Holistic Approach for Creating Environmentally Friendly Campus

To achieve an environmentally friendly campus, UMN operates gas engine generator with co-generation system. Waste heat from generator powers absorption chiller for air conditioning. UMN benefits clean energy sources, reduced pollution, and energy saving. The next phases rely on energy consumption reduction by applying passive design. Two towers were designed with double-skin facade. The perforated aluminum panel reduces solar heat gain on the building wall while still allows sunlight into the room for natural lighting. Lower room temperature will reduce cooling load, which will save energy. Combined with energyefficient appliances and natural air ventilation for corridors and open space, this concept saves more than half of energy consumption. Both towers were awarded the first and second winners of ASEAN Energy Award in 2014 and 2019. Various trees have been planted and produce oxygen to supply fresh air to create comfortable studying environment without air conditioning. To reduce carbon footprint, UMN provides shuttle bus and bike-sharing service. A holistic approach is implemented by recycling and conserving water with sewage water treatment and infiltration wells surrounding the campus. As part of the sustainability program, UMN has also utilized solar energy.

Identification and monitoring of fentanyls-related substances in east China sewage water samples by LC-MS for drug enforcement

Fentanyls abuse is a persistent international concern. New fentanyl derivatives are constantly appearing, circumventing national and international laws. In this study, laboratory degradation experiment with different conditions such as pH, light, temperature and oxygen availability were compared to improve the understanding of the fentanyls degradation pathways. Twelve major degradants of sufentanil and alfentanil were detected and identified together using UHPLC-QTOF-MS. A total of thirty nine fentanyls including twelve typical fentanyl new psychoactive substances, eighteen manufacturing process-related substances and nine key degradants of sufentanil and alfentanil were screened in 120 sewage water samples collected from 20 sewage water treatment plants chosen among 6 urban cities in east China from July to August in 2020 using a validated UHPLC-MS/MS method. Three fentanyls (fentanyl, sufentanil, alfentanil), seven degradants and six manufacturing process-related substances were found in the test samples. The study could provide a useful tool for the monitoring of the abuses, illegal manufacturing or pharmaceuticals related pollutions of fentanyls and their analogs.

Effect of Treated Sewage Water Irrigation on Yield and Quality of Mulberry

Aim: Evaluation of raw and treated sewage water irrigation on yield and quality of V1 mulberry.
 Study design: The Experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four replications and six treatments comprises of different proportions of raw sewage water, treated sewage water and borewell water.
 Place and duration of study: The study was conducted during Rabi 2019 in pre-established irrigated V1 mulberry garden at Department of Sericulture, University of Agricultural Sciences, GKVK, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India.
 Results: Data recorded on quality parameters of mulberry revealed that raw sewage water irrigation significantly increased the leaf nutrient content such as N (3.68%), P (0.4%), K(1.91%), S (0.34%), Zn (30.08 ppm), Mn (103.75 ppm), Fe (373.75 ppm) and also leaf yield (804.31 g/plant) is significantly increased in 100% raw sewage water irrigation, whereas higher leaf Ca (2.06%) and Mg (0.71%) content was recorded in 100% borewell water irrigated plot, and the lowest leaf N (2.82%), P (0.28%), K (1.33%), S (0.17%), Zn (18.03 ppm), Mn (75.75 ppm), and Fe (336.5 ppm) content was found lower in 100% borewell water irrigation.

Plan B water assessment: Efficiency and circularity for agricultural and municipal adaptation to water scarcity

Municipal supply of water under climate variations, growing population, uncertainty, and scarcity, requires water planners to devise feasible and sustainable water sourcing plans; especially for territories relying on groundwater. The conventional ways to cope with water scarcity will no longer guarantee reaping the maximum benefits of declining available water resources. Efficiency and circularity of water are claimed as essential criteria for seeking solutions in designing long-term supply management. A Plan B water assessment applied to a group of municipalities in dry areas of Colombia, is proposed as a hydro-economic model aimed at providing inputs for water resources planning, in which the depletable and common-pool character of aquifers are incorporated. A declination speed index is introduced in two ways: the surface → water table distance and water table → saturated thickness distance. This issue should not be overlooked if spatial differentiation in water tables is incorporated in groundwater extraction permits analysis for multiple and convergent water users. Research results are promising for sustainability of water management in dry areas around the world. Respect to status quo situation a 22% of efficiency gain might be achieved in the next 20 years in Sucre – Colombia, under an efficient model of water consumption. If an efficient and circular water management model is endeavored, multiple gains would be harvested for the benefit of water users and ecosystems relying on aquifers. Increased efficiency is mostly driven by 30 million m3 sewage water recirculated in agriculture, which in turn would prevent aquifer extraction for this activity. In business-as-usual scheme, water efficiency gap will be wider; extraction costs will rise to prohibitive levels for low income municipalities; the declining water tables will oblige to make new punches by simultaneous water users and water declination index calculated would reflect a precipitous decay. Research results provide empirical evidence to the discussion on possible solutions for sustainable and efficient water management as stated in Sustainable Development Goals; specifically target goal 6.4 determines that water efficiency and sustainability in water withdrawals should be accomplished. Local setting on water resources availability, competition on resources, types of users, sewage water treatment technology, energy costs, and institutions in time and place, would determine the replicability of research results.

