Master Presentation (Session 2b) from the 2015 Horizon 2020 SC5 Information Day, 21/10/2015, Herbert Park Hotel, Dublinsource of energy effect on their enviroment
This document is a report submitted by a group of 7 students for their Sustainable Energy Technology course. It discusses various energy resources and their effects on the environment. It begins with an introduction that outlines the problem of energy resources affecting the environment. The literature review then examines renewable energy sources like hydroelectric, wind, and solar as well as nonrenewable sources like fossil fuels and their environmental impacts. The methodology section proposes ways to reduce these impacts, such as using alternative energy, managing radioactive waste, and introducing new technologies. The document concludes with recommendations for minimizing energy's effect on the climate.
Nuclear Energy
The document discusses nuclear power and its environmental impacts. It notes that nuclear power currently provides 14% of the world's energy and reduces reliance on fossil fuels, in turn lowering air pollution and global warming. However, it also produces highly radioactive waste that requires centuries to decompose and can be lethal. Examples of nuclear accidents like Chernobyl in 1986 are mentioned. The document also briefly discusses connections to local nuclear plants in Southern California.
1.5. Humans and pollution
1. The document discusses various types of pollution caused by human activities and their impacts. It defines pollution and describes different forms such as air pollution, light pollution, and point source versus non-point source pollution.
2. DDT is used as a case study to illustrate the conflicts between the utility of a substance and its environmental impacts. While DDT was widely used for malaria control, it bioaccumulated in ecosystems and contributed to thinning eggshells and declines in bird populations like bald eagles.
3. The costs of pollution are extensive and include impacts on human health, natural systems, and economic losses. Air pollution alone results in over $200 billion in lost income annually due to premature deaths.
Nuclear power
1) The document discusses nuclear power, how it works by splitting uranium atoms to heat water and power turbines, and generates 11% of the world's energy needs.
2) While nuclear power produces cheap, renewable energy without pollution, it is not truly renewable as uranium is finite, and nuclear waste remains dangerous for thousands of years with no long-term storage solution.
3) Major disadvantages include the risks of accidents and contamination from uranium mining and plant operations, as evidenced by disasters like Chernobyl and Fukushima, with significant health and economic costs.

Title: Can a Greener Internet Help Us Moderate Climate Change?
La Jolla, CA
Enviromental issues & Climate change
Global warming is caused by human activities that release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere from sources like burning fossil fuels. Some key greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, which are emitted through processes like breathing, farming, and industry. While all humans contribute somewhat, developed nations like America produce far more greenhouse gases and are largely at fault for global warming. Reducing electricity use, recycling, and choosing active transportation can help avoid worsening the effects of climate change.
Prof Derek Clements-Croome - Sustainable architecture
This document discusses lessons that can be learned from nature and applied to sustainable architecture. It provides examples of characteristics found in nature, such as running on sunlight and recycling, that architecture could mimic. Specific natural construction methods like sculpting, piling up, and weaving are examined. Biomimetics is introduced as abstracting functional attributes from organisms for technological solutions. The document also explores patterns, shapes, structures and sensing methods found in nature that could inspire architectural design approaches.
Ti o2- stratospheric aerosol injection- geoengineering 2013
This document discusses the use of stratospheric aerosol injection using titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles to combat global warming through geoengineering. It notes that Nobel laureate Paul Crutzen proposed using stratospheric aerosols to mimic the global cooling effects of large volcanic eruptions. The document argues that TiO2 is a safer alternative to sulfur dioxide and could be used to scatter sunlight back into space. It estimates that 3 million tons of TiO2 particles injected into the stratosphere each year could have the desired cooling effect. However, the document also suggests the primary motivation for ongoing stratospheric aerosol injection programs may be to protect sensitive semiconductor technologies from electromagnetic pulses, rather than mitigate climate change.
Nurul Afina Task 6
This document is a report submitted by a student for an assignment on sustainable urban planning. It discusses various mitigation and adaptation measures that could be taken to address rising sea levels in a coastal city. The report outlines strategies like promoting renewable energy (solar, wind, biomass, hydro), energy conservation, and adapting infrastructure to be more resilient to climate change impacts like sea level rise, stronger storms, and species migration. Implementing these solutions could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and protect the city from future climate risks.
TICAL 2011 green it
This document discusses how climate change poses an existential threat and how information and communication technologies (ICT) and networks can help societies adapt and survive. Rapid warming is already causing severe impacts like droughts and flooding that will disrupt energy systems and infrastructure. To adapt, networks must be designed to operate on renewable energy sources like wind and solar, even relocating facilities to remote locations with clean power. This represents an opportunity for innovation in areas like follow-the-sun computing across data centers. National research and education networks (NRENs) can act as cloud brokers to facilitate such distributed computing on green infrastructure.

