Abstract:
Building materials production generates a large amount of harmful substances poisoning the atmosphere. One of the major sources polluting cities environment is metallurgical industry. Concentration is one of the most important processes where empty components are extracted from the rock. During ore concentration, an increasing number of man-made wastes are generated; they pollute the air and huge area around the factories discharging these wastes. This reduces both space for people to live and place for cities to function and develop. It should be noted that metal production enterprises have accumulated billions of tons of industrial wastes (tailings) that include a large amount of iron-containing materials and rocks; these can be used as building materials, for example, when preparing fine-grained concrete as a mineral powder as well as in construction of roads, houses, in paint production, etc.

Abstract:
Our Biosphere, the only one known to exist, is under attack by various factors. Major culprits amongst these include fossil-fuel-produced air pollution, acidic precipitation (acid rains), and CO2. As we run out of petroleum and natural gas, the question becomes: what should the new energy-system be, so that the damage to The Biosphere and life can be stopped? In view of the rapid depletion of the main energy sources of the present, the fluid fossil-fuels, this paper analyses the various primary energy-options (such as coal, breeder reactors, fusion reactors, and solar energy), and also considers such possible energy-carriers as synthetic fossil-fuels and hydrogen. In this analysis, the environmental effects of various options are considered both qualitatively and quantitatively.It is concluded that the Hydrogen Energy-system is the most efficient and economical energy-system possible, and that it results in the environmentally most compatible and permanent energy-system when coupled with solar energy as the primary energy-source. It is important now that this information be disseminated among the public in general, and environmentalists in particular, so that the implementation of the solar-hydrogen economy can be started without delay, in order to minimize any further damage to The Biosphere and its living components.

Abstract:
1 ABSTRACT Authorities and agencies in many nations are discussing ambitious targets in order to mitigate the most dangerous impact of human activity (climate change) on the environment; by considering health of human society, and also concerns about economics aspects, some regions have already set reduction targets. The European Union has set itself the ambitious target to increase the share of renewable sources in final energy consumption to 20 % by 2020, in order to reduce both GHGs emissions and reliance on fossil fuels from foreign markets. In the framework of this productive change, biomass (one of the major sources of renewable energy) plants are getting a lot of attention, but it is necessary to determine whether, in comparison with individuated climate and resource benefits, the use of this type of energy is also environmentally beneficial. A complete assessment of the impact of a biomass energy plant requires the evaluation of many different aspects at local and global scales. From one side there are important positive aspect such as limitation of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission, use of secondary materials, improvement of local activities, right destination of organic sludges, absence of toxicity, and limited cost; from the other side, the effects on land use, need of chemicals and imported resources, expansion and/or intensification of agriculture in other locations, and, chiefly, formation of secondary pollutants (dust, nitrogen oxides, and VOC) must be carefully considered. The present thesis has the aim to evaluate all these aspects, by providing a methodological approach and a scheme, to be applied for practical application in real situations and in order to perform a quantitative analysis of the environmental impacts. The proposed methodology permits to evaluate the environmental compatibility of a specific biomass plant and the potential energy production from biomass at regional level. Some specific numerical applications, referred to structure of plants and local impact assessment, and also to planning considerations utilized to define the bioenergy potentials and environmental consequences in Italian regions of different structure. The overall description of technological schemes and process and territorial acceptability of bioenergy plants has been completed with considerations about production of biogas and biomethane, and fermentation of low-cost natural materials to produce second generation biofuels. The obtained conclusions, that with their numerical definition can be considered very useful for the specific studied situations, can also be considered fairly representative as a methodological approach, with the general purpose to study with a global approach the effects of biomass energy plants.

Abstract:
The intent of this study is to investigate contextual compatibility in architecture from a psychological perspective. More specifically, the study examines contextual compatibility as an aspect of environmental meaning. Within the framework of this research, the term contextual compatibility is defined as the degree of fit between a new infill building and the immediately adjacent buildings within an urban or campus setting. As such, contextual compatibility is clearly a very specific and narrowly defined phenomenon: yet it nevertheless represents one of the most publicly debated and architecturaly significant manifestations of environmental meaning. For example, the emergence of increasing numbers of design review commissions, the often vociferous public debates on the appropriateness of particular design proposals, and the increasing willingness of architects to employ non-Modernist vocabularies all suggest the importance of contextual compatibility in people's experience of architecture. Because this study represents one of the first empirical investigations of contextual compatibility at the architectural scale, the research is focused on three of the most fundamental aspects of the topics: 1) what meaning does contextual compatibility have for people? 2) what kind of contextual design strategies are most consistently preferred? and 3) what types of physical features are most commonly seen as contributing to or detracting from contextual compatibility? In addition, a further goal of the research is to offer an account of the psychological processes that are implicit in these questions. These questions are considered in the light of three major sets of literatures 1) general discussions of environmental cognition and meaning in the psychological literature, 2) specific substantive research studies on contextual compatibility, primarily drawn from the environmental psychology literature, and 3) critical and theoretical analyses of design strategies for contextual fit, drawn from the architectural literature.

