Ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is the world's leading environmental health risk factor. Reducing PM2.5 disease burden requires specific strategies that target dominant sources across multiple spatial scales. We provide a contemporary and comprehensive evaluation of sector- fuel-specific contributions to this 21 regions, 204 countries, 200 sub-national areas by integrating 24 global atmospheric chemistry-transport model sensitivity simulations, high-resolution satellite-derived...
The ongoing trade war between the United States and China is having profound impacts on global economy. As recent studies have found substantial amounts of carbon dioxide air pollution embedded in supply chains, Sino–US may also affect emissions health burdens worldwide, which remains poorly understood. Here, we estimate potential changes gross domestic product (GDP), anthropogenic particulate matter (PM2.5) related premature deaths worldwide under two scenarios. We find that for US China,...
Cooking fuels are sources of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), which persistent in the environment and have detrimental effects on human health. Fifteen PCBs congeners from smoke eight (8) commonly used cooking Nigeria were investigated this study. Glass fiber filters to collect air emissions during combustion a controlled chamber. PCB studied analyzed using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) their associated health risks evaluated. The (both carcinogenic non-carcinogenic)...
The study reported in this paper was undertaken an attempt to identify and understand the impacts of electronic commerce car retail industry Western Australia. Much existing literature puts forward theoretical models speculative argumentation describe phenomenon. In contradistinction type approach, reports on empirical investigation perspectives senior executives (CEOs and/or owners) as their actual experiences beliefs about These viewpoints were elicited during face-to-face, semi-structured...
Adsorbents from chicken eggshells were synthesized by a simple method and used as novel effective adsorbent for the removal of carbon monoxide (CO) an ambient environment. The adsorbents characterized X-ray fluorescence (XRF), Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), Proximate, ultimate analysis adsorption isotherms. characterization results showed that presence Ca, CaO, SiO2, CO, O-H, O-Si-O stretching vibration bonding contributed to capacity adsorbents....
Abstract African cities grapple with urban air pollution from traffic‐related pollutants (TRAPs). This study investigated TRAPs concentration variations at traffic intersections (TIs) in Ibadan, Nigeria. AERMOD model was employed to examine dispersion 25 selected TIs, considered as volume sources. Seasonal distributions of six (CO, NO 2 , SO TVOCs, PM 2.5 and 10 ) were determined using meteorological, topographical, pollutants’ emission rates AERMOD. Estimated peak concentrations the studied...
ABSTRACT Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) represent organic contaminants that are persistent hazardous, carcinogenic, and genotoxic, thereby endangering both human well‐being the ecosystem. This research delved into concentration patterns, sources, health hazards associated with PCBs in dust collected from vehicle parks Lagos metropolis. samples of park extended 1.00 to 36.80 ng/g, PCB 18 exhibiting highest mean 17.02 ng/g. Among 12 studied, 5 Cl atom contributed percentage, constituting 30%...
This study investigates kinetics and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Modeling (ANFM) of river turbid water coagulation-flocculation (CF) process using mango kernel coagulant (MKC). CF experiments were performed jar test apparatus the kinetic-transport parameters (coagulation rate constant, half-life time, particle diffusivity) determined models. Grid-partitioning neuro-fuzzy programming codes written implemented in Matlab 9.2 software environment for development architecture. The ANFM input data...
Abstract An assessment of potential biomass resources in Nigeria for the production methane and power generation is presented this paper. Nigeria, as an underdeveloped populous country, needs uninterrupted source energy. The country's energy problems have crippled large sectors economy. percentage people connected to national grid 40%. These 40% experience electricity supply failure on average 10–12 hours daily. Energy from municipal solid waste (MSW) effective MSW management strategy....
Cough and sneeze droplets' interactions with indoor air of a typical hospital clinic that could be majorly found in developing African countries were studied to investigate the effectiveness existing guidelines/protocols being adopted control widespread coronavirus disease (COVID-19) transmission. The influences velocity, type, size distribution, residence time air, trajectory droplets, all considered while interrogating physical distancing measures, use face covers, cautionary activities...
