The Effect of Welding Parameter and Tool Geometry on Mechanical Properties of RZ5-10wt%TiC FSW Joint
Abstract: Friction Stir Welding (FSW) of metal matrix composite (MMC) provides the grain refinement and reinforcement redistribution of the composite used for wide application in aerospace and structural. This wide application needs development of best-suited joining process for MMC which is complicated to unite by the traditional welding process. The paper observed the consequence of the welding parameter and tools’ geometry on the mechanical properties of the friction stir butt welded …

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Nanocrystalline CeO2 and Ce0.95Cu0.05O2 Solid Solution Catalysts Properties and its Applications
Abstract: The Main study and the development of CeO2 and Cu doped CeO2 nanocrystals containing transition-metal species are of crucial importance for understanding the preparation and fabrication of CeO2 and Cu doped CeO2 nanoparticles by solution combustion technique to taken glycine as fuel. Here, we have investigated the effect of Cerium dioxide and Cu dopant ions on the structural properties of Ce1-xCuxO2 nanocrystals (NCs) synthesized via co-precipitation technique. XRD results confirmed …

Evaluating the Environmental Impact of Mining: Procedures, Outcomes, and Sustainable Remediation
Abstract: Mining is necessary for economic growth and getting resources, yet also has a big impact on the environment. This article looks at the different ways that mining affects the environment, such as land degradation, deforestation, water pollution, air pollution, and loss of biodiversity. Mining on the surface and underground can cause soil erosion, damage ecosystems, and pollute groundwater and surface water with heavy metals and harmful compounds. Furthermore, the emission …

Photosynthetic Living Plant–Integrated Cybernetic Sensors for Autonomous Environmental Intelligence
Abstract: The increasing demand for sustainable and autonomous environmental monitoring systems has motivated the development of biologically integrated sensing technologies that combine living organisms with advanced cybernetic intelligence. This study proposes a novel framework of Photosynthetic Living Plant–Integrated Cybernetic Sensors for Autonomous Environmental Intelligence, where living plants act as self-sustaining sensing platforms capable of continuously monitoring environmental conditions without external energy sources. By integrating bioelectrical signal acquisition modules, flexible nanomaterial electrodes, …

Maternal and Infant Pollutant Exposure through Breastfeeding in Industrial Punjab
Abstract: Because of their lasting presence, bioaccumulation in the food chain and/or potential for transferring to infants through breastfeeding, environmentally persistent chemical pollutants, such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl compounds (PFAs), pesticides, heavy metals and industrial emissions, represent significant public health threats. A study was conducted using a structured questionnaire to gather information about maternal demographics (age, education, marital status), how mothers were exposed to environmental contaminants through occupational activities, the ways …

Understanding the Role of Remote Sensing Techniques in Monitoring Air Quality for Effective Adherence to Environmental Impact Assessment Practices in Nigeria
Abstract: The paper reviews the Nigerian Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Act, outlining the established air quality thresholds and emission caps for stationary sources. The standard applies to; common pollutants like sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, particulate matter and nitrogen oxides; toxic metals such as arsenic, nickel, cadmium and mercury; as well as volatile organic compounds, ammonia, antimony, zinc, formaldehyde and radon.It also describes the major classifications of remote sensing applications, including …