Abstract:
This Ph.D. Thesis aims at suggesting a proper integrated and multidisciplinary design methodology to improve the current conceptual and preliminary design phases of breakthrough innovative aerospace products. The methodology, based on a Systems Engineering approach, is presented together with an envisaged toolchain, consisting of both commercial and ad-hoc developed software, integrated in a Model-Based Systems Engineering perspective. In addition, for the sake of clarity and for validation purposes, a specific case study has been selected and developed all along the document. The reference case-study is inspired to a real pre-feasibility study in which the research group of Politecnico di Torino, which the author of this Thesis belongs to, has been involved. The project aims at developing a suborbital vehicle able to perform parabolic flights for both scientific and touristic purposes. This kind of initiatives paves the way for the future hypersonic vehicles, because it allows to crucial enabling technologies to be tested and validated in relevant environment but with lower performances’ requirements. The Thesis is articulated in seven Chapters with an introduction and conclusion sections and in each Chapter a balanced mix between theoretical investigation, mathematical model development, tool selection or development and application to the selected case study is guaranteed. This document starts reporting the major reasons why an innovative design methodology should be envisaged to deal with the increasing level of complexity in the aerospace domain. In particular, in the first Chapter, a brief overview of existing or underdevelopment initiatives related to hypersonic is reported, together with the description of the different types of mission in which the new hypersonic vehicles will be exploited. Moreover, the major issues related to the infrastructures required to operate these transportation systems are summarized. As far as operations are concerned, a short section makes the readers aware of the current under-development regulatory framework. Then, the integrated multidisciplinary design methodology is presented starting from the very high level analyses up to the sizing of the different components of the transportation system. All along the document, crucial role is played by requirements, whose management can allow a complete traceability of the different design characteristics during the overall product life-cycle. Furthermore, proper algorithms allowing to move from purely qualitative to quantitative trade-offs, are presented, with a noticeable advantage in terms of traceability and reproducibility. Eventually, further improvements of both the tool-chain and the reference case studies are envisaged for future developments.

Abstract:
Despite improved liner design, there are still reported incidences of landfill leachate, rich in heavy metals, percolating through to groundwater and threatening ecosystems. This thesis introduces the concept of segregating municipal solid wastes (MSW) according to their major heavy metals and their metal's adsorption compatibility. Each segregated portion can be disposed in a different landfill compartment to minimize leaching of these heavy metals with the greatest bioactive impact. The validity of the concept was evaluated by batch and column retention mobility studies using copper (Cu) alone or with either lead (Pb) or cadmium (Cd) in solutions bearing various pHs. This was supported by selective sequential extraction (SSE) to determine the affinity to specific liner fractions. The following summarizes the procedure used.
Beforehand, a soil column test using sand with 5 and 10% bentonite was conducted to develop an equation predicting liner permeability, k , under simulated field conditions. The column permeability test revealed that a liner with 5% bentonite resulted in a k value which respected the North American criteria of 10-5 m/s.
In the batch experiments, solutions with Cu alone or with Cd or Pb, adjusted to pH of 3.7, 5.5 or 7.5, were applied to sand liners with 0%, 5% or 10% bentonite, having CEC's of 2.0, 6.4, and 10.8 (cmol(+) kg-1 ), respectively. Bentonite, pH and Pb significantly affected Cu adsorption. Cu was adsorbed by the liners at pH <6.5 whereas Cu precipitated at pH >6.5. Cu retention was higher in the presence of Cd than in that of Pb, at all combinations of CEC and pH. Competition between metals was greater in liners with lower CEC and therefore fewer adsorption sites. Limiting Pb in a landfill compartment can improve Cu adsorption at pH's below the precipitating threshold.
In the SSE procedure, the liner samples were centrifuged, decanted from their solutions and each adsorption fraction analyzed for Cu content. Results indicated that the carbonate fraction adsorbed more Cu, and that Pb significantly increased the mobility of Cu due to competition for exchangeable sites.
In the final soil column test using a sand liner with 5% bentonite, the leachate had an initial pH of 3.7. The leaching test confirmed the compatibility of Cu with Cd. The leaching of Cu was greater in the presence of Pb. Total metals in leachate was greater for the Cu-Cd solutions than for the Cu-Pb, because of Cd's relatively high mobility. The sequential extraction results showed again that the carbonate fraction dominated metal adsorption. Total heavy metal leaching followed the order of Cu/Cd > Cu/Pb > Cu alone.
Thus, disposing MSW in landfill compartments based on their heavy metal compatibility can minimize migration of heavy metals.

