Quantification of environmental impact potentials within the processes of industrial wastewater treatment system

New innovative management system of industrial wastewater is vital to address the current water demands, energy generation, resource conservation, and mitigating environmental impact from the wastewater treatment processes. For these reasons, the impact assessment of industrial wastewater treatment plant is imperative. Here, we quantified the environmental impact potentials within the processes in the wastewater treatment system considering the life cycle perspective. The treatment system comprises chemical and biological phases. The findings showed that hazardous waste (53.4%) appears as the major contributor of the impact potentials, followed by chemical consumption (38.3%), and electricity (7.5%). Other elements such as activated carbon (0.5%), cationic resin (0.2%), anionic resin (0.03%), and enzymes (0.009%) are relatively smalls in terms of the impact. The reuse of hazardous waste for heat recovery system is one of the initiatives to reduce the impact from hazardous waste generation by 12.2% for 1 m3 of treated water. This assessment may serve as a snapshot on the life cycle perspective of industrial wastewater management system in line with circular economy model that emphasizes rethink, reduce, reuse, and recovery efforts in industrial wastewater treatment management systems.

Numerical simulation of bioconvective Casson nanofluid through an exponentially permeable stretching surface

Nanofluids are a very productive etymology of intensifying the process of heat and mass transport systems linked with the industrial and thermal engineering systems. Nanomaterials have effective thermal properties and various applications in our daily life like in heat transfer, electronic cooling systems, energy production and biomedicine and also in the food industry. Keeping the entire motivating potential ramifications of nanoparticles in mind, this work is visualized in the mathematical model developed to show the heat and mass transport behavior of swimming motile organisms in the existence of the magnetic field, heat conduction source, thermal radiation, chemical processes and viscous dissipation. The flow of mass and heat transport under consideration is governed by nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) transformed into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by implementing an eminent method called similarity transform and then numerical results obtained through MATLAB inbuilt package ‘bvp4c’. Numerical solution is visualized through the comparison of Casson fluid results with Newtonian fluid. The impact of numerous nondimensional parameters of temperature, heat transfer, velocity and concentration profiles involved in governing equations is debated and visualized graphically. Furthermore, the effects of parameters and local Nusselt number, motile organism’s number, Biot number, Sherwood number, thermal radiation and microorganism concentration are elaborated through graphical representation. From these results, we clearly see that the velocity profile shows a decrement by raising the values of Buoyancy ratio Nr and Bioconvection Rayleigh number Nc, thermal profile depicted propagation by incrementing the values of Biot and radiation variables, concentration profile decreases by incrementing Lewis parameter Le and microorganisms profile revealed an increase and decrease by the presence of magnetic M and bioconvection Lewis variable Lb, respectively.

Production of polyhydroxyalkanoates from renewable resources: a review on prospects, challenges and applications.

Bioplastics replace synthetic plastics of petrochemical origin, which contributes challenge to both polymer quality and economics. Novel polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA)-composite materials, with desirable product quality, could be developed, thus targeting the global plastics market, in the coming years. It is possible that PHA can be a greener substitute for their petroleum-based competitors since they are simplydecomposed, which may lessen the pressure on municipal and industrial waste management systems. PHA production has proven to be the bottleneck in industrial application and commercialization because of the high price of carbon substrates and downstream processes required to achieve reliability. Bacterial PHA production by these municipal and industrial wastes, which act as a cheap, renewable carbon substrate, eliminates waste management hassles and acts as an efficient substitute for synthetic plastics. In the present review, challenges and opportunities related to the commercialization of polyhydroxyalkanoates are discussed and presented. Moreover, it discusses critical steps of their production process, feedstock evaluation, optimization strategies, and downstream processes. This information may provide us the complete utilization of bacterial PHA during possible applications in packaging, nutrition, medicine, and pharmaceuticals.

The results of a comparative analysis of production planning models for manufacturing execution systems (MES) in the metallurgical industry can also lead to the fact that an enterprise may abandon one model that is already operating in the enterprise and switch to a new, more progressive model that meets all the requirements and development trends market in the steel industry

An experimental investigation of subcooled pool boiling on downward-facing surfaces with microchannels

Upward-facing pooling boiling enhancement employing micro-structure has been extensively studied, yet it is rarely applied in the cooling system in microgravity or In-Vessel Retention (IVR) in nuclear industry. The main challenge lies in effective removal of the vapor columns and replenishment of the fresh liquid without the aid of the buoyancy force. To solve the issue, additional pressure induced by microchannel is introduced to yield spontaneous bubble removal and liquid replenishment in the present work. Downward-facing pool boiling of subcooled FC-72 are conducted on Plain, Straight- and Expanding-Channeled Surfaces (PS, SCS and ECS) with visualization experiments. The superheat at the onset of nucleate boiling (ONB) on channeled surfaces was decreased about 3 K compared to that of the PS, and the maximum heat transfer coefficient (HTC) of the SCS and ECS were improved by 149 % and 217 %, respectively. Compared to PS, the channeled surfaces are more independent from saturated pressure, displaying high and relatively consistent heat transfer coefficients under various pressure conditions. Additionally, with the increasing subcooling degree, channeled surfaces showed greater enhancement in heat transfer performance. Proved by the bubble dynamics, the ECS enabled a directional movement and effective removal of vapor bubbles even though the buoyancy force cannot be utilized under downward-facing condition. The proposed enhancement mechanism attributed to separated vapor–liquid flow paths is independent on gravity and achieves a satisfied pool boiling performance, thus is expected to provide a promising solution for thermal management systems in aerospace and nuclear industry.