Issue Paper Assignment 6_R.Rohrbacher_SMGT235
This document discusses the need for individual reduction in energy consumption to ensure sustainable energy for the future. It argues that as population and energy usage increase, fossil fuel reserves will deplete and greenhouse gas emissions will rise if changes are not made. The document suggests that individuals can play a role by taking responsibility for their own energy usage through actions like purchasing efficient products, retrofitting homes, and influencing markets through consumer choices. Reducing individual consumption could help slow resource extraction and the impending energy crisis.
Technology is destroying our planet
Technology and population growth threaten the planet's resources and environment. The world population is over 7 billion and growing rapidly, requiring more resources that are being depleted. By 2050, we will need another planet to support the population. Genetic engineering has benefits but risks releasing super viruses. Climate change from fossil fuel use is increasing temperatures and melting ice caps. Technological waste in landfills releases toxins into the environment. While technology is not solely to blame, humans must address these issues to ensure a sustainable future.
What can one person do about climate change?
The document discusses actions individuals can take to address climate change. It suggests three main actions: 1) cut one's own carbon footprint in half by reducing meat consumption, driving, and flying, 2) work with others in communities and organizations to cut carbon footprints in half, and 3) work for systemic change through actions like demanding policies from leaders, preventing new fossil fuel infrastructure, and participating in legal cases. The document emphasizes that significant emissions reductions are needed immediately to stabilize the climate.

English project victoria daglas
Fossil fuels, toxins, and technology impact modern life. Fossil fuels are non-renewable remains of ancient organisms that are formed over millions of years underground. While crucial to development, their use contributes to issues like pollution and climate change. Toxins in everyday products also endanger health and environment. Technology plays an integral but complex role, enhancing lives but potentially isolating users and straining resources. Managing these elements sustainably requires individual responsibility as well as coordinated global action.

Signpost Seminar: Water quality - national problems, local solutionsEnvironmental Protection Agency, Ireland
This document discusses water quality issues in Ireland and solutions to address them. National water quality monitoring data shows 47% of rivers and 62% of estuaries are in unsatisfactory condition. The two most widespread problems are excess nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus), with phosphorus and sediment issues impacting 60% of waters needing measures. Maps have been created to identify critical source areas for phosphorus and nitrogen losses from agriculture to target remediation efforts. Measures proposed include riparian buffers, wetlands, and nutrient management plans to reduce nitrogen and phosphorus at their sources and intercept transport pathways.Dr Pete Lunn, EPA, HSE and ESRI, Environment, Health and Wellbeing Conference...

