In an effort to construct a desalination pilot plant, a study of several kinds of literature is needed to ensure Indonesia develops advanced and environmentally friendly desalination technology. This research aims to explore several research papers referenced in developing the desalination pilot plant to gain information on environmentally friendly and sustainable desalination technologies in selected countries such as Spain (Burriana), Mexico, Chile, the Philippines, and Iran (Kish Island), including in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region on the development of desalination technology for environmentally friendly and sustainable-based communities. This research method used a systematic literature review (SLR) approach that emphasizes secondary information from several studies from selected countries to develop desalination technology. Each technology developed is examined for suitability with environmental conditions and desalination technology to be further applied in Indonesia. The main reason for building desalination plants in selected countries is to support sustainable development based on green energy and technology. They are combining desalination technology with photovoltaic (PV) electrical energy, which is a critical factor in promoting green technology through electrodialysis (ED) or reverse osmosis (RO) techniques. The developed desalination pilot plant can achieve 7-14 L/(m2.h) productivity at approximately 0.36-0.78 USD/m3. If implemented in Indonesia, it is necessary to prepare financial support to construct, operate, and maintain. Desalination technology in Indonesia should prioritize environmentally friendly technology. Indonesia's topographic region is a golden advantage to supporting sustainable green energy by utilizing PV-RO or PV-ED-RO to create fresh water from seawater.

Waste is an integral part of our lives. It is a fundamental by-product of human activity. Waste is divided into several groups, including medical, hazardous, municipal, biodegradable, industrial, and inert waste. Both the waste producer and its owners have many obligations imposed upon them by the appropriate standards and laws in force in each country. Waste classification and segregation have many benefits, including less environmental pollution; improved living conditions for plants, animals, and humans, and the ability to obtain better raw materials for recycling through segregation. In this study, waste classification and separation systems are assessed. Waste classification method that considers the source, basic composition, and physical, chemical, and biological properties of the waste. Manual, mechanical, and optical systems were used to separate the waste. Nowadays, smart waste classification and segregation systems are being developed for automation. They separate mixed waste effectively. It is a very modern and efficient method that requires less work to function properly than basic waste classification and segregation methods. It is also a faster, more professional method that avoids incorrect sorting of waste. It can be called a future-oriented way of waste disposal and should gradually be introduced into our civilization. Examples of this technology include smart bins, automatic bottle vending machines, and automatic segregation and sorting. Solving the waste classification and separation problem is one of the issues that need special attention in the coming years. The constant development of technology related to this topic is a staple of the circular economy.

The bioreactor landfill is a solid waste disposal method that provides rapid solid waste degradation and acquisition of methane. Bioreactors in which leachate circulation is carried out are generally operated anaerobically. The biodegradation of wastes with high lignin and cellulose content is very difficult. Especially under anaerobic conditions (moreover, if there is a lack of moisture), such wastes almost never decompose. In this study, the degradation of the waste sunflower stalks that are difficult to biodegrade and have a high lignin-cellulose content and the production of methane gas in semi-aerobic bioreactors have been investigated. Sunflower stalk, were loaded into the bioreactors in different proportions and mixed with the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFSWM). The bioreactors were operated under different operating conditions. The contents of cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and initial and final organic matter in the wastes loaded into the bioreactors were examined. Parameters such as pH, COD, BOD5, TKN, NH4-N in leachate were analyzed, and the amounts of total and methane gas were measured. Initially, all bioreactors were operated anaerobically. In the decomposition of the sunflower stalk, while 43% of the organic matter removal was achieved in the anaerobic bioreactor, 60% of the organic matter removal was realised in the semi-aerobic/anaerobic bioreactor. Thereupon, other agricultural wastes were subjected to decomposition under semi-aerobic/anaerobic operating conditions. As a result of the study, it can be said that semi-aerobic pretreatment accelerates the breakdown of agricultural wastes with high lignin and cellulose content, decreases the COD values of leachate, and increases the amount of methane.

Biomethanation and dewaterability characteristics of primary (PS), secondary sludge (SS) and mixed sludge (MS) fractions were assessed after anaerobic stabilization under parallel batch and continuous mixing conditions at 35℃ in order to investigate the performance of the separate digestion system. Similar methane conversion/yield values were obtained in PS, SS and MS digestion with continuous mixing’s positive effect only in PS digestionContinuous mixing resulted in 50% increase in the methane yield (600(+/-100) mL/g VSadd.d. SS sludge digestion produced a comparable methane yield at 650(+/-100) mL/g VSadd.d showing no effect due to mixing pattern. Settling and dewaterability characteristics of the stabilized PS were superior to stabilized SS samples. A reverse relationship was obtained between settling characteristics and where intermittent mixing enhanced settling ability while continuous mixing resulted in higher dewaterability of the stabilized sludges. PE addition showed a negative effect on the settleability of the sludges. Low degree mixing resulted in lower Imhoff settling volume with 50% sludge volume reduction and an SVI of 64 mL/g VS compared to 25% volume reduction and 82 mL/g SVI in the CM mode for the stabilized PS. A similar trend for the stabilized SS but worsened values with 25% volume reduction and an SVI 182 mL/g compared to 15% volume reduction and 200 mL/g VS indicated much lower settleability character in the CM mode and compared to stabilized PS.

