollution. Having in mind the series of laws and delegated legislations which define the field of air pollution, it is necessary to closely observe these long-term processes, discovering cause-and-effect relationships between the activities of anthropogenic sourc

Abstract:

Oil pollution is one of the main pollutions of the marine environment. With the year-on-year increase of our country's oil imports and maritime transportation, our country's offshore oil pollution has become more and more serious, causing serious harm to the ocean and the nearshore environment. According to the current situation of marine oil pollution, the article outlines the current situation, sources, hazards of marine oil pollution, and the methods currently used to deal with and prevent marine oil pollution in physics, chemistry and biology.

Abstract:

Many rapidly developing regions have begun to draw the attention of the world. Meanwhile, the energy and environmental issues associated with rapid economic growth have aroused widespread critical concern. Therefore, studying energy, economic, and environmental systems is of great importance. This study establishes a system dynamic model that covers multiple aspects of those systems, such as energy, economy, population, water pollution, air pollution, solid waste, and technology. The model designed here attempts to determine the impacts of socioeconomic development on the energy and environmen

Understanding the determinants of childhood obesity has never been more urgent given the high levels across the world. It is increasingly recognized that the urban environment may affect childhood growth and obesity, and may provide important potential for community-level intervention. This thesis aimed to investigate how time trends in prevalence and incidence of overweight and obesity among children differ by sociodemographic characteristics, and to evaluate the association between the urban environment, especially on ambient air pollution, and childhood growth and obesity.

Abstract:

The importance of iron and manganese oxides in soil-water environments and their roles in controlling the availability and mobility of contaminants and nutrients are determined. Sorption is simulated using the synthetic iron and manganese oxides: goethite (a-FeOOH), birnessite (Na4Mn14O27.9H20a) nd magnetite (Fe304) which are analogous to natural soil components. Goethite is investigated in the three possible modes of occurrences in soil: colloidal, aggregate, and as coatings on inert materials. The adsorption of cadmium and cobalt onto goethite occurs in a narrow pH range between 6.5 and 7.5.

Empirical analyses that rely on micro-level panel data have found that exporters are generally less pollutant than non-exporters. While alternative explanations have been proposed, firm level data has not been used to examine the role of destination markets behind the relationship between exports and pollution. In this paper we argue that because consumers in high-income countries have higher valuations for clean environments than consumers in developing countries, exporters targeting high-income countries are more likely to improve their environmental outcomes than exporters targeting destina

In combination, the security and environmental crises are creating compound, cascading, emergent, systemic and existential risks.