Abstract:
Trend forecasting is perceived to be an essential service for fashion companies to use in order to stay competitive in the fast-paced fashion industry. Yet, in times of climate change, appointing new trends each season is a questioned practice. Since trend forecasting aligns with the inherent obsolescence of fashion’s constant change, forecasting seems to stand in paradox with the imperatives of sustainability. Thus, this thesis aims to explore the role of trend forecasting to understand its compatibility with environmental sustainability. The review of previous research depicts the evolution of the trend forecasting field and displays prominent literature within fashion and sustainability, which together displays an apparent research gap that this study aims to fill. The thesis follows an exploratory design pursuing a multiple case study strategy applied through eight semi-structured interviews with trend forecasters and a content analysis of WGSN online trend forecasts. Findings of this study validate the existence of a trend forecasting paradox while also demonstrating areas of compatibilities. Customized forecasting and long-term approaches were concluded as compatible practices and may be integrated into both long-term and seasonal forecasting. This study also recognizes a need to differ between forecasting sustainability and sustainable forecasting. This thesis is believed contribute to an under-researched area and aid the trend forecasting industry to realize its impact on sustainability, as well as suggesting approaches on how to further incorporate sustainable practices into their work.

Abstract:
O ambiente ecológico do Planeta sofre incontáveis alterações, primordialmente, pela ação humana diante da transformação, consumo e descarte dos bens naturais. Tais atitudes resultam em significativa relevância na degradação ambiental e requerem imposição estatal a fim de controlar e/ou impedir maior devastação. Dentre as formas pelas quais o Estado pode combater o processo de poluição, encontram-se os chamados instrumentos econômicos. É exemplo deste mecanismo estatal o tributo ecológico, que desperta interesse em face de seu forte poder de indução comportamental. Embora, nesse aspecto, a utilização da tributação não seja ferramenta inédita, pode-se afirmar que foi com a substituição do Estado Liberal para o Estado Intervencionista que o uso da tributação com escopo de ajuste comportamental se enfatizou. Como o ordenamento jurídico brasileiro ainda não apresenta um verdadeiro tributo ecológico, da forma prevista e defendida pela OCDE Organização para Cooperação e Desenvolvimento Econômico, o tema mostra-se atual e relevante, notadamente, pela experiência internacional que tem demonstrado a capacidade de alcançar resultados significativos no combate à poluição do meio ambiente natural por meio do tributo ecológico. Assim, a proposta do trabalho consiste em abordar a compatibilidade de um tributo ecológico com o sistema tributário nacional. Nesta seara, são abordados os temas relativos aos contornos da extrafiscalidade e da indução tributária, as formas de intervenção do Estado na economia e os seus limites, o desenvolvimento econômico, a proteção ambiental e as externalidades e, ainda, a relação entre a ordem tributária, a ordem econômica e a defesa do meio ambiente, presentes no texto constitucional, em especial, no que se refere aos princípios da legalidade, da igualdade, da livre concorrência e da defesa do meio ambiente. Igualmente, é objeto da pesquisa a análise da legislação estrangeira, por meio do direito comparado para investigação da mais adequada espécie tributária para fins de proteção ambiental. Em sede de conclusão, analisa-se acerca da compatibilidade ou não de um tributo ambiental com o sistema tributário nacional. Para melhor desenvolver o estudo, este último tópico é dividido em duas vertentes: uma teórica acerca do sistema tributário nacional - e uma análise pragmática acerca da sua exequibilidade. Assim, experimentam-se as espécies tributárias existentes no vigente sistema tributário a fim de verificar o veículo mais adequado a ser utilizado como um possível tributo ecológico.
Earths ecological environment undergoes countless changes, mainly brought about by human action on the processing, use and disposal of natural resources. Such attitudes result into a significant outstanding of the environmental degradation, requiring state ruling in order to control and/or prevent greater devastation. The so called economical instruments are among the ways through which the government is able to fight the polluting process. The ecological tax, which arouses interest on account of its strong environmental induction power, is one of the examples of such instruments. Although, under this aspect, the utilization of taxation is not an unheard of tool, one may assert it was through the substitution of the liberal government by the interventionist one that the use of environmental adjustment-scoped taxation, got to be emphasized. Since the Brazilian legal arrangement has yet to put forth an actual ecological tax, as it was foreseen and defended by OCDE Economical Development and Cooperation Organization, the matter shows to be current and relevant, notably, by the international experience which has demonstrated its ability on reaching significant results in the fight against the natural environments pollution by means of the ecological tax. Thus, the present study aims to address compatibility of an ecological tax with the National taxing system. In this scope it examines all issues pertaining the outlines of tax induction and extra fiscal measures forms of state intervention in the economy and its boundaries, economical development, environmental protection and their externalities. And yet, the relation among tax policy , economic policy and environmental protection as presented in the constitution, especially on what refers to legal, equity, free competition and environmental protection principles. Likewise, this research aims to analyze the foreign legislation, by means of comparing the right for investigating the most suitable tax for environmental protection purposes. In conclusion we analyze the compatibility, or not, of an environmental tax with the national tax system. So as to better develop this study, this latter issue is divided into two parts, a theoretical one about the national tax system a pragmatic one and about their feasibility. Thus, experience whether existing taxes on the current tax system in order to ascertain the most suitable one for being used as a possible ecological tax.

