Overall, total phosphorus (TP), ammonia nitrogen (NH<SUB align="right"><SMALL>3</SMALL></SUB>-N), algae, and algal were removed by 85, 60, 99, and 50%, respectively. Water transparency increased from 35 to 100 cm, and turbidity and chromaticity were significantly improved. No secondary pollution was observed, and kept the ecological nature of water. Combined with engineering examples, the principle and characteristics of ecological compound flocculant water purification were analysed, and the feasibility of this method in the treatment of natural open micro-polluted water was verified. This study provides a scientific basis for the use of composite flocculant in the treatment of micro-polluted waterbodies in urban areas. Journal: Int.

The heating efficiency of a prototype soap bubble insulation system was investigated in a horticultural greenhouse in Northwestern Vermont, USA over two winters. Three greenhouses operated by a commercial grower of ornamental plants were compared: 1) a prototype soap bubble insulation system; 2) a commercially available thermal curtain; 3) an unmodified greenhouse as a control. The greenhouse with the soap bubble system was 29% and 25% more energy efficient than control and energy curtain greenhouses, respectively. These results demonstrate a soap bubble insulation system can reduce heating costs for commercial greenhouse operators in northern climates. This ultimately reduces the carbon footprint associated with greenhouses heated with fossil fuels. Further development is necessary to make the system commercially available and accessible to farmers. Journal: Int.

Despite varied renewable energy sources available, solar PV seems to be an optimum choice due to its ease of installation and maintenance. Though conventional algorithm exists for extracting maximum power, non-conventional algorithm by soft computing is foreseen for high stability during a sudden change in irradiation and load transients. In this article, artificial neural network-based maximum power point tracking is focused. A comparative analysis is carried out between single layer neural network and multi-layer neural network for varied parameters. The multi-layer neural network is found to be advantageous in the case of neuron's requirement, implementation complexity and testing MSE. Hence, the trained neural model is implemented in PV-grid fed DTC-IM drive system with various operating conditions. Simulation results are found to satisfactory. Added energy management condition is also validated for various irradiations. Journal: Int.

The interpretation of results using these tools allowed us to understand that acidity and salinity are stress factors for the survival of bacteria because of negative correlations between them. The analysis also showed negative correlations between bacteria and parasites which means the presence of competition, vegetation is negatively affected by temperature and pollution. Ascending hierarchical classification showed that stations having received the same type of discharges meet in the same group; station S8 which receives the leachates of the uncontrolled landfill is alone in a group indicating the unique polluting character of leachate.

Then the spatial inversion process of remote sensing index and surface temperature characteristics is established, and the drought monitoring level of the Yellow River basin is set after the elevation correction. According to the experiment, the accuracy of the method to extract the image boundary information is always above 91.7%, and the fitting degree between the obtained drought monitoring results and the actual results is always above 0.94, indicating that the method effectively achieves the design expectation.

First, we acquire urban landscape remote sensing images through ETM+ and Landsat TM/OLI images, and use ENVI software to conduct geometric correction, image enhancement and other image processing. Then, we acquire spatial data of landscape distribution pattern from urban landscape green space types, patch area size, number and other aspects. We then use differential evolution algorithm to calculate the fitness value corresponding to the initialised population, extract landscape features, and use mutation operators. The optimal solution is obtained through the three steps of crossover operator and selection operation, which is the optimal spatial planning strategy. The simulation results show that the proposed method has higher precision and shorter planning time in spatial planning of urban landscape architecture distribution pattern. Journal: Int.

First, describe the segmentation features of remote sensing images. Secondly, based on the results of feature description, H-minimum transform is used to calculate the segmentation parameters of remote sensing image and complete the segmentation of remote sensing image. Finally, the maximum value synthesis method is used to calculate the surface vegetation coverage. Combined with the normalised vegetation index, the dichotomy model is used to calculate the distribution parameters of surface vegetation, and the distribution monitoring of surface vegetation is completed. The experimental results show that this method can effectively improve the monitoring accuracy and reduce the monitoring time, and the monitoring accuracy reaches more than 93%. Journal: Int.

Its variability was examined by coefficient of variation, precipitation concentration index, and standardised rainfall anomalies whereas trends were evaluated using Mann-Kendall trend test and Sen's slope estimator. The finding indicated that rainfall variability was high during March-May and September-November which resulted in extended periods of driest years. Insignificant decreasing trends of rainfall amount at annual and seasonal (March-May) timescales were observed. However, most extreme events showed varying trends across studied stations. For example, all rainfall extreme indices showed decreasing trends in Yirgachefe and Kochere and significant increasing trends at Bule. Since climatic variability and trends have been changing in short distances, this type of local level study is thought important to take up to date and appropriate decisions on the management of agriculture, water, and flood risks.

It has been stated that currently there is a need to define criteria that would improve the procedure for assessing the economic security of enterprises and take into consideration the transition to an environmental economy. The authors have proposed a method for determining a three-component index for assessing the economic security and a matrix of security zones for enterprises. It has been stated that economic succession, which combines the results of economic, social and ecological development, should be determined by a three-component index of decoupling, which would combine indicators of financial-, social- and ecodecoupling. The paper presents calculations of the integral three-component index of economic succession for a currently operating metallurgical enterprise as well as the conclusions about the state of its economic security in the transition to environmental development.

