Taking Chengdu as an example, this study assesses the costs and benefits of the implementation of the Action Plan by investigating the direct abatement costs, the change of PM2.5-related disease burdens, and the resulting health benefits. The results show that the abatement costs of air pollution in Chengdu amounted to 8.77 billion yuan from 2018 to 2020, the number of beneficiaries over three years could reach 353,546, and the health benefits amounted to 9.79 billion yuan. The health benefit outweighs the abatement cost. Furthermore, among the abatement measures, the cost of transportation infrastructure development accounted for 92.83% in the total. Considering its co-benefit of industry development and CO2 abatement, the true benefits should far outweigh the costs. The Monte Carlo simulation further confirms the economic efficiency of the Three-Year Action Plan. Although the direct costs of the Action Plan are significant, the marginal health benefits of further alleviating PM2.5 may still be greater than the marginal costs, because the population is large and densely distributed in Chengdu.

Comprehending the life cycle environmental and economic impacts, as well as the necessary conditions and scenarios required for ESS deployment, is critical in guiding decision-making and supporting sustainable operations. In this study, we first analyzed the life cycle environmental impacts of pumped hydro energy storage (PHES), lithium-ion batteries (LIB), and compressed air energy storage (CAES). We then focused on elucidating the potential for carbon neutrality in existing PHES systems compared to LIBs in China by integrating various reduction measures to achieve net-zero emissions scenarios. Ultimately, we combined environmental and economic impacts to demonstrate the eco-efficiency of both ESS, supporting their sustainable deployment. Regarding environmental impacts, LIB is currently the most environmentally favorable ESS, followed by PHES. Various decarbonization measures revealed that transitioning to renewable energy sources is the most effective strategy for carbon reduction, with projected reductions ranging between 75 and 112% in both PHES and LIB systems. When implementing all carbon reduction strategies simultaneously, LIB is expected to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030, whereas PHES is projected to reach this milestone by 2040. With anticipated energy mix optimizations, carbon emissions are expected to further decrease to 22.2 kg CO2/MWh for PHES and 48.7 kg CO2/MWh for LIB by 2050. Economic analysis indicates that the life cycle cost per MWh for PHES is $66.5, approximately half that of LIB. Meanwhile, the payback period of PHES is 21 years, while that of LIB is 28 years to reach the break-even point. This disparity clearly underscores the superior economic benefits of PHES. The eco-efficiency of PHES is anticipated to surpass that of LIBs by 2028, rendering PHES a more favorable option in appropriate regions.</p>","PeriodicalId":13557,"journal":{"name":"Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143556806","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We assessed the ecosystem services offered by the wetlands of Varanasi, one of the oldest living cities, and elucidate the spatial scales wherein these services are delivered. Field visits, personal observations, and interviews based on the Rapid Assessment of Wetland Ecosystem Services (RAWES) approach, were used to evaluate 27 ecosystem services across 12 wetlands. The ecosystem services of water regulation and local climate regulation had high positive count value inferring highly beneficial contributions to human well-being, whereas pest regulation and regulation of human disease, had negative count value indicating an adverse impact on human well-being, primarily due to the polluted state of the city's wetlands. Supporting services with an Ecosystem Services Index (ESI) of 0.55 made a substantial positive impact on human well-being, while provisioning services made minimal contributions (ESI = 0.12). The analysis of the spatial scale of ecosystem service benefits indicated that the distribution of ecosystem services is highly Varanasi-centric.

