While prior studies have focused on the impacts of wheat and rice residue burning, the effects of sugarcane trash burning remain underexplored. This study aimed to compare air quality at six locations in Northern Haryana over two years to assess the impact of sugarcane burning on ambient air quality. Results showed that pollutant concentrations increased significantly during burning, with PM<sub>2.5</sub>, PM<sub>10</sub>, SO<sub>2</sub>, and NO<sub>2</sub> levels increasing by 1.49, 1.63, 1.69, and 1.09 times, respectively (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.05). The carbon monoxide (CO) concentration also significantly increased with a mean value of 1.56 ± 0.26 mg/m<sup>3</sup> occurring during the sugarcane trash-burning period. The PM<sub>2.5</sub>, PM<sub>10</sub>, and CO concentrations exceeded the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), though SO<sub>2</sub> and NO<sub>2</sub> concentrations remained within permissible limits. Additionally, the study identified strong correlations between pollutant levels and meteorological variables, with higher humidity increasing pollutants and wind speed significantly decreasing pollutant concentrations. The PM<sub>2.5</sub>/PM<sub>10</sub> ratio of 0.76 indicates the emission of finer particles, and SEM–EDX analysis of the PM<sub>2.5</sub> filter paper revealed potassium-enriched particles likely from trash burning. The air quality index declined to very poor (category V) during burning periods, underscoring the need for regulatory measures. This study revealed a significant increase in pollutant concentration, during sugarcane trash burning causing a marked decline in the AQI and exacerbating environmental and health risks. This highlights the urgent need for regulatory mandates and adoption of sustainable trash management methods.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":589,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology","volume":"22 9","pages":"8135 - 8148"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143904869","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}

Organic dyes and their challenges in the removal process together with their ability to transport coexisting pollutants are becoming a global threat to living organisms and the environment. Here, five types of organic dyes with different charges and sizes are sustainably removed from water using modified waste material as an economical and environmentally friendly sorbent. These dyes include methyl orange (MO), indigo carmine (IC), crystal violet (CV), methylene blue (MB), and malachite green (MG). Modified activated carbon derived from coconut shell (biochar) (<b>AC-CS</b>) was successfully prepared via a pyrolysis method using pre- and post-treatment modification to produce a sorbent with high porosity and rich functional groups. The structure, morphology, and porosity of the <b>AC-CS</b> were characterized through a series of techniques. The performance of <b>AC-CS</b> on the dye removal efficiency was studied through batch adsorption and column filtration experiments. Batch adsorption studies indicated removal efficiencies between 90 to 100% for all dyes by various adsorption mechanisms like electrostatic interactions (π–π stacking and H-bonding) and Fenton-like reaction. Furthermore, the <b>AC-CS</b> exhibited excellent removal efficiency for above mentioned dyes reaching the maximum adsorption capacities of 900 mg g<sup>−1</sup> (IC), 199 mg g<sup>−1</sup> (MB), 100 mg g<sup>−1</sup> (MG), 98 mg g<sup>−1</sup> (MO), and 39 mg g<sup>−1</sup> (CV).

Also, our result for the simultaneous removal of a mixture containing quinary dyes revealed a higher removal performance at a shorter time than single dyes due to the effect of changing the surface charge of <b>AC-CS</b> by adsorbed dye molecules.

Developing low-cost and high-surface-area adsorbents synthesised by nanotechnology to eliminate organic dyes is an essential issue in water treatment.

This study aimed to synthesize and characterize tetraethoxysilane (TEOS)-based silica aerogel (SA) to assess its efficacy in removing eriochrome black T (EBT), which is a potentially hazardous dye. Based on adsorption studies, the optimal adsorption conditions were found to be 0.2 g adsorbent dosage, pH 2, 120 min contact time, 10 mg L<sup>−1</sup> initial EBT concentration, and a temperature of 40 °C.

The activity of cosmogenic radionuclide Be-7 in cryoconites of Elbrus glaciers was below the world average and amounted to 12.7–60 Bq/kg. In contrast to cryoconites from glaciers of other regions of the Earth, where very high concentrations of Cs-137 were found, in samples of cryoconites from glaciers studied by us this radionuclide showed relatively low values 0.44–68.2 Bq/kg. The data obtained in the study supplement the information on the geographical features of radioactive contamination of cryoconites of glaciers and periglacial soils mountainous areas.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":589,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology","volume":"22 9","pages":"8057 - 8068"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143904692","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 empirical research method is adopted, which mainly includes a literature review, case analysis, and questionnaire. Firstly, through a literature review, this study introduces and analyses the concept of sustainable ecological environment and the development and optimization direction of cooperative electronic commerce model in detail, providing a theoretical basis and thought guidance for subsequent research. Secondly, this study selects several representative cooperative electronic commerce platforms for case analysis. It explores their operation mode, product characteristics, service quality, and social benefits to summarize the experience and lessons of optimizing cooperative electronic commerce model. Finally, a questionnaire is designed to sample the consumers of cooperative electronic commerce. By analysing the results of questionnaire, the following conclusions are drawn. (1) 54.3% of respondents said they had used the cooperative electronic commerce model, with agricultural products purchasing (23.5%) and community service (18.9%) using it more frequently. (2) The cognition level of sustainable development was high overall, with 62.6% believing that it was essential for the future. (3) A multiple linear regression model explored the relationship between using the cooperative electronic commerce model and sustainable development cognition. The results reveal that adopting cooperative electronic commerce model has a significant positive impact on the cognition of sustainable development, which indicates that the promotion and use of this model can promote cognition and practice of sustainable development.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":589,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology","volume":"22 9","pages":"8123 - 8133"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s13762-024-06169-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143904718","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
