Abstract
Rural development, as one of the biggest challenges facing human beings recently, has attracted widely attention in the world, among which rural environment protection is essential for sustainable development. In response to the call to build “green livable villages”, the environmental monitoring and remediation in rural project (EMR-rural project) is launched. EMR-rural (2019 to 2022) is funded by the Ministry of Science and Technology of the People’s Republic of China (MOST). The project aims to develop key techniques and devices for contamination classification, risk assessment, pollution sources tracing and environmental remediation with regard to soil, underground and surface water quality in rural area. To this end, a new generation of physical, chemical and biological tools is integrated with intelligent management platform. The project follows a problem-oriented approach by in situ investigation, lab/pilot-scale mechanism exploration and field determination. EMR-rural takes advantage of the access to the applicable techniques and devices to investigate and to restore soil and water pollution in river network areas, mountainous areas as well as cold areas of China.
Highlights
Rural, as a supplier of food and natural resources, plays key roles for the economic well-being of people living in rural and urban areas [1]
The concept of sustainable rural development which characterized by emphasis on natural, landscape and cultural resources protecting and preserving was developed [11, 12]
The economic, intelligent, reliable, practicable monitoring and remediation techniques and devices, such as online intelligent monitoring, and early-warning platform are desired for rural environment management
Summary
As a supplier of food and natural resources, plays key roles for the economic well-being of people living in rural and urban areas [1]. The concept of sustainable rural development which characterized by emphasis on natural, landscape and cultural resources protecting and preserving was developed [11, 12] In this context, the Ministry of Science and Technology of the People’s Republic of China (MOST) launched a series of projects, namely “green livable village program”, to improve the rural living environment and to promote the coordination of agricultural production, living condition and ecological conservation. A large amount of those chemicals are inevitably released into rural areas, which caused serious damages for rural environment and even human health [18] To address these problems, environmental monitoring and restoration, which are often designed to establish the current environmental status or the trends in environmental parameters, are vital for regulatory agencies [6, 14, 19,20,21]. The economic, intelligent, reliable, practicable monitoring and remediation techniques and devices, such as online intelligent monitoring, and early-warning platform are desired for rural environment management
