Ecological technology evaluation model and its application based on Logistic Regression

In order to cope with degradation and unsustainability of ecosystems, many countries had developed a large number of ecotechnologies. Before learning ecotechnology from other regions, we should evaluate the technology to judge whether it is suitable for our own situation. Based on the lack of scientific and reasonable index system as well as evaluation model in ecotechnology evaluation, we constructed a comprehensive evaluation index system consist of the eco-technology attributes, the implementation conditions, the implementation effects and the popularization potential; and established three-stage evaluation method with Logistic Regression Model according to the analysis of advantages and disadvantages of commonly used assessment models. According to our understanding degree of ecotechnology, the model could not only realize the comprehensive evaluation of ecotechnology as a whole, but also modularly assess the various elements of technology, and the evaluation process is dynamic and objective. We realized the evaluation model of ecotechnology based on the investigation on soil and water conservation technology in the Loess Plateau, and verified its effectiveness using the data of Nangou Village. The results show that the three-stage evaluation method based on Logistic Regression Model is suitable for ecotechnology assessment. The model can not only provide scientific and effective support for the introduction and popularization of ecotechnology, but also provide reference for the design of ecological engineering construction scheme.

Ecological Protection Technology of Spraying Vegetation Concrete on Carbonaceous Rock Slope Experimental Research and Application

To solve the environmental protection issue of carbonaceous rock slope, the failure mechanism of carbonaceous rock slope and the protection mechanism of vegetation concrete are analyzed based on the engineering characteristics of carbonaceous rock and vegetation concrete. Therefore, the field test of vegetation concrete was carried out to obtain the optimal dosage of vegetation concrete greening additive. The application of environmental protection technology of vegetation concrete on carbonaceous rock slope is applied in slope engineering of Hebai highway, and the change law of soil fertility was analyzed to verify the effect of ecological protection. The results show that the protection mechanism of vegetation concrete slope protection technology is mainly categorized into two groups, namely, the surface sealing effect of vegetation concrete substrate in the early stage and the plant ecological protection effect in the later stage. The experiment results show that the optimum dosage of green additive for vegetation concrete is ranging from 30 kg/m3 to 40 kg/m3. According to the field application, within one year after the construction of vegetation concrete, the contents of available phosphorus, potassium, and organic matter increased by 70.2%, 24.9%, and 76.8%, respectively. Moreover, the content of alkali hydrolyzed nitrogen decreased by 44.8% and bulk density by 17.4%; the content of total phosphorus changed little. After 60 days of construction, the vegetation coverage rate of the slope can reach more than 95% and there is no obvious soil erosion phenomenon after three times of heavy rainfall.

Marketing component of resource-saving environmental technologies of fallen leaves utilization

The article is devoted to the formation of marketing-mix elements for resource-saving ecological technologies of fallen leaves utilization that basis on technological process analysis. There is no doubt about statement that fallen leaves are beautiful. However, the romance of autumn leaves charms everyone, except those people, which forced to clean it up. In situation when people got a lot of trees and bushes on the garden, they need to clean leaves as fast as possible in order not to damage the grass cover. Every year utility workers and gardeners go to “battlefield”, several times raking tons of fallen leaves and piles of leaves that also serves as shelter for small animals and promotes for saving and reproduction of microorganisms. Meanwhile dissolution of the leaves emits methane gas, which is more than 20 times more destructive that CO2. Despite the ban and big fines, people continue to burn leaves piles, guided by habit and reluctance to spend on the payment of removal. Considered that fallen leaves should be disposed of as organic fertilizer and processed as organic fuel. A fundamental review of the existing waste disposal and recycling technologies was carried out leaves. Author offering a solution about resource-saving eco-technology of the disposal fallen leaves and gives his opinion about the prospect of further development of existing progressing technologies, exception is obtaining biogas. Also explained the tendency of consider them as interesting technical solution that has been tested, for example creating a resource-saving eco-technology for the disposal of fallen leaves. Resource-saving eco-technology and equipment that works autonomously for bio recycling and heat recycling of leaves which fallen is proposed for consideration. That helps you to avoid many problems such as design-technological and organizational-logistic. Technology doesn’t require operations of grinding, washing, re-grinding and pressing, which makes it unnecessary to involve the most difficult mechanisms and devices which isn`t cheap. That equipment has no heating system, which makes insignificant values of indicators of combustion, heat generation, content of harmful impurities; thermobriquettes are transportable which excludes the ingress of moisture and oxygen. Also, cross terrain vehicle can`t transport leaves or biomass, it doesn’t increase fuel consumption during heavy traffic.

