Abstract China is currently not only the most populous country on earth, but also world's largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitter. As China's population growth continues contributing to overall global increase, remains a significant player in problems related climate change. The Chinese government, however, has recognized that low-carbon economy country's long-term economic and social interests this now key part of its national development strategy. This paper examines evolution policies for...
Motor vehicle traffic is recognized as one of the critical factors that causes air pollution; however, relationship between volume and pollutant concentrations unclear, especially at a local level. Traditional monitoring systems collect data through counting number vehicles, using either sensors or surveillance cameras, but they have clear limitations such can only monitor certain areas specific occasions. To overcome limitations, we introduce method in area by collecting estimated travel...
Salinity gradient power generation has huge potential to generate clean energy from mixing water streams of different salinities. Reverse electrodialysis (RED) is an emerging membrane-based conversion technique that drives such sources electricity. In RED, the transport ions in selective ion exchange membranes (IEMs) employed for generation. As a key component RED generation, development and optimization IEM are crucial sustainable salinity gradients. Recently, demand high quality designed...
Abstract In this study, the characteristics of extreme cold events over South Korea in boreal winter (November to March) are investigated terms month‐to‐month variations frequency, duration, amplitude, and atmospheric circulation pattern. To explain mechanism for these variations, all classified into three types based on an agglomerative hierarchical clustering method, their linkages with large‐scale variabilities, such as Siberian High (SH), Arctic Oscillation (AO), Madden–Julian (MJO),...
Blue energy can be harvested from salinity gradients between saline water and freshwater by reverse electrodialysis (RED). RED as a conversion technique to generate blue has received increasing attention in recent decades. As part of the system, ion exchange membranes (IEMs) are key elements success future generation. However, its suboptimal performance often limits applications stagnates development technology. The properties IEMs include capacity, permselectivity, electrical resistance....
Abstract The wastewater construction projects are needed for meeting the environment regulatory and compliance, preserving sewer system treatment infrastructure reducing spills. However, most business owners do not understand fundamental of service charge program current adjustment guideline only provides very basic information program. These end up with significant amount money time wasted since they often fall short qualification adjustment. More importantly, no evaluation or cost benefit...