Analysis and Classification of Active Sludge in wastewater

Active Sludge particles in wastewater or sewage water treatment plants are analyzed. Based on the analysis report, the water is treated to improve the quality of water so that it can be reused. Microscopic images of water samples are obtained from municipal Active Sludge wastewater treatment plants for analysis, so that particles can be viewed clearly. A method that exactly determines the length of filamentous bacteria and flocs segmented from the images is proposed in this paper. Texture and shape features are extracted from the filaments and flocs. An SVM classifier is used to classify the flocs and filaments using the features extracted. Based on the distribution of sludge particles in a particular area, Artificial intelligence is used to find the process of chemical treatment. This helps in treatment of wastewater for further reuse.

Occurrence, monitoring and risk assessment of toxic substances in sewage water treatment plants: A case study, great Cairo, Egypt.

An evaluation process on the validity of wastewater treatment plants effluents for irrigation was done. Chemical and microbial pollutants were measured occasionally in five WWTPs spread in great Cairo, Egypt. The results revealed that WWTPs used secondary treatment (Chlorination) were had the capability to scrape much amount of microbial pollutants, while the units that have only primary treatments were unable to eliminate the microbial organisms. Although the processes used at WWTPs were unspecific for inorganic contaminants removal, metals were reduced in effluents to more than 50 % about the influents. This reduce was attributed to the adsorption of metals on activated sludge which used in aeration stage. In spite of low concentration values of heavy metals in the effluents, these values were conducted to cause hazard effects for aquatic organisms especially Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn based on predict no effect concentration criteria. Water quality index was calculated to identify the applicability of WWTPs effluents for sign in irrigation. The results cleared that the effluents of all units studied weren’t applicable for irrigation purpose. These consequences can affect directly on biological cycles. Thus it seems that more consideration of bio conservation protocols is so important.

Impact of treated sewage water on nutrient status of alfisols and vegetable crops

This study was conducted to determine the impact on the nutrient status of soil and vegetable crops irrigated with the treated sewage water. Three samples of water and five samples of soil and five commonly grown vegetables viz. radish, carrot, spinach, cauliflower, and potato were collected from Ganjia, Arail and Dandi located in Naini, Allahabad (India). The water samples were analysed for pH, EC, and heavy metals (Pb2+, Cr3+, Cd2+ and Ni2+) concentration. Water samples from all the sites were alkaline with EC below the safe limits. The soil and plant samples from all the three sites showed that Gangia recorded the highest value of EC (dS m-1), organic carbon (OC) (%), available NPK (kg ha-1), and micronutrients concentration (Mn2+, Zn2+ and Fe2+) (mg kg-1) whereas, the lowest concentration was recorded at Dandi followed by Arail. The soil samples collected from all three sites were alkaline. The nutrient status (N, P and K) showed the highest value in potato in the three sites, whereas manganese and zinc showed the highest value in spinach and iron in carrot. The study concludes that treated sewage water used for irrigation has a positive impact on nutrient status in soils and as well as in vegetable crops.

Biochemical and histopathological effects in muscular tissue of carp fish (Labeo rohita, Hamilton 1822) following exposure to untreated and treated sewage water.