Abstract:
Modern buildings are complex systems which have been in continuous interaction with man, for whom they are living and working environment. An important aspect of this interaction is the visual perception of the building and its relation to the natural environment. This is closely related to the evolution of architectural form and structural system of the building. The capabilities of the process of shaping the form are very much determined by the possibilities of adequate modeling of the building and the exchange of information between the participants of the investment process. Support for the modeling of buildings by means of using computer technology and numerical methods allowed to change the adopted aesthetic paradigm in architecture. One of the consequences of this development is the spread of organic forms, for which an obvious choice of the basic structural material has become concrete. It allows the formation of structural forms that previously could not be realized. However, technological limitations associated with the implementation of spatially complex concrete elements caused that after the initial enthusiasm, there has been a decline in their use. New opportunities offered by the application in the production of these structural elements of the flexible membranes made of technical textiles opens up a new perspective for the design of objects with forms integrated with the natural environment.

Abstract:
A new, commercially available, field-portable water sensor was evaluated for efficacy during operation and compatibility with current Environmental Toolkit for Expeditionary Operations (ETEO) software. The ETEO provides sensors to Soldiers to rapidly identify and quantify environmental contamination in soil, air, and water at potential new base sites during initial reconnaissance to ensure safety and minimize unnecessary remediation efforts by the Army. In addition to streamlined environmental baseline survey (EBS) reporting, the ETEO can provide rapid analysis of potential environmental contamination to support various Military applications. The Hanna Instruments HI9829 multiparameter water meter was selected following a survey of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) technologies and analyzed by researchers from the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) for inclusion in the ETEO design since it can rapidly and accurately measure 14 different properties. Usability tests were conducted with researchers unfamiliar with the technology, and a set of standard operating procedures (SOPs) were developed to operate the device. The software for the tool was successfully integrated into the ETEO system for rapid data analysis. The HI9829 has been demonstrated in various scenarios at ERDC and other locations; including Ft. Leonard Wood, MO, at which several visitors reviewed the operation of the equipment and other ETEO technologies. The Thermo Scientific Gemini, another sensor, which can detect organic constituents in various matrices via Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy was also investigated but eliminated from the ETEO design as it could not adequately detect a Military-relevant compound in an environmental matrix. Regardless, the addition of the HI9829 provides water quality monitoring to the ETEO design and greatly improves its capability to address various applications.

