The iron and steel industry in China is characterized by high energy consumption, air pollutant emissions greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, it imperative to reduce pollutants control GHG the present future. Quantifying synergistic effects of reduction ISI helpful for controlling both jointly. Taking a typical integrated works as case study, effect between environmental impacts (EIs) GHGs under di...

When regulating GHG emissions at the country or product level, it is critical to determine the GHG emissions from electricity consumption. In this study, we calculated production-based and consumptionbased CO2 emission intensities of electricity for the OECD (the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) countries during 1990e2008. We examined the impact of annual development, all...

Trading of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions is an attractive approach to help producers implement cleaner treatment technologies to replace current anaerobic lagoons. Our objectives were to estimate greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions from implementation of aerobic technology in USA swine farms. Emission reductions were calculated using the approved United Nations framework convent...

The effects of greenhouse gases (GHG) on the growth of global warming, and increase of GHG and air pollutant emissions for energy production have forced the need of energy recovery which is normally wasted in industrial plant. The present research work focused on the GHG and air pollutant emissions reduction employing pressure waste energy recovery. Pressure break-down via Joule-Thomson valve i...

The energy efficiency, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and carbon efficiency of paddy rice production were analysed in Sari in the Mazandaran province of Iran during 2011–2012. Data was collected through questionnaires and interviews with paddy producers. The results showed that the net energy gain was 27,932 MJ ha-1 and energy efficiency was 1.83 during production. The results o...

Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are vital components of the earth’s atmosphere, trapping heat around the earth, maintaining temperatures necessary for human existence. Until the Industrial Revolution, these gases existed in a natural equilibrium with the environment. Since that time, anthropogenic activities such as fossil fuel burning and land clearing have increased the quantity of GHGs, such as carb...

Large residential areas in Sweden and elsewhere are facing a need for renovation. Swedish buildings from the record year era (1961 – 1974) are now 40 – 55 years old and in many cases in need of extensive renovation measures. This need for renovation could be seen as an important opportunity to achieve overarching sustainability target levels and to perform renovation with a holistic approach. T...
