Metropolitan Solid Waste Arrangement Best Application
Abstract: Solid waste management is a systematic process minimizing solid waste in an area. By this method to control of solid waste as well as alternative useful for solid waste as resources utilization. Municipal solid waste management (MSWM) is one of the major environmental problems of Indian cities. Improper management of municipal solid waste (MSW) causes hazards to inhabitants. Various studies reveal that about 80% of MSW is disposed of unsafely …

Effects of solvents at a systemic level, and their prevention
Abstract: The anthropogenic activities derive in the production and emission of pollutants. These substances are used in industry and at home to break down raw materials, products and residual substances. Its impact on public health is significantly adverse. The solvents are inhaled, ingested, absorbed. Chronic exposure can cause various pathologies at a systemic level including cancer, while acute exposure can lead to death. The purpose of this research is to show …

The Specificity of Antioxidants: A Review
Abstract: Antioxidants are substances that provide protection to the body against reactive chemical species. When oxidative damage is not prevented or reversed, some pathology may occur. Naturally, there are enzymatic antioxidants (example: superoxide dismutase) and non-enzymatic (example: glutathione) in the cell, and some are incorporated through the diet (example: vitamins). These substances exhibit specificity when carrying out their activity, that is why it is necessary to experiment their effects on different …

Assessment of the Potential of Permeable Concrete using Blast Furnace Slag in Treating the Highway Side Storm Water
Abstract: Storm water from highway side contains organic and inorganic pollutants including significant amount of heavy metals which need to be treated before the storm water is let into the natural water bodies. In this study, the potential of pervious concrete using blast furnace slag was assessed for pollutants removal from the highway side storm water. Removal efficiencies in respect of nitrate, phosphate, chemical oxygen demand (COD), TSS, lead, chromium, nickel …