Comprehensive Analysis of Ecological Restoration Technologies in Typical Ecologically Vulnerable Regions around the World

Ecosystem degradation is a key issue facing the world. Rapid economic development has been achieved at the cost of degradation and environmental pollution, which has affected human well-being, particularly in fragile ecosystems. To achieve the United Nations sustainable development goals, it is essential to develop technologies to control degradation and restore ecosystems. However, a comprehensive assessment of the different types of degradation, of the methods used in different regions, and of the differences between regions has not been carried out. In this study, we examined databases of international organizations, interviewed experts to evaluate existing methods based on five dimensions, identified restoration technologies (hereinafter referred to as RTs) suitable for different types of degradation, and summarized the restoration effectiveness in different regions. We found 101 RTs around the world and found that the same technology can be applied in different regions. The RTs were dominated by engineering and biological RTs, accounting for 19.2–26.7% and 33.4–34.7% of the total, respectively. 45, 30, and 26 RTs were suitable for controlling soil erosion, sandy desertification, and degraded ecosystem, respectively. The average evaluation index of RTs for controlling these degradation problems are 0.81, 0.78, and 0.73, respectively meaning RTs used to fight soil erosion are more effective. The potential to transfer a technology to other regions and the readiness of the technologies were low for degraded ecosystems, and the ease of use was high for sandy desertification RTs. Although a given technology could be applied to different regions or degradation types, results varied. Our study will help ecosystem managers to deal with specific degradation issues, phases, and severities, and will support the transfer of RTs among regions.

Organic Fertilizer Based on Rhizophagus intraradices: Valorization in a Farming Environment for Maize in the South, Center and North of Benin

Maize plays an important role in agricultural production systems in all agro-ecological zones of Benin. Despite its importance, its production faces many constraints including soil fertility. One of the ecological technologies aimed at improving agricultural production is the use of soil microorganisms including arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Rhizophagus intraradices, an indigenous strain, on maize productivity in farmers' areas in the Research and Development (RD) sites of the North (Ouénou), Center (Miniffi), and South (Zouzouvou). Three maize producers were selected at each RD site, for nine maize producers. The experimental design was a randomized complete block of three treatments with three replications. The different treatments were (i) Control–farmer's practice, (ii) R. intraradices + 50% of the recommended dose of NPK and urea, and (iii) 100% of the recommended dose of NPK and urea. Soil samples from the different RD sites were taken at a depth of 0–20 cm before sowing for chemical analysis. The different growth parameters (height, crown diameter, and leaf area), grain yield, and endomycorrhizal infection of maize plants were evaluated. The results showed that the soils were moderately acidic (5.5 ≤ pH waters ≤ 6.8) and low in organic matter (0.95 ≤ 33 OM ≤ 1.17) regardless of the study area. The greater maize grain yield was recorded with application of 100% of the recommended dose of NPK and urea, and R. intraradices + 50% of the recommended dose of NPK and urea. In the RD sites at the South, Center, and North recorded with R. intraradices + 50% of recommended dose of NPK and urea, the grain yields of 1.9, 3.4, and 1.74 t/ha with an increase of 28, 38.21, and 13.21%, respectively, compared with farmer's practice. Mycorrhization frequencies in plants treated with Ri¹ N15P15K15 vary between 37.44 and 51.67% in the three zones. The results of the current study have proven the potential use of R. intraradices in sustainable intensification of maize production in Benin.

Resource efficiency in ecological technologies of tomato production in the conditions of hydrothermal climate tension

The complex conditions of the modern period of agricultural production development determine the need to develop new elements of technologies adapted to modern conditions of land use. The article presents the results of studies of the growth regulator effect on obtaining high-quality tomato products. It is proved that the organosilicon preparation Energy-M stimulated the growth and development of plants, increased the productivity of tomatoes in the acutely arid conditions of the Lower Volga region. The object of the study was the tomato variety Hercules. The highest yield of tomatoes with the formation of a large number of large fruits with good taste indicators was obtained on the variety Hercules on the variant with pre-sowing seed treatment, as well as non-root treatment of plants in the initial growth period and in the budding-flowering phase. The use of the Energy-M growth regulator on tomato culture is an effective measure. It is recommended that producers of high-quality vegetable products widely use this drug against the background of sufficient mineral nutrition by soaking the seeds before sowing and processing the plant throughout the growing season.

