It is important to understand the vertical distribution characteristics of outdoor particulates concentration in typical seasons winter and summer when people?s living spaces are getting higher above ground. The different heights floors (1st, 7th, 11th, 17th, 27th) a high-rise building Xi?an at 8:00 a. m., 12:00 3:00 p. 6:00 10:00 respectively, were tested analyzed this paper. results showed that concentrations on non-working days much lower than working times floors, relatively low summer. reached highest m. summer, with average PM10, PM2.5, PM1.0 37.3 ?g/m3, 31.6 29.4 ?g/m3. While winter, 82.4 64.8 57.7 atmospheric environment mainly dominated by small particulates. particle sizes range from 1.0 ?m 2.5 ?m, high less ?m. With increase time, PM1.0/PM2.5 PM2.5/PM10 show trend first decreasing then increasing days, while increasing, next days. In addition, meteorological parameters will also have certain impact distribution. provides reference values for controlling buildings.

Abstract The building sector is significantly contributing to climate change, pollution, and energy crises, thus requiring a rapid shift more sustainable construction practices. Here, we review the emerging practices of integrating renewable energies in sector, with focus on types, policies, innovations, perspectives. sources include solar, wind, geothermal, biomass fuels. Case studies Seattle, USA, Manama, Bahrain, are presented. Perspectives comprise self-sufficiency, microgrids, carbon neutrality, intelligent buildings, cost reduction, storage, policy support, market recognition. Incorporating wind into buildings can fulfill about 15% building's requirements, while solar integration elevate contribution 83%. Financial incentives, such as 30% subsidy for adoption technologies, augment appeal these innovations.

Abstract Anaerobic digestion constitutes a sustainable method for waste management and renewable energy generation, addressing significant environmental societal challenges. The growing global crisis the increasing momentum toward solutions emphasize critical need to enhance anaerobic technology improved efficiency advantages. This process mitigates accumulation, enhances security, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, providing feasible solution within framework of circular bioeconomy. Here, we review principles biogas production, focusing on agricultural utilization framework. We specifically explore applications in rural industrial settings, assess impacts, discuss regulatory landscape with insights from China Europe. study reveals that strategic implementation can markedly improve yield sustainability, demonstrating how focused policies advanced technological practices optimize utilization. comprehension emphasizing Europe as key examples.

Climate change is worsening across the region, exacerbating energy crisis, while traditional centralized systems struggle to meet people’s needs. Globally, countries are actively responding this dual challenge of climate and demand. In September 2020, China introduced a carbon target “Carbon peak neutrality”. Since then, it has consistently encouraged supported innovative research on reduction conservation through its resource policies. Distributed (DESs) gaining favor in various due their promising applications environmental realms, particularly light current imperatives for conservation, emission reduction, relevant This paper provides retrospective analysis recent DESs, conducts systematic classification statistical overview DES implementations, offers insightful recommendations future prospects advancement DESs.
