Conventional and zero liquid discharge treatment plants for textile wastewater through the lens of carbon footprint analysis

Journal of Water and Climate Change, 2021
Effluent treatment plants act as the last line of defense against the discharge of pollutants from industrial effluents. The higher resource consumption, variety of dyes, and auxiliary chemicals used for textile manufacturing classify it as a highly ...

The $^{13}$Carbon footprint of B[e] supergiants [PDF]

, 2010
We report on the first detection of $^{13}$C enhancement in two B[e] supergiants in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Stellar evolution models predict the surface abundance in $^{13}$C to strongly increase during main-sequence and post-main sequence evolution ...

Carbon Footprint of Tonsillectomy

The Surgeon
Introduction Healthcare is responsible for 5.4% of greenhouse gas emissions in the UK. Emissions in surgery is a relatively unexplored area; in particular, this hasn’t yet been looked at as a whole in ENT in the UK. Aims Quantify the amount of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission from a tonsillectomy and assess the proportion of each source’s contribution ...

Interaction between Molten Al‐Killed Mn–B Steel and Carbon‐Bonded MgO Refractories Based on Recyclates

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
High‐temperature interactions between low‐sulfur Al‐killed Mn–B steel and MgO–C refractories (0 and 50 wt% recyclates) are studied via finger immersion tests (1600 °C). Surface‐active elements influence infiltration. MgO/CaS layer forms, along with spinel and calcium silicate.
