Abstract: 

Background and Objective): In this research the effectiveness of weather and climate parameters in incidence of accidents in the petrochemical industry was studied and management strategies to prevent these events have been presented.Method: Two of the petrochemical companies, one of them in Assaluyeh (named Zagros, located in warm climates) and the other one in Tabriz (in cold climates) were selected for pilot study. The required data were collected by questionnaire, interview and walking through under study fields. The analyses of data have been done by Excel, SPSS software and Correlation statistical test.Findings: Climate parameters don’t have a directly impact on the petrochemical occupational accidents and there is no significant relationship between them.Discussion and Conclusion: The role of climatic parameters in the incidence of accidents in the petrochemical industry is indirect. In fact, the thermal stress in the first stage caused unsafe conditions and then unsafe behavior, and finally cause human error and occupational accidents. In this study, appropriate solutions for instance engineering or managerial measures are also suggested in order to prevent accidents and injuries.

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: Energy consumption in food industries is high and increasing due to the growing population, inadequacy of cultivating farms, and life condition improvement. This growing consumption is a threat to the environment and human’s health. Sugarcane industries are considered as high consuming industries which have a tangible impact on the environment and emission of greenhouse gases. Sugarcane industrial energy consumption share among other industries is 4.3% and more than 70% in total energy of food industry consumption. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of CMD application on the reduction of fossil fuel energy consumption and GHGs emission reduction in Haft Tappeh Sugarcane Factory.Method: The results of the factory energy auditing indicated that one of the proper methods to benefit from CMD is to replace the old boiler which has low efficiency with a new boiler. Pre-feasibility assessment of the environmental and economical aspects of implementing the project has been calculated using “Proform” software. It ran through three scenarios assuming the investment, installation, and maintenance costs; the new boiler consumption rate with higher efficiency and cost-effectiveness of replacing the new system with the old one having lower efficiency. Calculation was based on carbon credit value in global market.Findings: As results show in case if scenario C is applied, the Net Present Value (NPV) will equal 21, 000, 000 dollars and Internal Rate of Return (IRR) will become 39.18%. Carbon credit was considered 20 dollars based on the reduction of CO2 equivalent which was calculated by carbon supply and demand market for CERs of CDM projects that are sold and purchased in carbon exchange market. IRR is higher than 16% discount rate; consequently, it proves that implementing such a project is cost-effective. Provided that the new high efficient boiler is used, the emission of CO2 equivalent during implementing the project-25 years- will reduce to 763, 353 ton equal to CO2 equivalent; furthermore, 13, 607, 000 GJ is saved on consumption of natural gas.Discussion and Conclusion: Considering the boilers with high energy consumption and low efficiency in this factory, the replacement of old boiler with the new one through CDM project is cost effective.

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: Heavy metals are naturally presented in different chemical bonds within sediment. Different factors affect metals bonding in sediment. One of those factors is changing in Redox potential. Redox potential may change under oxic/anoxic conditions in the bottom sediments.Method: In the present study the effect of redox potential on fractionation and bonding of metals within Anzali international wetland bottom sediment is investigated.Findings: Sediment samples of Anzali wetland were aerated for one month and redox potential and pH was measured at 0, 1, 7, 21, and 28th days. Subsamples of sediments at mentioned days of experiments were taken and analyzed for Cu, Zn, Ni, and Cr for deferent chemical bonds using sequential extraction analysis.Discussion and Conclusion: Results revealed that majority of Cu were presented in the sulfidic/organic bonds while Zn was associated with Fe/Mn oxides. Nickel and Cr were mostly associated in hard residual bonds. At the end of aeration process, with increasing redox potential, 8-23% of metals were released from sediments into dissolved phase. They mainly released from sulfide/organic bonds.

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: Arsenic pollution in Hashtrood city was reported. Primary experiments of the stream water samples showed several times concentrations than standard. Total Contents of heavy metal in the soils of polluted villages of Hashtrood city and determining the relationships of these metals and soil properties are the goals of this research.Method: After field investigations and the soil sampling and analysis of soil physic-chemical properties and heavy metals, correlation coefficients and cluster analysis of data were determined.Findings: Cu with OC and Al, Cr, and Mn with clay percentages of soil samples had positive correlation. Five main clusters were determined with cluster analysis that were in agreement with correlation coefficients.Discussion and Counclusion: Low range of the soil pHs causes low correlation between soil heavy metals and pH. Selective adsorption of Cu by soil organic component is the reason of high correlation of this metal with soil organic matter. Positive correlations between clay and OC of the soil samples with some metals indicate that these 2 soil components with metals fixing, reduce their release into environment. Other researches are necessary to determine geology and anthropogenic sources of these metals.

