In production process and properties accounting, the products are being calculated but the part of this procedure is waste generating that is not accounted although the impacts of these kind of wastes will be imposed unintentional cost to industrial sections. The target of doing this study is highlighting the importance of waste accounting among manufactures. The selected methodology as primary step was gathering the available regulations then negotiation with industry owners to convince them. There are 80 thousands of Industrial units in Iran that by implementing this project, the internal and external costs of waste management and the real cost of environmental pollution will be cleared and in foreseeable future about 100 job opportunities for environmental accountants and prosecutors will be created.","PeriodicalId":262661,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Environmental Engineering and Applications","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131230385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Construction and habitat alteration, including dredge and fill operations of shallow areas, excavation of artificial lagoons, construction of huge marine structures, and mining and quarrying. Experts consider Hurghada to be an example of what un-planned development could damage marine and aquatic life. Yet little research has been done on which -if any- physical design factors of tourist villages that promote or impair dredging. For example, is there a relationship between filling more coastal area and plot dimensions or area? Is there a difference between the behaviour of privately and publicly owned plots when it comes to altering the coast line? Are regulatory instruments of protecting the shoreline, limiting area and setting a set-back distance effective and reasonable? This paper analyses these issues using time-series data from 3 satellite images that monitor up coastal development in Hurghada from 1989-2005. It uses statistical analysis linked to a GIS database to examine the association between physical factors of tourist projects and the propensity to assault the coast. It concludes that several planning and legislative flaws are likely to have contributed to the encroachment on the coastal strip in Hurghada. It presents a list of future recommendations for the planning of plot subdivision and its regulations.","PeriodicalId":262661,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Environmental Engineering and Applications","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122692042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ekhmaj","doi":"10.1109/ICEEA.2010.5596107","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ICEEA.2010.5596107","url":null,"abstract":"The infiltration rate is an important parameter in soil, hydrological, ecological and agricultural studies. It plays the main role as the input parameter in models for water flow and solute transport in the vadose zone. In this study, Multilayer Artificial Neural Network “ANN” using the backpropagation algorithm was selected to estimate the steady infiltration rate covering different types of Libyan soils. The activation function was selected LOGSIG in the middle and exit layers. The input data were the percentage of sand, silt and clay, bulk density, saturated hydraulic conductivity and the volumetric water content in soil at −10 kPa). The performance of the ANN models was evaluated against a set of data that never seen by the model during the training phase. Multivariable linear regression model (MLR) based on the percentage of silt, saturated hydraulic conductivity and volumetric water content in soil at −10 kPa was also developed to determine infiltration rate for evaluation purpose. The results obtained in this study showed a good agreement between the measured data and the ANN simulated. The values of mean absolute error and root mean square error were slightly smaller in ANN steady infiltration rate model compared to the developed Multivariable linear regression model to estimate the infiltration rate. Although the results of these comparisons encourage the using ANN in practice, it would be valuable to have large local soil database from many different sites, in order to make a stronger assessment of the ANN models.","PeriodicalId":262661,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Environmental Engineering and Applications","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131723904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many models for conflict resolution and analysis have been proposed and studied till time. Conflict occurs in tagging class label to mixed pixels that encompass spectral response of different land cover on the ground element. In this paper we attempted to present a new approach to conflict analysis due to mixed pixels using rough set-based model of machine learning. The paper deals with the idea of identifying the set of spectral bands contributing to conflict among opinions of experts with the help of training data sets.","PeriodicalId":262661,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Environmental Engineering and Applications","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123500534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Combination of these factors, can give ideas about land and water planning in watersheds. Objective is finding the most effectiveness spatial natural and economic-natural factors in watershed by pixels value evaluation in GIS environment. The Miankouh watershed in Yazd was selected. Natural factors, and social-economic factors, with constraints, for spatial soil conservation priority were selected. In spatial multi criteria evaluation (SMCE) method, factors and constraints were standardized and factors weighing was done. Then tree model was designed in GIS. Result, was composite map with pixels value 0 to 1. These pixels values were imported to spreadsheet program. The effects of changes (decrease and increase) in weight of each spatial natural factor on the pixel values in GIS were recorded. After analyzing and comparison pixel values in spreadsheet, more effectiveness factors were known. It was inferred the most effectiveness factors are covering the watershed vastly, such as, stream net. With these results, land and environment programmers can weigh the spatial natural and economic-natural factors with more recognition in the watershed.","PeriodicalId":262661,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Environmental Engineering and Applications","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114604361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Commons or resources can be useful but sometimes could be dangerous for human and its environment. The resources can be vulnerable if the human who have to manage fail. This argument is a basic of Hardin's view. Hardin argues every people only pay attention on their needs or their private property and they do not care with other stakeholders. As a result, human always fail to manage the resources and also the Hardin's view does not deal with the community rule. Hardin only proposes that the government rule is an appropriate way to maintain the commons. The failure of government policies and private interest is quite common in the world so this essay argues that community itself can manage the sustainable resources and reduce the tragedy of commons.","PeriodicalId":262661,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Environmental Engineering and Applications","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121713345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Members and scholars from universities all round the world. If you have attended a conference sponsored by APCBEES and IACSIT before, you are aware that the conferences together report the results of research efforts in a broad range of chemical, biological and environmental engineering society. These conferences are aimed at discussing with all of you the wide range of problems encountered in present and future high technologies. ICEEA 2010 are organized to gather members of our international community scientists so that researchers from around the world can present their leading-edge work, expanding our community's knowledge and insight into the significant challenges currently being addressed in that research. The conference Program Committee is itself quite diverse and truly international, with membership from the Americas, Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania. This proceeding records the fully refereed papers presented at the conference. The main conference themes and tracks are Environmental Engineering and Applications. The main goal of these events is to provide international scientific forums for exchange of new ideas in a number of fields that interact in-depth through discussions with their peers from around the world. Both inward research; core areas of Chemical, Environmental and Agriculture Engineering and outward research; multidisciplinary , inter-disciplinary, and applications will be covered during these events. The conference has solicited and gathered technical research submissions related to all aspects of major conference themes and tracks. All the submitted papers in the proceeding have been peer reviewed by the reviewers drawn from the scientific committee, external reviewers and editorial board depending on the subject matter of the paper. Reviewing and initial selection were undertaken electronically. After the rigorous peer-review process, the submitted papers were selected on the basis of originality, significance, and clarity for the purpose of the conference.
