It also harms animal communication and habitats. Methods to reduce noise include better urban planning, equipment modifications, noise barriers, and controlling vehicle speed. Regulations establish limits and standards provide guidelines but enforcement can be improved.
Noise pollution can negatively impact human health and quality of life. Unwanted sound that is loud or persistent enough can damage hearing or cause annoyance. Common sources of noise pollution include transportation like vehicles, aircraft, and trains, as well as industrial operations, construction, and recreational activities. The ear converts sound vibrations into nerve signals that are perceived by the brain as sound. Noise is measured in units called decibels and standards aim to limit exposure and emissions from various sources.
Noise Control Stratagies in Reinforced Concrete BuildingsIJRES Journal
This study is aimed at bringing out the salient aspects of building noise control. An analysis has been carried out with respect to the noise transmission as well as the characteristics of noise inside buildings. The key issues on building noise control have been included and discussed. A comprehensive study on building noise and on acoustically divisible spaces has been made. It has been observed that a sound insulation of the order of 30 to 35 dB is possible in a given building. Further, the noise propagation parameters in an exhibition hall have been theoretically estimated. The data so obtained has been compared with actual SPL measurements and recorded. Variations in noise levels observed have been explained. Before the partition is made, the SPL drop is faster inside the building but after the partition the drop falls at the rate of 3dB for doubling the distance. The cost of the acoustically divisible partition wall is found to be very high, but the advantage of this partition seems to be creating acoustically divisible spaces where in one can conduct two programs simultaneously, without any disturbance to each other. Prior to the selection and design of control measures, noise sources must be identified and the noise produced must be carefully evaluated.
This document discusses noise control techniques for landscape design. It begins with basic definitions of sound, noise, frequency, and decibels. It then discusses approaches to sound control, including acoustical planning during the design stage to minimize noise and retrofitting existing developments. Key aspects of acoustical planning include setbacks, buffer zones, and noise barrier mounds. Retrofitting is more difficult and costly but can incorporate barriers, fences, and soundproofing. The document also covers noise measurement tools, calculations, outdoor noise control methods like barriers and screening, and factors that influence barrier effectiveness.

Monitor indicators of genetic diversity from space using Earth Observation dataSpatial Genetics
Genetic diversity within and among populations is essential for species persistence. While targets and indicators for genetic diversity are captured in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, assessing genetic diversity across many species at national and regional scales remains challenging. Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) need accessible tools for reliable and efficient monitoring at relevant scales. Here, we describe how Earth Observation satellites (EO) make essential contributions to enable, accelerate, and improve genetic diversity monitoring and preservation. Specifically, we introduce a workflow integrating EO into existing genetic diversity monitoring strategies and present a set of examples where EO data is or can be integrated to improve assessment, monitoring, and conservation. We describe how available EO data can be integrated in innovative ways to support calculation of the genetic diversity indicators of the GBF monitoring framework and to inform management and monitoring decisions, especially in areas with limited research infrastructure or access. We also describe novel, integrative approaches to improve the indicators that can be implemented with the coming generation of EO data, and new capabilities that will provide unprecedented detail to characterize the changes to Earth’s surface and their implications for biodiversity, on a global scale.

Trichogramma spp. is an efficient egg parasitoids that potentially assist to manage the insect-pests from the field condition by parasiting the host eggs. To mass culture this egg parasitoids effectively, we need to culture another stored grain pest- Rice Meal Moth (Corcyra Cephalonica). After rearing this pest, the eggs of Corcyra will carry the potential Trichogramma spp., which is an Hymenopteran Wasp. The detailed Methodologies of rearing both Corcyra Cephalonica and Trichogramma spp. have described on this ppt.

3. WHAT IS NOISE?
Noise: Noise is nothing but an unacceptable level of sound that
hampers mental and physical peace, and may induce severe damage
to the health.
Normal range of hearing: The normal range of hearing for a healthy
young person is from approximately 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.
Suitable range- 500 Hz to 4000 Hz – the speech frequencies.
This presentation is a summary of a study which was conducted at
Gorai union under Mirzapur upozila of Tangail district.

