The primary objective was to assess these mixtures’ life cycle impacts and costs compared to a traditional control mixture. The methodology employed includes Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Life Cycle Cost Assessment (LCCA), with a focus on endpoint impact categories such as ecosystem damage, human health, and resource availability. The analysis encompassed production, construction, and end-of-life phases, utilizing an 8.5% discount rate and a 10-year planning horizon. Results indicate that recycled asphalt mixtures with RAP and additives show significant environmental benefits, including reductions in impacts across all evaluated categories. Specifically, RAP incorporation led to substantial reductions in resource consumption and lower life cycle costs. Mixtures with 33% RAP and 10% cottonseed oil, and 33% RAP and 0.3% zeolite, demonstrated the highest cost savings and environmental performance improvements. The findings highlight that while the inclusion of additives increases some costs, the overall economic advantage of RAP utilization is substantial. This research underscores the feasibility of using recycled asphalt mixtures as a sustainable alternative to traditional mixtures, offering both economic and environmental benefits.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":"32 17","pages":"11269 - 11291"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143856497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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}

Different approaches, such as trading ratio systems (TRS), offer economic incentives for reducing pollutant discharges and promote cost-effective compliance with water quality standards. This study evaluates the impact of equitable initial permit allocation on the willingness of dischargers to engage in trading and examines its effect on abatement cost savings within a TRS framework for riverine water quality management. The methodology combines a multi-objective optimization model with the Streeter-Phelps simulation to assess permit allocation and trading scenarios in the Sefidrood River. The model was calibrated and validated using 58 years of historical data, generating Pareto front curves for objective functions across three periods with progressively stricter water quality standards. According to the optimization results, equitable permit allocation significantly influenced trading behavior and cost efficiency. Equitable initial permit allocation led to significant reductions in total abatement costs: 58% in the first period, 62% in the second period, and 45% in the third period. These cost savings were achieved through increased trading participation, as evidenced by higher trading ratios and greater traded permit volumes across scenarios. Across the three evaluated periods, each consisting of seven trading scenarios, equitable permit allocation led to significant reductions in total abatement costs, with reduction of 58%, 62%, and 45% in the first, second, and third periods, respectively, while maintaining compliance with BOD standards. These findings highlight those scenarios with higher equity indices facilitated greater participation in trading, leading to increased cost savings and promoting collaborative pollution control among dischargers. The proposed TRS model effectively balances economic efficiency and fairness, offering a viable solution for sustainable water quality management. Ensuring fairness in permit allocation not only reduces individual treatment costs but also fosters cooperative pollution control, thereby enhancing both economic and environmental outcomes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":"32 17","pages":"11199 - 11213"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143856417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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}

Monitoring the exposure to PAHs of the inhabitants of air polluted regions is important because of the impact of these pollutants on human health. The aim of this study was to assess the exposure to PAHs of municipal police officers (non-smokers) living in three localities in the Czech Republic (strategically selected according to the level of air pollution) and determine how air pollution impacts personal exposure to PAHs via inhalation. Twenty PAHs were determined in the inhaled air collected from personal air samplers. Simultaneously, the total exposure to PAHs was investigated by evaluating the concentrations of 11 monohydroxylated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OH-PAHs) in urine samples. Despite the observed differences in the concentrations of PAHs in the air from the personal samplers between the three locations, no statistically significant differences were found in the concentrations of OH-PAHs in the urine samples. Outcomes of this study indicate that inhalation exposure is not the primary source of PAHs exposure for Czech municipal police officers, but that diet may also be an important contributor to total body burden. The levels of OH-PAHs found in urine of Czech municipal police officers were very similar to those found in the urine of the Czech mothers from our previous study.