Today, in order to reduce fossil fuel consumption and to prevent gas emissions that are increasing day by day, vehicles working with electrical energy have started to be produced and developed. The environmental impact of the batteries of an increasing number of electric vehicles is an undeniable fact and is predicted to pose a huge problem. In this study, alternative recycling processes have been determined by examining the literature and the applications for waste lithium-ion batteries, and these processes have been compared with the different decision making techniques (Analytic Network Process (ANP) and TOPSIS) with technical, economic and environmental dimensions. In addition, sensitivity analysis has been applied for robustness of the results. For the wastes, the most appropriate recycling method in the context of circular economy has been determined as “Direct Recycling”in all of the studies.

The compost produced from organic wastes (MSW, city market’s wastes and wood dust) was selected to be processed via supercritical water gasification (SCWG) in order to produce gas product consisting of hydrogen and methane mainly. The effects of parameters such as temperature, reaction time and KOH as an additive were determined and around 55 vol.% of H2 and CH4 in the gas product was found after 30 min reaction time together with KOH, at 500 oC. The red mud catalysts did not improve the gasification yields even though they increased the calorific value of the product gas.

Several authors have carried out physico-chemical analyses of the raw water of Beni Haroun dam, since its exploitation, and others continue to do so. In this work, we have presented a synthesis of 16 years (2003-2018). The temporal variation of their quality depends on several parameters, such as climate, socio-economic development and population growth around its tributaries. The elements studied are: pH, EC, TDS, and in (mg/l) Ca++ , Mg++ ,Na+ , K+ , Cl- , SO42- , HCO3- , NO3- , NO2- ,NH4+ and PO43- , as well as organic parameters such as: COD, BOD5 , dissolved O2 and some heavy metals (μg/l) : Pb, Cd, Zn, Fe, Cr, Cu and Mn. The results of this publications collection allows us to note that the Beni Haroun dam raw water presents a variable quality in time, according to the seasons, and mainly the hydric contribution resulting from the precipitation, which induces a dilution of the various chemical elements. The air temperature modifies that of water, which affects the modification of the biological parameters. The conclusion common to all authors is the obligation to undergo a preliminary treatment, to this raw water, before its use for consumption and irrigation.

The use of plastic bags (PB) has increased continuously over time because of their multipurpose property. Due to its environmental effects, Turkey has approved a new law to limit the use of plastic bags. According to the approved Turkish plastic bags law (PBL), plastic bags of 15 microns or more are prohibited from being given to the customer free of charge. The effects of the new law were investigated by applying a face-to-face survey consisting of 13 questions to 1537 people in four districts close to Mersin city center. In addition to that, field surveys were managed to the common markets in the target area. From the target sample, 159 males and 128 females had not bought the PB after the law. Whereas 184 males and 178 females had bought PB for 10 times or more. The monthly income has a weak correlation with the plastic bags purchasing times.

The goal of this study is to reveal the time dynamics of studies systematically and comprehensively on drinking water treatment and disinfection, as well as the situation in the literature, by using the bibliometric analysis method to examine scientific publications in the field of "Disinfection By-Products" between 2001 and 2022. The data gathered from the investigated articles is shown using the visual mapping approach. In this regard, the research provides for an evaluation of the disinfection by-products literature. The study's database contained 115 scientific papers retrieved from Web of Science. Istanbul Technical University is the most productive university with 23 published articles on Disinfection By-products, followed by Suleyman Demirel University with 18 published articles. Trihalomethanes, haloacetic acids are the most studied types of carbonaceous disinfection by-products in published articles, and N-Nitrosodimethylamine is one of the most widely published nitrogenous disinfection by-products. The precursors of disinfection by-products or the removal of disinfection by-products are the two main focuses of the purpose of all studies. Coagulation, advanced oxidation processes and membrane processes constitute the methods used in the control of disinfection by-products. Brominated, and nitrogenous DBPs have attracted much attention due to their high toxicity. Future studies on disinfection by-products should focus on water quality standards, precursor controls, toxicity, and health effects. The necessity of bibliometric analysis of disinfection by-products is a necessity to fill the existing knowledge gaps in global and regional studies.

The study's database contained 115 scientific papers retrieved from Web of Science. Istanbul Technical University is the most productive university with 23 published articles on Disinfection By-products, followed by Suleyman Demirel University with 18 published articles. Trihalomethanes, haloacetic acids are the most studied types of carbonaceous disinfection by-products in published articles, and N-Nitrosodimethylamine is one of the most widely published nitrogenous disinfection by-products. The precursors of disinfection by-products or the removal of disinfection by-products are the two main focuses of the purpose of all studies. Coagulation, advanced oxidation processes and membrane processes constitute the methods used in the control of disinfection by-products. Brominated, and nitrogenous DBPs have attracted much attention due to their high toxicity. Future studies on disinfection by-products should focus on water quality standards, precursor controls, toxicity, and health effects. The necessity of bibliometric analysis of disinfection by-products is a necessity to fill the existing knowledge gaps in global and regional studies.","PeriodicalId":126818,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Research and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114634340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