17. INTRODUCTION
26/01/2021 17
In courses of time, our export getting bigger and bigger –especially our RMG sector
and right now we are the 2nd largest Gmt exporter in the world after China. Though
there is a big gap in between China and Bangladesh regarding yearly
exporting turn over in garment sector but we could stand our country in a good
position crossing some other neighborhood countries and worldwide as well.
While the textile industrialization getting bigger, then it also talking about
organizational health and safety issue for the workers. In a textile industry as well
as garments –there are lot of operations which involved with health risk and need a
good safety environment for workers. I would like to talk about today the “Standard
Noise level &Pollution in the textile Industry and Environment” which is being a bit
over looked by buyers and owners but the issue is burning.
18. NOISE INDUCED HEARING LOSS”
(NIHL)- :
26/01/2021 18
NIHL has recently become one of the biggest occupational disease risks and
occupational NIHL contributing to 16% of global deafness and it is the real fact. So we
can realize noise in textile industry and garment cannot be overlooked as well as in
our country environment and it is deeply related with a big compliant issue from
buyer point of view. Of late, it is strictly controlled by the buyers so far as a part of
OHS. Actually what is the noise level—-In atmospheric sounding and noise pollution,
ambient noise level (sometimes called background noise level, reference sound level,
or room noise level) is the background sound pressure level at a given location,
normally specified as a reference level to study a new intrusive sound source.
19. WHAT SHOULD BE THE
ACCEPTABLE NOISE LEVEL
26/01/2021 19
The decibel (dB) level acceptable under ILO and Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) of USA for an eight-hour day cannot exceed 85-90 dB; for six
hours the limit is 92 dB; for four hours the maximum limit is 95 dB; for three hours the
limit is 97 dB; for two hours 100 dB; for one and a half hours 102 dB and for one hour
105 dB.
20. HOW DOES NOISE AFFECT :
26/01/2021 20
WHO has described noise pollution as an underestimated threat that can cause
hearing loss, cardiovascular problems, cognitive impairment, stress and
depression. Noise pollution can affect people in several ways, some of which are
listed below:
1. HEARING LOSS
2. POOR COGNITIVE OUTCOME
3. CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE
4. SLEEP DISTURBANCES
5. TROUBLE IN COMMUNICATING
6. VARIOUS OTHER PHYSICAL OR MENTAL LOSSES
7. ANNOYANCE
8. GETTING TIRED AND EXHAUSTEDOCCUPATIONAL HEALTH HAZARD
21. HOW DO YOU MEASURE NOISE
LEVEL
26/01/2021 21
The energy in a sound wave can be measured
using Decibels. The Decibel Meter shows
examples of things that make noise and
measurements in decibels. Amplitude measures
how forceful the wave is. It is measured in
decibels or dBA of sound pressure.
22. FIVE TIPS TO REDUCE NOISE IN
TEXTILE INDUSTRY
26/01/2021 22
1) Use hearing protection,
2) Do not operate noisy machinery
3) Measure and map noise
4) Move noisy tasks
5) Isolate noise
23. FINAL WORDS:
26/01/2021 23
Bangladesh has, over the last 40 years, seen a significant growth in the textile
manufacturing & Export. Almost 80% of foreign currency coming from
garments exporting and 4 million people are involved directly in the sector.
The increase in manufacturing has led to an increased exposure to high levels
of noise and has contributed to increase NIHL among textile workers. Again,
Garment workers in Bangladesh face noise levels of 96-100 Decibels which is
a significant contributor to NIHL among women textile workers . So it is the
right time to take pragmatic steps to reduce noise pollution in the industries
and country as well. Already some of the textile industries made their
position far better than even abroad and present government is taking some
stern action as well as arranging awareness seminars/meeting on this issue.
Students from universities and some of the organizations members
demonstrate against noise pollution, arranging rally and so on. But the
precondition to reduce noise pollution in a minimum level is public awareness
and commitment, simultaneously government has to be taken logical &
customized noise management policy studying & analyzing other countries
policies in the world.
29. CONCLUSION :
26/01/2021 29
Though the noise level inside and outside the visited industry is in the satisfactory level
but still there are some problems regarding noise coming from different machinery used
in the production system of the industries. Thus specific workers involved in operating
that specific machinery need special care as the noise can ultimately affect the workers’
health. Thus the following activities can be taken as general recommendation for the
control of noise inside the industry:
Use of ear muff as a mandatory by the workers engaged in operating machinery that
produces sound in the range of 80 dBA and above.
Replacing very old machineries that produce excess noise.
Isolation of the generator room from the main industrial workplace and use of ear
muff by the respective personnel engaged in operating the generator
Beside the general recommendations, based on the observed scenarios and findings
some more specific suggestions can be implemented by various industries for the
improvement of noise and its related status in the industries of KHIA.
31. INTRODUCTION
26/01/2021 31
Noise is an unwanted sound that interferes with the function in a given space. It is
subjective because what is disturbing and unacceptable to one may be acceptable to
another. It is difficult to give a very clear definition of an irritating noise. In recent years,
even a developing country like Bangladesh has taken positive steps against excessive
noise. Like air and water pollution, noise pollution has been accepted as a major threat to
human beings.
The problem of noise pollution can be combated when' there are means of measuring
noise levels and a system of classification. The decibel is a dimensionless number, which
relates sound intensity or sound pressure levels to some reference point. The human ear
is able to hear I - 130 decibels.It’s damage a lot human health also its effect on
environment.
32. EFFECT OF NOISE ON HUMAN
BEINGS
26/01/2021 32
Apart from damage to hearing, there is evidence
that noise also affects the people in the following
other ways:
• Reduced performance, e.g. reduced ability to concentrate.
• Disturbance of sleep.
• Annoyance (oral communication is difficult or impossible), which
manifests itself primarily in emotional responses.
• Excitement (activation) of the central and vegetative nervous
system, e.g. increased blood pressure, higher heart frequency, and
effect on metabolism.
33. REDUCTION OF NOISE
26/01/2021 33
Reduction of noise is important and above all a
demanding task. Machinery manufacturers have
attempted to keep the noise emission as low as possible,
but what would have been achieved in lowering down the
noise level has been cancelled out by the continuous
increase in speed. Further progress in this field is
foreseeable with the aid of computer-aided online
control.
34. CONCLUSION
26/01/2021 34
In Bangladesh industry, the noise level is high
and it is high time that the mills must
recognize this as an environmental problem
with an impact on occupational environment
and take steps to reduce it.It is important to
keep a close control over pollutants so that
we can maintain the environment in an
acceptable condition for future generations.
