Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEnvironmental Impact Assessment of Quarrying Plants: An IRF Kriging Solution to Noise and Airborne Dust MonitoringDario Lippiello, Guido Alfaro Degan, Mario PinzariA geostatistical approach is tested for the assessment of the environmental impact generated by industrial plants on the surrounding areas. To this end, a case study of a tuff quarry in the Italian region of Lazio is presented. The method utilised is Intrinsic Kriging with external drift which allows spatial maps of different hazardous agents like noise and airborne dust … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 9 Feb 2019 · 7,885 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleStudies on Environmental Impact Assessment of Reinforced Concrete in Different Life Cycle PhasesJair Frederico Santoro, Moacir KripkaConcrete is one of most used materials in construction and also one of the main responsible for the emission of carbon dioxide, or CO2, in the atmosphere. Thus, in order to study ways to reduce this impact, it is important to evaluate the influence of each raw material of the reinforced concrete, as well as the phases of the life … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 2 Jan 2018 · 8,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleENVIRONMENTAL CRITIQUE ON WATER SECTORAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF BANGLADESHShahriar RahmanThe water resources sector of Bangladesh relies on the Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) to assess the possible positive and negative impacts on the environmental and social components of the project affected areas. The motivation of this research was to identify the key environmental components, gaps and lapses of current EIA practices in water resources sector of Bangladesh. Under the motivation, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 19 Apr 2014 · 7,467 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEnvironmental Impact Assessment for Potential Continuous Processes for the Production of Carbon NanotubesAditi Singh, Helen H. Lou, Ralph W. Pike et al.As an emerging discipline, nanotechnology has the potential to improve environmental sustainability through its application in pollution prevention, treatment, remediation, etc. One challenging issue in the growth of nanotechnology is how to produce purified carbon nanotubes (CNT) in commercial quantities at affordable price and with low environmental impacts. A detailed assessment of such a manufacturing process from both economic and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of Thermal Comfort for Social Impact Assessment: Case Study in Kota Damansara, Selangor, MalaysiaNor Hanisah Mohd Hashim, Kok Weng Tan, Yvonne LingThis study determined the thermal comfort of outdoor recreational park in Kota Damansara, Malaysia. Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) index, Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied (PPD) and Thermal Sensation Vote (TSV) were applied in order to determine thermal comfort in the study area.