Molecular docking and DFT analyses of magnetic cobalt doped MoS2 and BN nanocomposites for catalytic and antimicrobial explorations

Amongst 2D materials beyond graphene, MoS2 and BN are considered potentially strong candidates for use in numerous ecological technologies such as treatment of polluted water and protection against bacterial infections. With these prospects in mind, nanocomposite was employed in this study as a remedy for problems related to environmental health. Nanocomposites of both host materials (MoS2 and BN) were synthesized via applying liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) strategy towards their bulk counterparts. In order to enhance its catalytic and antibacterial ability, host materials were doped with cobalt (Co) which serves as transition metal. This dopant was selected due to its band-less and charge facilitation characteristics. A hydrothermal approach was employed to prepare 4 and 8 wt.% concentrations of Co to synthesize doped samples. Several characterization techniques combined with Density Functional Theory (DFT) were engaged for the evaluation of chemical, structural, electrical, morphological, and finally optical features of the synthesized products. The formation of 2H-phase of MoS2 and hexagonal phase of BN was affirmed through XRD pattern; band gap analysis and facilitation charges by dopant were mirrored by PL findings. Molecular vibration fingerprints of both materials were expressed via Raman analysis. Computation shows that the Co dopants incorporate many electronic states around the Fermi level and close to the valence band maximum of MoS2 and BN monolayers and induce p-doping, which is implied a decrease in bandgap energy. Our findings also indicate that Co doping with concentrations of 4 and 8 wt.% can introduce magnetic states into the systems leading to magnetism. These characteristics serve to strengthen the catalytic performance of formulated products that were used to treat methylene blue (MB), a commonly determined pollutant in industrial wastewater. The 8 wt.% Co-doped MoS2 showed superior performance by degrading up to 98% MB, as envisaged by its enhanced catalytic reduction. The in vitro results revealed synergism and a more potent effect of doped MoS2 and BN nanocomposite for G+ compared with G- isolates. Antibacterial potential of Co-doped MoS2 and BN nanocomposite against both G+ and G- strains suggested through in vitro study was further confirmed throughout in silico molecular docking study against selected protein targets, which highlighted their biocidal mechanism and recommended them as prospective inhibitors of PBP4, ddlB, and FabI enzymes from S. aureus and E. coli.

Soil fertility status of soils of Sudano-Sahelian and Humid Forest Zones of West Africa and some soil management strategies for smallholder farms

Knowledge of soil properties and fertility status of farmers’ fields are basic information needed by Agricultural Extension Agents to guide farmers on wise and sustainable management of soil. The properties of some cultivated fields in the Sudano-Sahelian of Ghana and Humid Forest zones of Nigeria were studied. The aim was to quantify the soil properties and fertility status with a view to prescribing low input ecological technologies that would improve and sustain soil productivity. Core samples were taken from the depth of 0 – 40 cm in eleven and eight farmers’ fields in the Upper East Ghana and South East Nigeria, respectively. Soil properties determined using standard methods were; pH, TN, SOC, SOM, P, Exchangeable bases, EA, base saturation, PSD, WP, FC, bulk density, P and SHC. Both soils were sand in texture (> 700 g kg-1). The WP and FC were either below or within the lower border of critical levels. This shows crops in all the fields are prone to incipient wilting under any short dry spell. The chemical properties of the Sahelian-Sahelian zone showed that pH averaged 6.54 (moderate acidic), SOC 16 g kg-1 (low), TN 13 g kg-1 (very high), P, 18 mg kg-1 (moderate), K 0.23 C mol kg-1) (moderate), ECEC 8.18 C mol kg-1(medium fertility class). In the Humid Forest zones, pH was 4.38 (extremely acidic), SOC 7.41 g kg-1 (very low), N 1.78 g kg-1 (low), P 15.94 mg kg-1 (moderate), K 1.94 C mol kg-1 (very high) and ECEC 8.8 C mol kg-1 (medium fertility class). The fertility class indicates that the soils will response to external inputs and wise land management practices. A mix of Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF), multipurpose tree species, contour cultivation, organic mulch, multiple crop mixture, under vetiver grass buffer strip is recommended.

Connotation, innovation and vision of “carbon neutrality”