Present work describes a laboratory study aiming at assessing the impact of sewage treatment plant (STP) effluents on fish health by means of biochemical and histopathological biomarkers in muscular tissue of fish. Labeo rohita (7.62 ±0.25 cm, 8.25±0.32 g) was exposed to sub-lethal concentrations of untreated (UT) and treated (T) sewage water obtained from STP, Ludhiana, India. Following the determination of the 96h lethal concentration (LC50), the fish were exposed to control (de-chlorinated tap water), treated sewage water, 1/10th of LC50 UT and 1/20th of LC50 UT sewage water. The experiment was conducted for the period of 60 days. Experimental results depicted significant reduction (p<0.05) in muscle-somatic index of 1/10th LC50 UT and 1/20th LC50 UT groups compared to control and treated groups. Fish toxicity induced by untreated sewage water was evident from the significant decrease (p<0.05) in the levels of proteins and significant increase (p<0.05) in content of total lipids in muscular tissue of exposed group fingerlings. Drastic changes in the fatty acids profile and severe histological abnormalities viz. shortening of muscle bundles, edema, hyper-vacuolization, elongation of muscle bundles, gap formation in myofibrils, degenerated myotomes, hemorrhage, inter-myofibrillar space, necrosis, were also recorded in muscular tissue of exposed fingerlings. The intensity of muscular damage in L.rohita was found to increase with increase in duration of exposure. Results demonstrated that untreated sewage water could potentially induce physiological stress and somatic cell toxicity in fish L.rohita. Genotoxicity studies on germ cells of L.rohita fingerlings are further suggested to examine the genotoxic potential of untreated sewage water at high concentrations; this is especially of interest given that many effluents are genotoxic to fish.

Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA genes reveals a unique microbial community in three anaerobic sludge digesters of Dubai.

Understanding the microbial communities in anaerobic digesters, especially bacteria and archaea, is key to its better operation and regulation. Microbial communities in the anaerobic digesters of the Gulf region where climatic conditions and other factors may impact the incoming feed are not documented. Therefore, Archaeal and Bacterial communities of three full-scale anaerobic digesters, namely AD1, AD3, and AD5 of the Jebel Ali Sewage water Treatment Plant (JASTP) were analyzed by Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA genes. Among bacteria, the most abundant genus was fermentative bacteria Acetobacteroides (Blvii28). Other predominant bacterial genera in the digesters included thermophilic bacteria (Fervidobacterium and Coprothermobacter) and halophilic bacteria like Haloterrigena and Sediminibacter. This can be correlated with the climatic condition in Dubai, where the bacteria in the incoming feed may be thermophilic or halophilic as much of the water used in the country is desalinated seawater. The predominant Archaea include mainly the members of the phyla Euryarchaeota and Crenarchaeota belonging to the genus Methanocorpusculum, Metallosphaera, Methanocella, and Methanococcus. The highest population of Methanocorpusculum (more than 50% of total Archaea), and other hydrogenotrophic archaea, is in agreement with the high population of bacterial genera Acetobacteroides (Blvii28) and Fervidobacterium, capable of fermenting organic substrates into acetate and H2. Coprothermobacter, which is known to improve protein degradation by establishing syntrophy with hydrogenotrophic archaea, is also one of the digesters' dominant genera. The results suggest that the microbial community in three full-scale anaerobic digesters is different. To best of our knowledge this is the first detailed report from the UAE.

Recent development in antimicrobial activity of biopolymer-inorganic nanoparticle composites with water disinfection potential: a comprehensive review.

Nowadays, water-borne diseases including hepatitis remain the critical health challenge due to the inadequate supply of potable and safe water for human activities. The major cause is that the pathogenic microorganisms causing diseases have developed resistance against common techniques used by sewage water treatment plants for water disinfection. Therefore, there is a need to improve these conventional water treatment techniques by taking into consideration the application of nanotechnology for wastewater purification. The main aim of this paper is to provide a review on the synthesis of biopolymer-inorganic nanoparticle composites (BINCs), their used as antimicrobial compounds for water disinfection, as well as to elaborate on their antimicrobial mechanism of action. The microbial properties affecting the activity of antimicrobial compounds are also evaluated.

The combination effect of preozonation and CNTs layer modification on low-pressure membrane fouling control in treating NOM and EfOM

In this study, the combination effect of preozonation and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) layer modification on low-pressure membrane (LPM) fouling control was systematically investigated. To understand the alleviation mechanism of the hybrid process, natural organic matter (NOM) from IHSS and effluent organic matter (EfOM) from actual sewage effluent were both selected as the typical organic foulants presented in actual surface water and wastewater. A dead-end continuous flow model combined with programmable logic control system was used to operate four membrane filtration units and their backwash processes. With a constant permeates flux, the fouling resistant of CNT modified LPM after preozonation could be evaluated according to the increase in transmembrane pressure (TMP). The results revealed that the hybrid approach of preozonation and CNTs modification could significantly improve the anti-fouling ability of LPM, reduce the backwash frequency, and improve the reversibility of membrane fouling. During the filtration of EfOM and NOM, preozonation improved the water treatment capacity of the CNTs modified membranes. The experiment of mass balance revealed that preozonation enhanced the recoverability of CNTs modified membrane and greatly increased its operation time in treating EfOM and NOM. The molecular weight distribution as well as EEM analysis demonstrated the dissimilar characteristics of EfOM and NOM, which caused the different treatment efficiency by preozonation and CNT modification. The mechanism of EfOM/NOM fouling on LPM was summarized as the primary blocking by medium-MW EfOM/NOM. CNTs modification had a better effect on the control of LPM fouling when treating EfOM, as it removed the medium-MW EfOM by adsorption and prevented the pores blockage of the original PVDF membrane. Preozonation had a better effect on the control of LPM fouling when treating NOM, as it greatly changed the MWD of NOM by removing medium-MW NOM. The combination effect of the hybrid preozonation and CNTs modification resulted in the most effective fouling control of LPM by both decreasing the medium-MW and large-MW EfOM/NOM. At the same time, it decreased irreversible fouling related with membrane pore blocking. The hybrid approach demonstrated its promising application for LPM fouling control in actual sewage water and surface water treatment process.

