However, amidst these adversities, the pandemic inadvertently offered a unique opportunity to assess the impact of reduced human activity on environmental noise levels. This study focuses on monitoring and mapping noise pollution levels at 101 locations managed by the Bhubaneswar Development Authority (BDA) in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India, during three distinct periods: pre-COVID, during COVID-lockdown, and post-COVID. Using ArcGIS 10.2.1, noise data are spatially analysed across different zones designated by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), namely Industrial, Commercial, Residential, and Silence Zones. The findings reveal a significant reduction in traffic noise during the COVID-19 lockdown period compared to both pre-COVID and post-COVID periods across all four zones. To assess the potential impact on human health, the study employs equations developed by Miedema and Vos (Acoust Soc Am 104:3432–3445, 1998, https://doi.org/10.1121/1.423927) for calculating percentages of highly annoyed individuals and estimating sleeping disorders. Additionally, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) is applied to explore associations between noise levels and health outcomes across different time periods. Despite the significant reduction in traffic noise observed during the COVID-19 lockdown, our analysis suggests that this decrease did not have a statistically significant effect on annoyance levels (<i>p</i>-value: 0.0542) or sleeping disorders (<i>p</i>-value: 0.121).

This study employs two artificial neural networks, Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) and Radial Basis Function (RBF), to forecast manure production in Iranian provinces (2020–2030). The RBF model demonstrated superior accuracy compared to a Multi-Layer Perceptron model. Our forecasts predict the significant potential for biogas and biomethane production from manure by 2030, estimated at 10,782.4 and 6469.44 Mm<sup>3</sup>.year-1 respectively. This translates to replacing 4.03% and 4.98% of Iran's projected annual gas and electricity consumption in 2030. While this offers a renewable energy source, conventional manure management practices are projected to increase agricultural methane emissions. Our analysis highlights that utilizing biomethane from biogas represents the most effective strategy for reducing GHG emissions in the energy sector. The study projects that by 2030, manure management will still produce 14 million tons of carbon dioxide, equivalent to 16.71% of the agricultural sector's GHG emissions. Scenario analysis indicates that adopting biomethane as a natural gas substitute offers the most significant reduction in energy sector emissions compared to current practices. These findings underscore the importance of effective manure management for climate change mitigation. Furthermore, they highlight the need for long-term pollution reduction policies informed by accurate livestock growth forecasts. This study also contributes by demonstrating the potential of artificial neural network models for accurate manure production forecasting and developing GHG reduction strategies.</p>","PeriodicalId":14121,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Research","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142181428","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}

The investigation began with synthesizing composite proton exchange membrane (PEM) with sulfonated polysulfone (SPSF) and sulfonated chitosan (SCS) as a separator for MFCs. A composite membrane has been developed by crosslinking a microporous SPSF substrate with a thin layer of chitosan (CS). The membrane was then evaluated for its suitability in MFCs which employ dewatered sludge. The appearance and physico-mechanical properties of this composite were thoroughly examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), proton conductivity measurements, back-end titration tests, and water uptake studies. Attempts were made to enhance the connection between the duo polymers such as PSF and CS by providing surface changes with the incorporation of sulfonation properties. As a result, two novel types of composite materials were developed: (SPSF/CS) and (SPSF/SCS), which were made by altering a PSF membrane’s surface before adding a chitosan layer using the non-solvent phase inversion technique. The proton conductivity of SPSF/CS and SPSF/SCS composites was measured and contrasted with that of unmodified PSF. The composite, SPSF/SCS-1, 0.5 wt%, showed greater proton conductivity and ion exchange capacity (IEC) (1.7 meq/g, 0.061 S/cm) than the unaltered PSF (0.99 meq/g, 0.009 S/cm).

The findings are as follows: (1) There is a significant negative effect of digital economy development level on carbon emission intensity.