Full text
Abstract:
Until recently, environmental pH was not considered a factor in determining pathogen compatibility. Our hypothesis was that the environmental pH at the infection site, which is dynamically controlled by activities of both the host and the pathogen, regulates the expression of genes necessary for disease development in Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. This form of regulation ensures that genes are expressed at optimal conditions for their encoded activities.Pectate lyase encoded by pelB, has been demonstrated to play a key role in virulence of C. gloeosporioides in avocado fruit. Polyglacturonase synergism with oxalic acid production is considered to be an essential pathogenicity determinant in the interactions of S. sclerotiorum with its numerous hosts. A common regulatory feature of these virulence and pathogenicity factors is their dependence upon environmental pH conditions within the host niche to create optimal conditions for expression and secretion. In this proposal we have examined, 1) the mechanisms employed by these fungi to establish a suitable pH environment, 2) the molecular levels at which genes and gene products are regulated in response to environmental pH, and 3) the molecular basis and functional importance of pH-responsive gene regulation during pathogenicity. The specific objectives of the proposal were: 1. Characterize the mechanism of local pH modulation and the effect of ambient pH on the expression and secretion of virulence factors. 2. Provide evidence that a conserved molecular pathway for pH-responsive gene expression exists in C. gloeosporioides by cloning a pacC gene homologue. 3. Determine the role of pacC in pathogenicity by gene disruption and activating mutations. Major conclusions 1. We determined the importance of nitrogen source and external pH in the secretion of the virulence factor pectate lyase with respect to the ambient pH transcriptional regulator pacC. It was concluded that nitrogen source availability and ambient pH are two independent signals for the transcriptional regulation of genes required for the disease process of C. gloeosporioides and possibly of other pathogens. 2. We also determined that availability of ammonia regulate independently the alkalinization process and pelB expression, pecate lyase secretion and virulence of C. gloeosporioides. 3. Gene disruption of pacC reduced virulence of C. gloeosporioides however did not reduced fully pelB expression. It was concluded that pelB expression is regulated by several factors including pH, nitrogen and carbon sources. 4. Gene disruption of pacC reduced virulence of S. slcerotiourum Creation of a dominant activating

Full text
Abstract:
Electrochemical disinfection has gained interest as an alternative to conventional wastewater treatment because of its high effectiveness and environmental compatibility. Two and a half billion people currently live without improved sanitation facilities. Our research efforts are focused on developing and implementing a freestanding, additive-free toilet system that treats and recycles blackwater on site. In this study, we sought to apply electrochemical disinfection to blackwater. We compared commercially available boron-doped diamond (BDD) and mixed metal oxide (MMO) electrodes for disinfection efficiency in E. coli–inoculated model wastewater. The MMO electrodes were found to be more efficient and thus selected for further study with blackwater. The energy required for disinfection by the MMO electrodes increased with the conductivity of the medium, decreased with increased temperature, and was independent of the applied voltage. Fecal contamination considerably increased the energy required for blackwater disinfection compared to model wastewater, demonstrating the need for testing in effluents representing the conditions of the final application.

Full text
Abstract:
Aquatic environmental DNA (eDNA) surveys are sometimes impacted by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) inhibitors. We tested varying concentrations of different inhibitors (humic, phytic, and tannic acids; crude leaf extracts) for impacts on quantitative PCR (qPCR) assays designed for eDNA surveys of bighead and silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis and Hypophthalmichthys molitrix). We also tested for inhibition by high concentrations of exogenous DNA, hypothesizing that DNA from increasingly closely related species would be increasingly inhibitory. All tested inhibitors impacted qPCR, though only at very high concentrations — likely a function, in part, of having used an inhibitor-resistant qPCR solution. Closer phylogenetic relatedness resulted in inhibition at lower exogenous DNA concentrations, but not at relatively close phylogenetic scales. Inhibition was also influenced by the qPCR reporter dye used. Importantly, different qPCR assays responded differently to the same inhibitor concentrations. Implications of these results are that the inclusion of more than one assay for the same target taxa in an eDNA survey may be an important countermeasure against false negatives and that internal positive controls may not, in the absence of efforts to maximize inhibition compatibility, provide useful information about the inhibition of an eDNA assay.

Full text
Abstract:
As part of the campaign to increase readiness in northern regions, a near commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solution was identified for the High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV); and used to assess the suitability of commercially available winter tires for operational deployment. Initial performance evaluations conducted during the winters of 2020 and 2021 demonstrated and quantified significant improvements to traction and handling on a variety of winter surfaces. User feedback from United States Army Alaska (USARAK) Soldiers confirmed these results in an operational environment. Results of this study provide new winter tire specifications for the Army and justify the procurement of a HMMWV winter tire for improved safety and capability for US Soldier and vehicle fleet needs. The data and Soldier evaluations support attaining a National Stock Number (NSN) and provide data to develop models of winter vehicle performance that include the impact of winter tires and chains. This work also paves the way for future development and procurement of winter tires for vehicles where COTS solutions are unavailable. The motivation is to provide Soldiers with state-of-the-art winter tires to increase safety, capability, and operational compatibility with North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) partners in the European Theater of Operations, and mobility superiority in all environments.