Cavern fire safety – overview of requirements and pragmatic solutions in Hong Kong

Hong Kong’s steep hilly terrain limits the growth of surface urban areas. In response to the society’s needs for land to support social and economic developments, the Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is actively exploring the use of caverns as one of the innovative measures to supplement Hong Kong’s land resources. The development of cavern space is an attractive option to meet the land demand not only for “not-in-my-backyard” (nimby) type public utilities but also for a wide spectrum of uses including commercial, industrial and community type facilities. The development of cavern fire safety design in Hong Kong evolved from the first cavern project in around 1980s. The design guideline “Guide to Fire Safety Design for Caverns” was jointly established by Building Authority and Fire Services Department in 1994, by referring to overseas and local experience consolidated in the Study of the Potential Use of Underground Space (SPUN) in 1990. This guideline however was developed with a focus on caverns for use by low population public utilities such as sewage treatment works and water service reservoirs where the fire load is generally localised, closely controlled and relatively low. Whereas, other prescriptive fire safety guidelines commonly adopted in the Code of Practice for Fire Safety in Buildings 2011 (FS Code) and the Codes of Practice for Minimum Fire Service Installations and Equipment and Inspection, Testing and Maintenance of Installations and Equipment (FSI Code) were developed for typical surface buildings only. The existing fire design guidelines are found to be not fully compatible with the recent expanding spectrum of cavern usage in Hong Kong. Each cavern development type has its unique site setting and fire safety characteristics under the proposed usage (e.g. government facilities, industrial and commercial facilities like concrete batching/rock processing/asphalt production plants, data centres, logistics/warehouse facilities, etc.). Strictly following the prescriptive fire safety requirements and the design guidelines for typical buildings to these usages in cavern will pose immense technical issues/challenges to cavern projects and could also lead to unwarranted impacts on their functional operations. A more coherent fire safety design approach for new cavern projects is therefore needed to facilitate project proponents to plan cavern projects in the future. This paper provides an overview of fire safety issues for cavern development, and also discusses the practical solutions in formulating the associated fire safety strategies which have been adopted in the latest cavern projects in Hong Kong, covering the technical issues on fire resisting construction, means of escape, means of access for firefighting and smoke management.

EFFECT OF USING TREATED SEWAGE WATER ON THE YIELD OF SOME TREE SPECIES COMPARED WITH THOSE IRRIGATED BY FRESH WATER

The main objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of irrigating three types of wood trees (i.e. Cupressus sempervirens, Corymbia citriodora and Khaya senegalensis) by treated wastewater as compared with irrigating by fresh water on their biomass growth rate as well as accumulation of different elements in the soil sites. Two experimental field trials were conducted over two consecutive seasons 2018 and 2019 at the two sites. The first site was in the experimental field at the Serapium Forest Plantation in Ismailia governorate, which was dedicated to the safe disposal of treated sewage water, planted with various wooden trees, while the second farm is located at Groppy Nursery in Giza Governorate- West Bank of the Nile where the fresh water(Nil water) was used for irrigation. The study was conducted on the growth of the wood mass above the soil surface of the three tree species. The results showed highly significant growth differences between both locations. The use of treated sewage led to a superiority in the growth of the living mass for tree species compared to those irrigated with fresh water, as it achieved the stock of the wood mass of trees that irrigated with treated sewage (2.68375, 2.44200 And 1.71693 M3 per/ tree) for Khaya senegalensis, Corymbia citriodora and Cupressus sempervirens trees, respectively. The trees showed that Khaya senegalensis gave the highest .values among the three types. Regarding the presence of minerals and their accumulation of soil under trees, the Serapium Forest Plantation has achieved the highest values for the accumulation of macro and micro-nutrients, as well as the highest percentages for the accumulation of minerals at all studied depths compared to soil samples taken from areas irrigation of freshwater trees. Therefore, continuous monitoring for soil, water, and plants analysis is necessary.