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: Collection and treatment of landfill leaching is one of the most important challenges in the operation of municipal solid waste landfills. Since the most parts of Iran, due to the arid and semi-arid climate, are faced with the limited water resources, the study of landfill leaching-contaminated groundwater remediation is also very important.In recent decades, extensive work has been done regarding the development and implementation of permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) but application of this method needs more investigations for landfill leaching-contaminated groundwater remediation. For this purpose, the groundwater remediation method by permeable reactive barriers was investigated in this paper. In addition, the granular activated carbon and natural zeolite were studied as a common media for the removal of organic pollutants in water.Method: For the experiment, leaching-contaminated water with a COD of 690, 1910 and 3100 (mg/l) was passed from the experimental model of permeable reactive barrier, filled with washed sand, granular activated carbon and natural zeolite, and COD removal rate was calculated in each condition.Findings: The highest COD removal was obtained by granular activated carbon and the best performance was in the 690 (mg/l) concentration pollutants. Also, significant differences were not observed in the rate of COD removal efficiency by zeolite compare to sand.Discussion and Conclusions: Therefore, in order to optimize the use of reactive media, the system must be arranged with layers of zeolite and activated carbon respectively and in a suitable distance from pollution source so that removal of pollutants by the soil can be used in addition to the proper removal of pollutants by each layer.

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: Increasing of degradation process in Chestnut (Castanea Sativa) pure stands as reserved forest in west of Hyrcanian forest led to genetic erosion of the stand. Understanding of ecological demands of plant species is necessary for their management and conservation. So we investigated on leaf morphologic characteristics of chestnut in response to different light regimes.Method: For this purpose 60 trees of natural stands around of Ebrahim Emamzade (in Shaft city located in Guilan province) were selected. Ten leaves (40 leaves from every tree) randomly were selected from four aspects of trees (north, south, east and west). These leaves were imposed by different light regimes. Some of the parameters such as lamina length, lamina width, distance from leaf base to the leaf maximum width, petiole length, nerves (counted variable), teeth (counted variable), leaf tooth width, leaf tooth length, tooth distance and tooth index were measured and analyzed after calculating the plasticity for each character in four aspects.Findings: The plasticity values showed that there is no significant differences among four aspects of crown. The results indicated that plasticity of all studied characters is so low while the most value of C.V was belonged to leaf limb width (4.04%).Discussion and Conclusion: The results of ANOVA showed that all studied parameters had no significant differences between surveyed aspects except distance from leaf corner to the most leaf limb width. Our finding confirmed that morphologic characters of Castanea sativa leaf has low flexibility in response to light conditions. We suggest that study of other ecological demands are necessary for presentation of accurate guidelines to forest managers.

Abstract: 

The soil is an earth's limited natural resource and considered as the most important part of environment after water and air.The special roles of soil in climate change, land degradation, food security and ecosystems are respectively subjects to UN Convention on Climate Change, UN Convention on Combating Desertification and the Convention on Biological Diversity as binding sources of international environmental law.In order to study present or future opportunities and challenges in the field of soil conservation in international environmental law, and to explore required principles for elaborating an effective special legal system for sustainable use of soil, in this paper has been compared and analyzed binding/non-binding treaties related to natural resources conservation in global or regional levels.Implemented studies within international environmental law instruments show that different approaches adopted on soil conservation and lack of integrity in its` required actions, have caused non-efficiency of the present instruments to preserve and sustainable use of soil with regards to all specific characteristics and functions. Therefore, establishing a comprehensive and special international legal system for conservation, management and sustainable use of soil seems to be necessary.

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: The discharge of industrial effluents containing hexavalent Chromium into the environment can be very harmful to living things. Therefore, prior to this discharge into the environment, hexavalent Chromium should be removed from contaminated water and especially from wastewaters. This study aimed to analyze the effects of removal of hexavalent Chromium using derived carbon from almond green hulls.Method: In the present study, derived carbon from almond green hulls of zonal district of South Khorasan (Birjand) were used to remove hexavalent Chromium from Synthetic wastewater while contact time, density, PH, absorbent dosage and temperature were changed. Batch tests were discontinuously performed on Shaker. At the end, to assess hexavalent Chromium, Spectrophotometer UV / VIS Spectrometer T80 at 540 nm wavelength was used.Findings: The findings of the present study revealed that hexavalent Chromium removal was highly dependent on PH. Most of the results showed high removal at PH=2. Furthermore, it was found that as the absorbent dose, contact time and temperatures were increased, removal percentage would increase as well. Surprisingly it was understood that because of limited space in the absorbents, when the initial hexavalent Chromium density was increased, the removal efficiency was decreased.Discussion and Conclusion: Derived carbon from almond green hull and derived carbon, does efficiently remove hexavalent Chromium from industrial water wastes.

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: Increasing industrial activities in and around cities causes many environmental problems and threatens human health. These days, one of the main problems with cities results from urban fringe industrial activities in these areas. This issue can be seen especially in big cities, so that naturally efficient landscapes can be seen only a long distance from these cities. The main problems in such areas are pollution, landscape fragmentation, land structure deformation, and decrease in natural mechanisms.Method: In order to come up with solutions to these problems, some strategies, policies and practices are required. In this regard, landscape planning and design can play an important role. Using the concept of ecology in industrial development has generated the concept of industrial ecosystem based on natural ecosystem patterns and processes.