The effect of polypropylene fibre (PolyF) and nano clay (NC) were employed as additives. Subsequently, both were combined (PolyF-NC) to optimise the physical and mechanical properties of the green concrete (GC). Fourier transform infra-Red (FTIR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), were employed to analyse the morphology of the GC. At the optimised point, PolyF and NC revealed 76.7% and 82.5% increases in compressive strength, respectively. Additionally, PolyF improved the tensile strength 1.5 times compared to the reference sample. Lastly, the PolyF-NC increased the compressive and tensile strength by 12% and 2.1 times, respectively. Consequently, the mechanical properties enhanced by adding 1.8 kg/m<SUP align="right"><SMALL>3</SMALL></SUP> NC and 9.45 kg/m<SUP align="right"><SMALL>3</SMALL></SUP> PolyF to the GC. Based on results, using PolyF and NC additives enhances green concrete's physical properties with C&D waste aggregates. Journal: Int.

Firstly, remote sensing image data of the land to be planned and geometric correction data were collected, image edge information was extracted through the data, image features were fused, and data pre-processing was completed. Finally, based on the pre-treatment results, land use types were divided, and combined with the current land use degree and social development prediction, the fitness objective function of the overall planning was designed, the target constraint conditions were formulated, the spatial planning index of land use was introduced, and the overall planning index was calculated to realise the overall planning. The experiment shows that the Kappa coefficient of this method is higher than 0.8, and the land use compactness of different types of land is above 0.81, indicating that this method has achieved good land use planning effect.

Aiming at the problems of large fluctuations in spatial distribution separation and long planning time in existing planning methods, this paper uses discrete firefly algorithm to optimise the layout of urban garden landscapes. Firstly, a brightness optimisation model is constructed, and after discretisation, the optimal value range of the planning is determined. Then, determine the green content rate of the target area, and construct a green content model to calculate the plant compensation amount. Finally, taking the conflict degree and separation function as planning objectives, the optimal solution constraints are implemented to achieve layout optimisation. The experimental results show that the method in this paper can effectively reduce the separation of spatial distribution in gardens, and the planning time is always kept within 20 seconds, with good planning effect and efficiency.

Firstly, construct an evaluation system and establish the main framework for qualitative evaluation of ecological environment quality. Secondly, the analytic hierarchy process was used to determine the criteria layer indicators, and 18 evaluation indicators were selected for the indicator layer. Thirdly, the information entropy redundancy is determined based on the entropy method, and the index weight is calculated. Finally, establish a comprehensive evaluation index, determine specific scoring standards for each indicator state, match different scoring levels based on the scores, and complete the construction of an ecological environment quality assessment model to achieve accurate evaluation of ecological environment quality. By combining the average score of each region and the average score of each indicator, it can be concluded that the final score of the ecological environment quality assessment in the study area is 70.97 points, which belongs to a good level. This indicates that the overall ecological environment quality of the region is in a good state after river safety renovation. Journal: Int.

Therefore, a dynamic programming method of sustainable land use based on multi-objective genetic algorithm is proposed. Firstly, the population discrete model is used to deeply predict the per capita land use demand and determine the multi-objective object of dynamic programming. Secondly, using the grey objective programming method, the planning objective functions are mainly determined to maximise economic benefits, environmental benefits, ecological benefits, and social benefits. Finally, the multi-objective genetic algorithm is used to solve the objective function, and the results are used for dynamic programming of sustainable land use. The experimental results show that the ecological benefit coefficient after the proposed method of sustainable land dynamic programming is close to 1, and the error of economic value calculation is reduced.

Firstly, establish an evaluation index system for environmental carrying capacity and use the Simpson distribution function to calculate the importance of the evaluation indicators. Then, Cobb-Douglas marginal production function model is used to simulate the utilisation and consumption process of tourist attraction to be developed. Finally, based on the demand and supply of the scenic area environment, the entropy method is used to calculate the environmental carrying capacity evaluation coefficient. Experiment shows that the recognition accuracy of the method for indicator weights remains above 94.0%, and the fit between the evaluation results and the actual results is between 92.43%-95.48%, indicating that the evaluation results of this method are more effective.

In contrast, generation of municipal solid waste (MSW) increased, whose management has become a critical issue for the local body authority. Soil obtained from degraded MSW can solve the issue of excessive demand for bricks and overexploitation of natural clay in its manufacturing and can prove to be an alternative material for replacing natural clay to produce durable and cost-effective bricks. In order to manufacture fire clay brick by using conventional techniques, this article focuses on substituting natural clay with soil remnants from degraded municipal solid waste. Various criteria were examined on the bricks. The average values for crushing strength (3.85 MPa, 3.21 MPa, 2.52 MPa), water absorption capacity (16.92%, 18.85%, and 22.24%), and loss on heat (1.48%, 1.69%, and 2.18%) were obtained for 10%, 20%, and 30% replacement of degraded MSW soil in natural earth, respectively. The outcome shows that the compressive strength reduces as the proportion of replacement increases as the percentage of water absorption and heat loss increases. However, at 20% replacement, the parametric value is more in line with what the pertinent Indian Standard Code considers to be acceptable values. Journal: Int.

Therefore, a green traffic carbon emissions prediction method based on wavelet threshold denoising is proposed. Firstly, the LMDI algorithm is used to calculate the carbon emission impact factors and complete the collection of green transportation carbon emission data. Secondly, the wavelet threshold denoising method is used to denoise the green traffic carbon emission data. Finally, using the denoised carbon emission data as input and the carbon emission prediction results as output, an improved BP neural network is used to construct a traffic carbon emission prediction model. The test results indicate that the relative error of the studied prediction model is smaller, and the Pearson similarity coefficient is relatively larger, indicating that the prediction model has good predictive ability in both short and long term predictions.