Utilizing the surrounding environment as source of lessons and relate them with the lessons that studied by the student in school are still rarely done nowadays, which make the students not really understand the relation of context and concept. The purpose of this study is to describe the relation between water cycle context with physics concept and other subject base on the result of concept mastery and the ability to identify the problems in the field. The results showed that the correlation between the physics mastery of phase transition with biology concept of evapotranspiration of 8 students is 0.59, the correlation between observations in field to identify the sewage (solid and liquid) on the river with the sewage treatment technology and water pollution control is 1, and correlation between water cycle concept charts and its components with the students ability to identified water sources in the village, neighbourhood and in other places is 0,89.

Between a hygiene rock and a hygienic hard place: Avoiding SARS-CoV-2 while needing environmental exposures for immunity.

Suboptimal understanding of concepts related to hygiene by the general public, clinicians and researchers is a persistent problem in health and medicine. Although hygiene is necessary to slow or prevent deadly pandemics of infectious disease such as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), hygiene can have unwanted effects. In particular, some aspects of hygiene cause a loss of biodiversity from the human body, characterized by the almost complete removal of intestinal worms (helminths) and protists. Research spanning more than half a century documents that this loss of biodiversity results in an increased propensity for autoimmune disease, allergic disorders, probably neuropsychiatric problems and adverse reactions to infectious agents. The differences in immune function between communities with and communities without helminths have become so pronounced that the reduced lethality of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in low-income countries compared to high-income countries was predicted early in the COVID-19 pandemic. This prediction, based on the maladaptive immune responses observed in many cases of COVID-19 in high-income countries, is now supported by emerging data from low-income countries. Herein, hygiene is subdivided into components involving personal choice versus components instituted by community wide systems such as sewage treatment facilities and water treatment plants. The different effects of personal hygiene and systems hygiene are described, and appropriate measures to alleviate the adverse effects of hygiene without losing the benefits of hygiene are discussed. Finally, text boxes are provided to function as stand-alone, public-domain handouts with the goal of informing the public about hygiene and suggesting solutions for biomedical researchers and policy makers.Lay Summary: Hygiene related to sewer systems and other technology can have adverse effects on immune function, and is distinct from personal hygiene practices such as hand washing and social distancing. Dealing with the drawbacks of hygiene must be undertaken without compromising the protection from infectious disease imposed by hygiene.

Comparison of ozonation removal for PPCPs in secondary treated sewage by microbubble generator and ejector

This study analyzed residues of PPCPs in secondary treated sewage water, and their amount eliminated by ozonation processes. A microbubble nozzle and ejector were used to dissolve ozone. To consider a low concentration of PPCPs, a SPE method was performed on samples prior to the analysis. The concentration of dissolved ozone was 4.00 mg/L in the microbubble and 2.49 mg/L in the ejector. To examine elimination trends, the experiment was also performed at a low concentration of ozone, 1/10 of its original concentration. The maximum elimination rate on average was 93.0% in the ejector, higher than that in the microbubble (90.1%), but 16 PPCPs were found to show a relatively high elimination rate in the microbubble, higher than the ejector. Elimination trends with respect to time were distinguished based on inflection point, and 11 PPCPs were concentrated on the latter half of the microbubble after the inflection point at the low concentration of ozone, which was compared to other cases. In the source water, concentrations of 2 PPCPs were higher than the reference toxic concentration based on the QSAR model, but after treatment, only bezafibrate was over the value when the ejector with low ozone injection concentration was applied.

Investigating suitability of treated wastewater for agriculture in Hawassa, Sidama region, Ethiopia

This study is based on the quality of wastewater from Hawassa University surroundings, which was assessed to determine its suitability for irrigation purposes during 2019. Grab samples of influent and the treated water were taken for assessing for quality parameters. The study revealed that the treated water could be used for irrigation purpose with some moderate restrictions. Even though Electrical Conductivity (EC) and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) permit to irrigate fruit trees and fodder crops, there is a risk of soil degradation due to high value of Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR). Results also indicated that carbonate, potassium and phosphate exceeded the specified limits for wastewater reuse in agriculture. Despite increased nutritive elements, continuous use of treated sewage water for irrigation will make the soil acidic. Analysis of soil parameters indicated that there is an increase in nitrogen, phosphate and potassium nutrient levels considerably to benefit crop production but increase in soil EC is a serious concern.&#x0D; Int.