A Systematic Literature Review on Data-Driven Residential and Industrial Energy Management Systems

The energy transition and the resulting expansion of renewable energy resources increasingly pose a challenge to the energy system due to their volatile and intermittent nature. In this context, energy management systems are central as they coordinate energy flows and optimize them toward economic, technical, ecological, and social objectives. While numerous scientific publications study the infrastructure, optimization, and implementation of residential energy management systems, only little research exists on industrial energy management systems. However, results are not easily transferable due to differences in complexity, dependency, and load curves. Therefore, we present a systematic literature review on state-of-the-art research for residential and industrial energy management systems to identify trends, challenges, and future research directions. More specifically, we analyze the energy system infrastructure, discuss data-driven monitoring and analysis, and review the decision-making process considering different objectives, scheduling algorithms, and implementations. Thus, based on our insights, we provide numerous recommendations for future research in residential and industrial energy management systems.

Assessing the Level of Resilience in Construction Safety Management Systems in the Ghanaian Construction Industry

The traditional safety management approach is a control-oriented approach that seeks to direct and control workers to complete the expected company safety standards and regulations. This approach to safety management is partially compatible with the growing complexity of contemporary organisations. Therefore, a more comprehensive and modern approach to safety management is necessary, hence, the resilience management system. This study is part of a PhD programme. The study’s objective was to establish the level of resilience capabilities of construction safety management systems (SMSs) in Ghana’s construction industry. The targeted respondents were health and safety (HS) managers, managing directors, project managers, site engineers and construction managers of D1K1, D2K2, D3K3 and D4K4 construction companies. The list of 144 construction companies surveyed in this study was obtained from the Association of Building and Civil Engineering Contractors Ghana and deemed to be in good standing. The study used purposive sampling techniques to reach out to the respondents. Descriptive statistics, a one-sample t-test, a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and its post hoc test and the resilience analysis grid (RAG) were employed. The results revealed that out of the seven SMSs assessed, only “policy” measured up to the acceptable level of resilience, thus establishing that the entire safety management system (SMS) is not resilient. These findings have empirically established that SMSs in the Ghanaian construction industry are not resilient. The results further highlight the necessity for contractors and stakeholders to switch from a conventional safety management strategy to a more proactive safety management approach and to establish a customised method to a more robust safety management system.

User Station Security Protection Method Based on Random Domain Name Detection and Active Defense

The power monitoring system is the most important production management system in the power industry. As an important part of the power monitoring system, the user station that lacks grid binding will become an important target of network attacks. In order to perceive the network attack events on the user station side in time, a method combining real-time detection and active defense of random domain names on the user station side was proposed. Capsule network (CapsNet) combined with long short-term memory network (LSTM) was used to classify the domain names extracted from the traffic data. When a random domain name is detected, it sent instructions to routers and switched to update their security policies through the remote terminal protocol (Telnet), or shut down the service interfaces of routers and switched to block network attacks. The experimental results showed that the use of CapsNet combined with LSTM classification algorithm can achieve 99.16% accuracy and 98% recall rate in random domain name detection. Through the Telnet protocol, routers and switches can be linked to make active defense without interrupting services.

DIGITALIZATION'S IMPACT ON INDUSTRIAL MANAGEMENT AND MARKETING: ADDRESSING THE CHALLENGES OF OUR TIME

The article provides a specification of the main aspects of digitization's impact on industrial management and marketing. A distinctive feature of the research is that it convincingly demonstrates, based on logical analysis and synthesis methods, that the large-scale invasion of Russia into Ukraine did not halt the processes of digitization in industrial management and marketing. Using logical operations of comparison and abstraction, it has been proven that the processes of implementing digital technologies and tools for optimization and automation of management and marketing processes in industrial enterprises continue to evolve, albeit with a shift in their nature from security-oriented to reactive. This process entails the situational transformation of traditional work methods and the utilization of digital resources, which serves as a response to the challenges of the time, shaped by the ever-changing needs of industrial enterprises. The prospects for further research include the development of a model for the continuous adaptation of industrial management and marketing systems to changes. This model could be based on the integration of digital technologies, data, and analytics, enabling organizations to become more flexible and responsive to the challenges of the time.

A Dynamic Optimal Scheduling Strategy for Multi-Charging Scenarios of Plug-in-Electric Vehicles Over a Smart Grid

Green transportation has become our top priority due to the depletion of the earth’s natural resources and rising pollutant emission levels. Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) are seen as a solution to the problem because they are more cost and environment friendly. Due to rapid industrialization and government incentives for zero-emission transportation, a significant challenge is also constituted in power grids by the self-interested nature of PEVs, with the asymmetry of information between the charging power demand and supply sides. In this paper, we propose an optimal strategy in industrial energy management system, based on evolutionary computing, to characterize different charging situations. The proposed approach considers stochastic, off-peak, peak, and electric power research institute charging scenarios for attaining the vehicle-to-grid capacity in terms of optimal cost and demand. An extensive scheduling of charging cases is studied in order to avoid power outages or scenarios in which there is a significant supply-demand mismatch. Furthermore, the proposed scheme model also reduces the greenhouse gases emission from generation side to build a sustainable generation infrastructure, which maximizes the utility of fuel-based energy production in the presence of certain nonlinear constraints. The simulation analysis demonstrates that PEVs can be charged and discharged in a systematic manner. The participation of transferable load through the proposed methodology can significantly reduce the economic costs, pollutant impacts, efficiency, and security of power grid operation.