As a result, ecosystems can be protected, using frameworks and procedures incorporated into regulatory approaches. Yet, when evaluating how freshwater risks from metals are assessed globally, it is apparent that regulatory jurisdictions differ in their progress, and approaches, when accounting for bioavailability. It is entirely reasonable and appropriate for there to be a lag in time between the development of the science and its incorporation into routine regulatory environmental protection. We openly acknowledge that this is not just a regulatory challenge and take a more holistic view of the implementation of the science that informs metal bioavailability. Implementation comprises the steps required to utilize science and knowledge to enable its practical, beneficial, and routine application in regulatory decision making. Different regulatory jurisdictions have taken varied approaches to account for metal bioavailability. We have made specific use of frameworks that utilize limit values, such as water quality guidelines, criteria and quality standards, to illustrate the similarities and differences in the implementation of bioavailability. Approaches taken in Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, and the United States were reviewed and evaluated. While some of these approaches, or parts thereof, have been successful, other aspects have been less so. In this evaluation, we have identified key commonly encountered obstacles and challenges in these approaches to the implementation of metal bioavailability. Finally, we provide an evidence-driven 'road map' to the successful regulatory implementation of metal bioavailability in risk assessment, drawn from successful components of the approaches reviewed.

The effectiveness of this approach was assessed via a field-scale trial conducted at an airport in Australia. Prior to full-scale treatment, laboratory trials were undertaken to determine optimal treatment reagents and application rates. The Standardised Sorbent Qualities Measure (SSQM) and Matrix Sorbent Qualities Measure (MSQM) were developed and applied to assess sorbent sorption/desorption capacity for PFAS under standardised conditions, facilitating sorbent selection. Three blending techniques were employed for field-scale trials: manual mixing with an excavator, large-scale rapid mixing using a pug mill, and a portable trommel screen. The efficacy of soil blending with a RemBind sorbent was validated using the sum of and leachable perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) + perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (PFHxS) assessments. Results showed a substantial reduction in PFAS leachability, with mean PFOS + PFHxS concentrations generally decreasing to below the limit of reporting, resulting in over 98% reductions in leachable fractions. The Sorbent Application Uniformity Test (SAUT) effectively served as a quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) measure alongside PFAS analysis, demonstrating consistent sorbent-soil blending across all methods evaluated. Overall, the large-scale trial at the airport confirmed that immobilisation using 1% to 2% RemBind 100 sorbent offered a viable, sustainable, and cost-effective solution, particularly for PFOS and PFHxS. Applying novel SSQM/MSQM and SAUT methods combined with pre-and post-treatment leachability analysis established a clear link between the sorbent application specification determined from laboratory-scale trials and field validation requirements.

This study evaluated biochar's impacts on soil trace element content, rice plant uptake, translocation, accumulation, and associated human health risks while identifying rice response mechanisms to biochar application. A two-season field experiment was conducted using five treatments: T1 (no biochar), T2 and T3 (10 and 20 tons of rice-husk biochar), and T4 and T5 (10 and 20 tons of longan biochar). Eight trace elements, categorized as micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn) and toxic elements (Cd, Pb, Co, Ni), were measured in rice roots, stems, grains, and soil. Biochar application reduced the heavy metal pollution index (HPI) by 5.9% to 11.4% for micronutrients and 2.8% to 4.4% for toxic elements compared to T1. Translocation, bioaccumulation, and phytoextraction indexes tend to increase with biochar, while the hazard index decreased by 5.1-9.5% for micronutrients and 1.3-8.5% for toxic elements, indicating reduced health risks. These results highlight biochar's dual role in enhancing trace element phytoextraction and reducing health risks, with a more pronounced effect on micronutrients. Rice plants responded to reduced micronutrient availability by boosting uptake while lowering toxic element absorption when HPI was high.

This paper explores a multidisciplinary approach to environmental governance, integrating ecological sciences and social sciences, to ensure the sustainable management of these lakes. We investigated the necessity and challenges of establishing collaborative environmental governance mechanisms to address the complex issues surrounding Lake Menjer as volcanic lake management in the region. Based on an investigation of water quality and biodiversity, all nutrient inputs from anthropogenic activities promoted this lake's degradation. The environmental degradation of the lake showed the absence of management institutions. Drawing upon multidisciplinary research and stakeholder engagement, this study aims to: 1) to analyze the trend of environmental degradation in Lake Menjer in terms of eutrophication; and 2) to evaluate the current governance structures and propose strategies for enhancing collaboration among the various stakeholders. We analyzed existing policies, institutional frameworks, and community participation models to identify gaps and opportunities for improving environmental governance practices.
