Situ Pangarengan is located in Cisalak Village, Sukmajaya District, Depok City, and function as a water catchment area. This study aims to identify activities that caouse pollution damage, analyze the quality status, determine pollutant load capacity provide recommendations for prevention control. The main cause of are from residential other activities. Parameters BOD, COD phosphate exceeded st...

BACKGROUND Expanding cities with rapid economic development has resulted in increased energy consumption leading to numerous environmental problems for their residents. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between air pollution and mortality rate due to cardiovascular and respiratory diseases in Shiraz. METHODS This is an analytical cross-sectional study in which the corre...

UNLABELLED This paper evaluates the PM2.5- and ozone-related mortality at present (2000s) and in the future (2050s) over the continental United States by using the Environmental Benefits Mapping and Analysis Program (BenMAP-CE). Atmospheric chemical fields are simulated by WRF/CMAQ (horizontal resolution: 12×12 km), applying the dynamical downscaling technique from global climate-chemistry mode...

The main objective of this paper to discuss the research output for getting better engine performance with lower noxious emissions by improving the fuel quality. The control of diesel fuel properties as a means of Regulated pollutants continues to be charged with reaching various air quality goals. Some additives play effective role in diesel fuel for improving fuel‟s quality and minimize the p...

Probabilistic forecasts are often employed to estimate the potential for high pollutant concentrations. To develop a probabilistic forecast of ozone concentrations, we suggest that use be made of the inherent properties of seasonality and autocorrelation in 0, time series. A non-stationary, autocorrelated stochastic process is used to simulate a conditional probability density function (p.d.f.)...

Oil contamination in the soil has been a major threat to the environment because of the poor solubility. Crude oil can be accidentally or deliberately released into the environment leads to serious pollution problems (Trindale et al., 2005). Bioremediation is a waste management technique that involves the use of the organisms to remove or neutralize pollutants from a contaminated site. An alter...

Benthic amphipod, Grandidierella japonica widely inhabits the Korean coastal waters and is developed as a standard test species for sediment toxicity tests. We exposed G. japonica to various pollutants including 4 kinds of inorganic metals (Ag, Cd, Cu and Hg), tributyltin [TBT], ammonia and 7 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds (acenaphthene, chrysene, fluoranthene, fluorene, naphth...

original article   the objectives of this research were to study the correlations of heat strain score index (hssi) and values of wet-bulb globe temperature (wbgt) index with physiological parameters such as core body temperature, heart rate, and blood pressure of workers exposed to heat stress in a glass manufacturing plant in order to determine the reliability of hssi. this cross sectional st...

It is very important to investigate antimony geochemical behavior in order to identify its source, or reveal contamination processes, since antimony and its compounds are considered to be pollutants of high priority by the Environmental Protection Agency of the United States (USEPA). However, the concentration of antimony in most geological samples is very low, and its stable isotope mass diffe...
