As part of the Breast milk, Environment, Early-life, and Development (BEED) study, primiparous individuals were recruited from within 20km of English MWIs between 2013 and 2015 and asked to provide human milk samples. The samples were analysed for quantitative concentrations of 17 PCDD/F and 12 PCB congeners. Linear regression models were used to investigate the association between two proxy measurements for exposure to MWI emissions: (i) log average modelled daily ground-level PM<sub>10</sub> from MWIs (modelled PM<sub>10</sub>) and (ii) residential proximity to nearest MWI and the toxic equivalents (TEQs), ∑TEQ<sub>2005</sub>-PCDD, ∑TEQ<sub>2005</sub>-PCB and ∑TEQ<sub>2005</sub>-PCDD/F + PCB. Samples from 194 participants were analysed for PCDD/Fs and 150 for PCBs. Overall ∑TEQ<sub>2005</sub>-PCDD/F + PCBs ranged from 1.76 to 25.1pg/g lipid with a geometric mean of 5.81 (Geometric standard deviation: 1.64).

This study assessed the AGMD performance in resource recovery by conducting a thorough investigation and optimization of various parameter conditions. Concerning the findings, AGMD satisfactorily inhibits ammonia transfer from the feed stream to the permeate stream by optimizing operating parameters specifically feed temperature and pH. A higher feed temperature improves water recovery, and feed pH is critical in nutrient recovery. In particular, high pH promotes the transformation and transport of ammonia through the membrane, whereas low pH inhibits ammonia transport, encouraging the creation of pure water. Maintaining an acidic feed solution decreases membrane fouling by increasing the solubility of calcium phosphate, hence boosting water recovery. Nevertheless, higher pH levels encourage fouling by allowing solid phosphate particles to form more readily.

The approach employs adaptive boosting to enhance decision tree regression (DTR) and support vector regression (SVR), resulting in a robust predictive framework. The models used key material features, including fly ash concentration, fine and coarse aggregates, superplasticizer, curing temperature, and alkali activator levels. These features were tested across three configurations (Combo-1, Combo-2, Combo-3) to determine optimal predictor combinations, with Combo-3 consistently yielding the highest predictive accuracy. The performance of the developed models was assessed based on standard metric indicators like mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE), Nash Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE), and correlation coefficient between the predicted and actual CO<sub>2</sub>-FP. Results demonstrated that the Adaboost-DTR model with Combo-3 configuration achieved the best performance metrics during testing (CC = 0.9665; NSE = 0.9343), outperforming both standalone and other ensemble models. The findings underscore the value of feature selection and boosting techniques in accurately estimating CO<sub>2</sub> emissions for sustainable construction applications.
