Performance-Based Fire Safety Assessment and Optimization of a Mixed-Use High-Rise Building Using NBC 2016, Hydraulic Adequacy, and Evacuation Time Analysis
Abstract: This paper presents a performance-based fire safety assessment of a simulated 92 m mixed-use high-rise building containing parking, commercial, office, and residential occupancies. Rather than relying only on prescriptive compliance, the study evaluates whether the installed fire protection strategy can maintain tenable conditions and deliver adequate suppression performance during a credible design fire. Using the base data supplied for the Metro Central Tower case, the work determines fire load density, …

Sustainable Food Packaging: Recent Advances in Biodegradable and Smart Packaging Technologies
Abstract: Fish farming is a vital source of livelihood, income, and nutritional security, especially in regions where aquaculture is embedded in local economies and culture. In India’s Mithila region (Bihar), fish (machh) holds substantial cultural, economic, and nutritional significance. This research analyzes the economics of pond-based fish production in Madhubani district, focusing on Benipatti Block, an area with high pond density. The study investigates determinants of productivity, profitability, and resource utilization, …

Crossroads of Ecology and Medicine: Evaluating Pollutant-Induced Risks to Biodiversity and Human Health
Abstract: Environmental pollution has emerged as a central challenge at the crossroads of ecology and human medicine. The rapid pace of industrialization, urbanization, and agricultural intensification has led to an unprecedented release of pollutants into the air, water, and soil—triggering cascading effects on ecosystems and human health. Pollutants such as particulate matter, heavy metals, pesticides, microplastics, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, and persistent organic pollutants not only degrade biodiversity but also exert multifaceted health …

Performance Appraisal of Two-stage On-site Domestic Wastewater Treatment System under Ambient Environment
Abstract: AbstractThe rapid growth in population has rendered the centralized sewerage systems a non-realistic option in sparsely populated areas. Consequently, an on-site wastewater treatment system (OWTS) is a viable alternative and cost-effective solution of sewerage system. Septic tanks with soil absorption systems are a simple mean of onsite treatment of the domestic wastewater. However septic tanks have low treatment efficiency along with several technical and constructional drawbacks. In order to improve …
