Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPREPARATION OF ACTIVATED CARBON FROM PALM OIL SHELL BY CHEMICAL ACTIVATION WITH Na2CO3 AND ZnCl2 AS IMPRENATED AGENTS FOR H2S ADSORPTIONKanokorn HussaroHydrogen Sulfide (H2S, rotten-egg) is one of the major environmental pollutants having its sources in natural and anthropogenic activities. It’s had smell gas produced by anaerobic digestion in acid condition from organic and inorganic compounds containing sulphur, presents dual problems of its toxicity and foul ordour. One of methods of its removal is adsorption. Activated carbon is a widely used … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jun 2014 · 8,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOCCURRENCE OF ARSENIC, LEAD, THALLIUM AND BERYLLIUM IN GROUNDWATERAbdul A.J. Mohamed, Ibrahim Abdul Rahman, Sadri A. Said, Lee H. LimThe occurrence of carcinogenic and heavy metals in groundwater sources in Urban-west region of Zanzibar Island is an issue that is not very well known. This could be also coupled with the absence of drinking water treatment plants. This study for the first time reports on the occurrence and the levels of three carcinogenic metals-Arsenic (As), Beryllium (Be) and lead … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2014 · 7,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Potentialof Renewable Energy: Using The Environmental Kuznets Curve ModelJamalludin Sulaiman, Azlinda Azman, Behnaz SabooriThis study examines the potential of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in reducing the impact of carbon emission in Malaysia and the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, which leads to global warming. Using the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis, this study analyses the impact of electricity generated using RES on the environment and trade openness for the period 1980-2009. Using the Autoregressive … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Mar 2013 · 14,772 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Testing of an Ammonia Removal Unit from the Exhaust Gas of a Manure Drying SystemA. E. Ghaly, K. N. MacDonaldThe storage and handling of animal wastes is one of the main sources of ammonia gas emissions. Ammonia gas has a distinct, unpleasant odor and can become detrimental to the health of humans and animals at high concentrations. Ammonia emissions are of particular concern in manure drying systems, where large losses of nitrogen, in the form of ammonia can cause … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 16 Feb 2013 · 7,415 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Hydrogen Addition on Diesel Engine Operation and NOx Emission: A Thermodynamic StudyPrateep Chaisermtawan, Sathaporn Chuepeng, Sompop JarungthammachoteProblem statement: The worldwide increasing energy demand and the environmental problem due to greenhouse gas emission, especially produced from fossil fuel combustion, have promoted research work to solve these crises. Diesel engine has proven to be one of the most effective energy conversion systems. It is widely used for power generation, land vehicles and marine power plant. To reduce diesel … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 4 Aug 2012 · 7,767 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Electricity Planning Comprise Renewable Energy and Feed-In TariffHo Wai Shin, Haslenda HashimProblem statement: Mitigation of global warming and energy crisis has called upon the need of an efficient tool for electricity planning. This study thus presents an electricity planning tool that incorporates RE with Feed in-Tariff (FiT) for various sources of Renewable Energy (RE) to minimize grid-connected electricity generation cost as well as to satisfy nominal electricity demand and CO2 emission … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2012 · 8,695 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of CO2 Emission in Energy Demand and SupplyMd. Azizul Bari, Joy Jacqueline Pereira, Rawshan Ara Begum et al.Problem statement: During the last few years in Malaysia, the amount of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) released into the atmosphere has been rising extensively. The main source of CO2 is power source of automobile and industry that are contributing the main role for these CO2 emissions. But these sectors are also very important for economic growth and developments. The aim of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 22 Feb 2012 · 7,057 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParticulate Matter in the Excavation Work Sites in Urban AreasGiuseppe Pizzo, Marina ClericoProblem statement: Excavation work sites in urban areas for infrastructures and buildings cause a great deal of disturbance and damage due to the emission of particulate matter, in particular in the area involved in urban renovation work. Under Italian legislation limits currently exist for PM10 and PM2, 5 but, in the case of excavation work sites, it would be also … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 23 Dec 2011 · 6,825 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTwo Source Emission Behavior of Helium Projectile Fragments in 84Kr Interactions at Around 1 GeV per nucleonManoj Kumar Singh, Arun Kumar Soma, Ramji Pathak et al.Problem statement: The emission of helium projectile fragments has been studied in 84Kr interactions with nuclei of the nuclear emulsion detector at relativistic energies below 2 GeV per nucleon. Approach: The angular distribution of helium projectile fragments in terms of transverse momentum could not be explained by a straight and clean-cut collision geometry hypothesis of Participant-Spectator (PS) Model. Results: Therefore, … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 6,791 accessesView PDFCite