Global climate change caused by geological processes is one of the main causes of the 5 global mass extinctions in geological history. Human industrialization activities have caused serious damage to the ecosystem, the greenhouse effect of atmospheric CO2 has intensified, and the living environment is facing threats and challenges. Carbon neutrality is the active action and common goal of mankind in the face of the climate change crisis, therefore, probing into its theoretical and technological connotation, scientific and technological innovation system has far-reaching significance and broad prospects. Studies indicate that (1) Carbon neutrality reflects the theoretical connotations of “energy science” and “carbon neutrality science”, including technical connotations of carbon emission reduction, zero carbon emission, negative carbon emission, and carbon trading. (2) Carbon neutrality spawns new industries such as carbon industry centering on CO2 capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS, or CO2 capture and storage CCS), and hydrogen industry centering on green hydrogen. “Gray carbon” and “black carbon” are the two application attributes of CO2. “Carbon+”, “Carbon−”, and “Carbon=” are three carbon-neutral products and technologies. (3) China faces three major challenges in achieving the goal of carbon neutrality: first, energy transition is large in scale and the cycle is short; Second, there are many problems in the process of energy transition, such as security uncertainties, economic utilization, and unpredictable disruptive technologies; Third, after transition, we may face new key techno-logical “bottlenecks” and “broken chain” of key mineral resources. (4) Based on current knowledge to predict the top 10 disruptive technologies and industries in the energy field: underground coal gasification, in-situ conversion process of medium and low-mature shale oil, CCUS/CCS, hydrogen energy and fuel cells, bio-photovoltaic power generation, space-based solar power generation, optical storage smart micro-grid, super energy storage, controllable nuclear fusion, wisdom energy Internet. Five strategic projects will be implemented, including energy conservation and efficiency improvement, carbon reduction and sequestration, scientific and technological innovation, emergency reserve and policy support. (5) In the future, different types of energy will have different orientations. Coal will play the role of ensuring the national energy strategy “reserve” and “guarantee the bottom line”. Petroleum will play the role of ensuring national energy security “urgent need” and the “cornerstone” of raw materials in people's livelihood. Natural gas will play the role in ensuring national energy “safety” and “best partner” of new energy. New energy will play the role in ensuring the “replacement” and “main force” of the national energy strategy. (6) Carbon neutrality is a major practice of the green industrial revolution, carbon reduction energy revolution, and ecological technology revolution, which will bring new and profound changes to human society, the environment and the economy. (7) Carbon neutrality needs to follow the four principles of “disruptive breakthroughs in technology, guarantee of energy security, realization of economic feasibility, and controllable social stability”. We should rely on technological innovation and management changes to ensure the realization of national energy “independence” and carbon neutrality goal, and make China's contribution to the construction of a livable earth, green development, and ecological civilization.

Application of Ecological Technology of Concrete Retaining Wall in Urban Dyke

Traditional concrete and mortar-masonry retaining walls are mature, safe and reliable, widely used in urban river embankment, and play a great role in disaster prevention and mitigation in towns. However, such retaining walls lack of ecological characteristics. In order to give the traditional concrete and mortar-masonry retaining walls ecological characteristics and provide conditions for the unfortunate people who fell into the water to rescue themselves and go ashore, two traditional retaining wall ecological technologies were invented, which are suitable for new retaining walls and existing retaining walls. When the new retaining wall is built, the slope ratio of the wall should be appropriately slowed down and several rows of planting grooves should be arranged. For the retaining wall that has been built, the planting groove is anchored on the wall. Landscape plants are selected and planted in the planting groove, and automatic irrigation system is arranged according to the needs. The engineering application shows that applying these two technologies to river improvement projects at the same time can form a full coverage of ecological beauty on the water-side wall of the traditional retaining wall. People who fall into the water can climb on the planting trough and wait for rescue, or climb along the planting trough to reach the goal of harmonious coexistence between people and water.

Ecological technologies for environmental objects remediation

The greening of urban areas, including roofs of buildings, can be used as a means to reduce the concentration of pollutants in the air in large cities. In the context of high built-up density, when it is impossible to pick out free space, greening the roofs of existing buildings is a sole solution. In this paper, the movement of air flows and the diffusion of fine dust particles smaller than 2.5 microns (PM2.5) are modelled for a Moscow region with consideration of external non-stationary factors. The computation is made in ENVI-met program via the CFD analysis. In the future, it is planned to assess options for complex landscaping of the studied site, including greening the roofs of buildings along areas with a high content of fine particles, in order to reduce the concentration of PM2.5.

