Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Typical Case Study: Solid Waste Management in Petroleum RefineriesJadea S. Alshammari, Fatma K. Gad, Ahmed A.M. Elgibaly, Abdul Rehman KhanThe current environmental concerns have forced developed and developing countries to reduce air, water and land pollution for sustainable growth. Solid refinery waste is cocktail of hydrocarbons, water, heavy metal and fine solids and is substantial in quantity. The principal processes of waste management focus mainly on waste source reduction, reusing, recycling, composting, incineration with or without energy recovery, fuel … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 9,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolid Waste Management in Petroleum RefineriesJadea S. Alshammari, Fatma K. Gad, Ahmed A.M. Elgibaly, Abdul Rehman KhanWaste management became focus of attention of many researchers and scientists in the last half century due to its vital importance. Waste management covered waste source reduction in general, by recycling, reusing, composting, incineration with or without energy recovery, fuel production and land filling. A common approach of waste management models were for specific problems with a limited scope (like … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGadolinium at Low Concentration Suppresses both Osteoclastic and Osteoblastic Activities in the Scales of GoldfishNobuo Suzuki, Kazuki Watanabe, Aika Sekimoto et al.For determining the effect of environmental pollutants on fish bone metabolism, we have developed an in vitro bioassay system using teleost scales that has osteoclasts, osteoblasts and bone matrix as markers: alkaline phosphatase (ALP) for osteoblasts and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) for osteoclasts. Using this bioassay, the influence of gadolinium (Gd) on osteoclasts and osteoblasts of goldfish scales was examined … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 20 Sep 2019 · 8,457 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdolescent Internal Environmental Locus of Control Scale (AINELOC) Measurement ToolCarnell Colebrook-ClaudeThis study aims to validate the Adolescent Internal Environmental Locus of Control (AINELOC) scales (green consumer, activist, advocate and recycling attitude). The AINELOC was used to identify the association between internal locus of control and pro-environmental behaviors in adolescents. The study was conducted because of the lack of data in the literature about the subject matter and developed based on … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2019 · 8,611 accessesView PDFCite