The document discusses the challenges of achieving a non-toxic environment and proposes key actions to develop a more sustainable chemicals policy. It notes that while regulations aim to keep chemical concentrations below toxic levels, biodiversity continues to decline and human exposures are rising. It argues for intensifying efforts like minimizing chemical releases, banning persistent chemicals, increasing green chemistry and monitoring. The goal is to ultimately reduce both ecological damage and human health impacts from chemicals in the environment.Ireland's Environment an integrated assessment 2020 - key messages
Ireland's Environment an integrated assessment 2020 - key messagesEnvironmental Protection Agency, Ireland
On 25 November 2020 the EPA published Ireland’s Environment - An Integrated Assessment 2020 which provides an assessment of the overall quality of Ireland's environment, the pressures being placed on it and the societal responses to current and emerging environmental issues. EPA River Monitoring Fact Sheet
This plain English fact sheet outlines the work done by the EPA in monitoring Ireland’s rivers.
Ireland has more than 73,000 km of river channels. If placed end-to-end, they could encircle the Earth almost twice. Three-quarters of these channels are very small streams that typically flow into larger rivers.
Biological monitoring has been carried out in Irish rivers since 1971. The current national river monitoring programme covers more than 13,000 km of river channel.
The national monitoring programme is run by the EPA and focuses on the main river channels rather than the smaller streams. The programme includes more than 2,800 sites sampled for biology, with almost half of these being sampled for physical and chemical parameters.
EPA Marine Phytoplankton Fact Sheet
This plain English fact sheet outlines the work done by the EPA in monitoring phytoplankton in Ireland's marine environment.
The EPA and the Marine Institute sample phytoplankton in estuaries and coastal waters around Ireland. They carry out sampling three times during the summer and once during winter. At each location, they take water samples just below the surface and above the seabed. They use the samples to assess how much phytoplankton is in the water and what species are present.
Phytoplankton are tiny, free-floating plants found suspended in the world’s oceans. Their name comes from Greek and means ‘plant drifter’. They are carried along by ocean currents and are usually found floating near the surface of the water. Like all plants they need sunlight to grow.
The main sources of nutrients around Ireland’s coast are discharges from wastewater treatment plants and run off from agricultural land. Phytoplankton in the estuaries and coastal waters around Ireland are monitored by the EnvironmentalProtection Agency (EPA) and the Marine Institute. They monitor phytoplankton to assess the quality (status) of our marine environment. They must do this as part of the requirements of the European Water Framework Directive.
EPA Marine Monitoring Fact Sheet
This plain English fact sheet outlines the work done by the EPA in monitoring Ireland’s marine environment.
Ecologically healthy marine waters are a valuable natural resource. They support a rich and diverse range of ecosystems, habitats and species, and they are also a source of food – from wild fisheries and aquaculture. They are also important for recreational activities and tourism.
Transitional and coastal waters are assessed under the European Water Framework Directive (WFD) and the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). Having coordinated frameworks for water quality for all the water bodies in Ireland, and across Europe, allows us to compare our results with other countries. It allows us to see what works to help us make sure all our water bodies achieve at least ‘good’ status, and no deterioration occurs.
EPA Lake Monitoring Fact Sheet
This plain English fact sheet outlines the work done by the EPA in monitoring Ireland’s lakes.
A total of 225 lakes are currently included as part of the national surface waters monitoring programme run by the EPA, this covers around 80% of the surface area of all lakes in Ireland.
This includes:
• all lakes greater than 50 hectares
• lakes that are used for supplying drinking water
• lakes that are of regional, local or scientific interest
EPA Lake Monitoring Aquatic Plants Fact Sheet
This Plain English fact sheet outlines the work done by the EPA in monitoring aquatic plants in Irish lakes.
Aquatic plants are good at showing if the quality of the water is good or bad and play an important role in lake ecology by providing food and a habitat for many smaller plants, animals and birds.
They also:
• provide shelter for young fish
• help to improve the clarity of the water
• help stabilise lake shore banks
• reduce the amount of sediment being suspended in the water
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) monitors these aquatic plants at more than 10,000 sites in over 200 lakes once every three years.

10. Restoring the River Camac - Mary-Liz Walshe, DCC
This document discusses challenges and opportunities for restoring the Camac River in Dublin City while managing flood risk, supporting urban renewal, and adapting to climate change. The river suffers from channelization, loss of floodplains and wetlands, and lengthy culverts. Restoration requires tackling existing issues and avoiding new pressures. Opportunities include maximizing green space, rezoning industrial lands, and creating a greenway. Successful restoration requires considering the whole catchment and securing sufficient land, and balancing priorities like flood protection, development, and environmental goals. Planning tools like new zoning objectives can help protect land for restoration and climate adaptation.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.