Sulfuric acid modified clinoptilolite as a solid green catalyst for solvent-free α-pinene isomerization process

The isomerization of α-pinene – a renewable bioresource – was investigated as a relatively simple method for the syntheses of camphene and limonene, industrially important products. The catalytic activity of H 2 SO 4 -modified clinoptilolite was evaluated without any solvent and the results show its applicability as a novel, green, reusable and promising catalyst in organic syntheses. The method is cost-effective and energy efficient because of the use of relatively low temperatures: at 30 °C and after 1 h, conversion was equal to 18%. In addition, this process has a short-time performance: 100% conversion after only 4 min at 70 °C. Camphene and limonene were the products that were formed with the highest selectivities of 50% and 30%, respectively. Clinoptilolite modified by H 2 SO 4 solutions (0.01–2 M) as a catalyst for α-pinene isomerization has not been described up to now. The catalyst samples were characterized using various instrumental methods (XRD, FT-IR, UV–Vis, SEM, and XRF). The nitrogen sorption method was used to determine the textural parameters, and the acid-sites concentration was established with the help of the titration method. The mixtures of compounds were analyzed via gas chromatography (GC). The comprehensive kinetic modeling of α-pinene isomerization over the most active catalyst (clinoptilolite modified by 0.1 M H 2 SO 4 solution) was performed. The first order kinetics of α-pinene conversion was found, and the value of the reaction rate constant at 70 °C was equal to 8.19 h −1 . It was concluded that the high activity of the prepared modified clinoptilolite in α-pinene isomerization is a multifaceted function of textural properties, crystallinity, chemical composition, and acid-sites concentration. • New concept of sustainable and ecological technology of organic syntheses • H 2 SO 4 -modified clinoptilolite is an efficient catalyst for α-pinene isomerization • Cost-effective and energy-efficient process even at low temperatures • Very fast α-pinene isomerization: 100% conversion after 4 min at 70 °C • Camphene and limonene are main products with 50% and 30% respective selectivities

Antioxidants: Classification, Natural Sources, Activity/Capacity Measurements, and Usefulness for the Synthesis of Nanoparticles.

Natural extracts are the source of many antioxidant substances. They have proven useful not only as supplements preventing diseases caused by oxidative stress and food additives preventing oxidation but also as system components for the production of metallic nanoparticles by the so-called green synthesis. This is important given the drastically increased demand for nanomaterials in biomedical fields. The source of ecological technology for producing nanoparticles can be plants or microorganisms (yeast, algae, cyanobacteria, fungi, and bacteria). This review presents recently published research on the green synthesis of nanoparticles. The conditions of biosynthesis and possible mechanisms of nanoparticle formation with the participation of bacteria are presented. The potential of natural extracts for biogenic synthesis depends on the content of reducing substances. The assessment of the antioxidant activity of extracts as multicomponent mixtures is still a challenge for analytical chemistry. There is still no universal test for measuring total antioxidant capacity (TAC). There are many in vitro chemical tests that quantify the antioxidant scavenging activity of free radicals and their ability to chelate metals and that reduce free radical damage. This paper presents the classification of antioxidants and non-enzymatic methods of testing antioxidant capacity in vitro, with particular emphasis on methods based on nanoparticles. Examples of recent studies on the antioxidant activity of natural extracts obtained from different species such as plants, fungi, bacteria, algae, lichens, actinomycetes were collected, giving evaluation methods, reference antioxidants, and details on the preparation of extracts.

Research on the introduction strategy of smart consumption concept in the construction of ecological city

<p>In recent years, eco city construction has become rampant at home and abroad. Some ecological technologies that are committed to reducing energy use are also improving, but the consumption behavior that drives the extensive use of energy is ignored. This paper studies the consumption problems in urban development, summarizes the four development paths of “time balance”, “channel optimization”, “resource sharing” and “streamlining consumption” combined with the concept of “smart consumption”, and further discusses the introduction strategy of the concept of “smart consumption” in the construction of ecological cities.</p>

The Essence of "Green Bonds" and Issues of Effective Management in Georgia

Green bonds can be considered as a model of economic development, that reduces environmental risks and ecological problems, promotes sustainable development, reduces the negative impact on the environment. In addition, it can be considered as a mechanism for the sustainable development and poverty eradication, and its result will also improve the human well-being and social equality. Like any new form of financing, including "green bonds", it is still in its infancy and can be evaluated after some time. We think this financing tool will be useful for financing environmental projects. In addition, the establishment of the new Green Bank (or fund) will facilitate the direct investment or risk mitigation tools, or both, for the climate-related projects. LEDS and NEEAP have independently submitted options for setting up a public organization with a special mandate about green funding. Investors, commercial banks and corporations operating in Georgia may benefit from such a national funding organization for climate change measures to protect their investments from risks. One of the priority directions of ecological relations for Georgia is the creation of normative acts, which enable the unification and harmonization of ecological legislation, including in the field of "green economy". The development of "ecological technologies" is also of great importance for the development of the "green economy". The "green economy" strategy should become a model of sustainable development in the long run. In Summary, Green bonds may have been a good response by governments to restore the pandemic-reduced economic activity. With the reduced liquidity, this could be a good opportunity to access capital and increase investor confidence in the private sector and to attract more investments.
