The aim of this research is to examine the relationship between average annual air pollution concentrations in selected cities and incidence specific diseases among children adolescents aged 0 18 Polish - Gdańsk, Katowice, Poznań, Lublin with varying levels [suspended particulate matter PM2.5 PM10, benzo(a)pyrene, nitrogen dioxide]. (asthma, hypertension, food skin allergies) from 2018 2023 quality atmospheric was examined. In due presence a developed industry, permissible analyzed pollutants were exceeded initial period, unlike Gdańsk Lublin. However, greatest challenge Poland concerning concentration benzo(a)pyrene. Nonetheless, there has been significant decrease recent years. facing problems are undertaking various measures improve quality. Studies have shown connections frequency such as bronchial asthma, allergies. impact varies city city.

Currently, the environment and its natural resources face many issues related to depletion of resources, in addition increase environmental pollution resulting from uncontrolled waste disposal. Therefore, it is crucial identify practical effective ways utilize these wastes, such as transforming them into environmentally friendly concrete. Artificial lightweight aggregates (ALWAs) are gaining interest because their shift focus aggregates. Researchers have developed numerous ALWAs eliminate need for This article explores diverse applications across different industries. currently research phase due various limitations compared availability that form more durable solutions. However, researchers discovered certain artificial prioritize weight over strength, allowing use like pavements. We thoroughly studied discussed this found fly ash construction most sources primary material ALWAs. production also presents challenges terms processing optimization. article’s case study reveals ALWAs, consisting 80% ash, 5% blast-furnace slag, only 15% cement, can yield a sustainable solution. In single- double-step palletization, aggregate proved be less harmful. Additionally, has reduced carbon footprint recycling materials, including derived marble sludge, ground granulated slag.

This research study presents a comparison of an in-person and online conference in terms environmental impact energy efficiency. The main goal our was to prepare complete life cycle assessment two-day (15-h), 200-participant based on different methods. Life assessments focus the numerical determination decarbonization consumption (lunch, dinner, food beverage during breaks), organization (discussions, correspondence, abstract booklet, registration package), travel, infrastructure. meals were examined by connecting stages preparation, cooking, end-of-life as cradle-to-grave analysis. We paid particular attention calculation consumption. After carbon footprint comparisons, areas with highest impacts pie diagrams identified. Lastly, SWOT chart SAP-LAP analysis diagram summarize achievable objectives challenges. In conclusion, there is no outstanding difference between methods for investigation. Travel contributes 57% overall at conferences, while holds second largest share, 8.41 kg CO2 equivalent/person/hour. Excluding calculated 0.362 equivalent/person/hour (only considering effect organization, administration package). Our initial hypothesis that reduces decarbonization, which results confirm.

There are still no appropriate technologies for the disposal of waste below 10 mm in order to prevent it from being deposited a landfill, while constitutes significant mass stream, with little studied composition, often varying quantity and seasonally. is also lack concise clear literature outlining issues surrounding this waste. These wastes both municipal industrial origin, various sources composition. The aim paper present results analysis quantity, fraction mm, view defining possibilities its recovery, recycling, disposal. generation included recovered at screens sorting plant mixed sorted waste, recovery reclamation raw fractions, brownfield, tailings, ash coal combustion construction. Defining their determining quality will allow targeting development recycling methods these wastes. An has shown that most valid option dealing incorporate into new products, example, building materials.

Current wood waste recycling processes need to be improved prioritize material recovery over energy by cascading the use of and limiting as much possible non-recyclable batches that may contain even partially highly contaminated grade C and/or Medium Density Fiberboard. In presented research, a life cycle assessment has been carried out for new product recovered from bulky waste. The Environmental Footprint 3.1 (adapted) method used assess potential environmental impact. results support quality products undertaken perspective circular economy management in sector. study aimed at identification hotspots secondary wooden blocks (from cradle market analysis). Bulky was subjected (a laboratory scale), adding starch water obtained. demonstrated production greatest impact on following categories: Resource use, fossils (24%), Climate change (23.9%), Eutrophication, freshwater (13.3%), minerals metals (11.8%). This is due high electricity consumption equipment machinery processing fabrication blocks.
