Abstract

Countries all over the globe are facing climate change. Global warming is a real problem that occurs and affects food production.  Precipitation and temperature rise are causes of the changes observed in this study. This study examines the relationship between food security level due to climate change. To provide further clarity, a systematic literature review (SLR) towards the impacts of climate change was conducted to identify the extent of its impacts on food security and to identify the extent of its impacts on the level of food security and research gaps. This systematic review identifies and analyzes documents on the impact of climate change on the level of food security in terms of the impact of climate change, the methods used to analyze climate change, and the available climate change adaptation policies. Following SLR guidelines, Google Scholar is the main database. This research can broaden our knowledge about the impacts of climate change and the role we can play in maintaining food security.

Abstract

Flooding has been a recurrent problem in the Indonesian capital, especially in the northern part of Jakarta, along the Jakarta shore. The floods were caused by a number of sources. According to Renald et al. (2016), there are four critical factors in designing disaster-prone cities in Indonesia, namely spatial management, disaster adaptation, disaster mitigation, and technology innovation. Therefore, the development of infrastructure in Jakarta has started to use these four elements, by applying the concept of environmentally friendly drainage, specifically the concept of eco-drainage. This study aims to understand the general picture through the cause-and-effect relationship between all flood components. This study used a qualitative approach and was conducted using a dynamic system method to describe the Causal Loop Diagram (CLD) model, which provides information between interrelated variables and forms a complex system Rifaldi et al. (2021). The model generated from the dynamic system can be used for scenario analysis by showing how the interactions between the components that make up the structure of the system and the effects of feedback loops affect. The CLD model shown shows that the use of eco-drainage will directly affect the condition of 2 (two) other variables, both of which will lead to one main variable. The proposed settlement scenarios will result in policy and technical recommendations. This CLD model shows that the interaction between variables is very dynamic and affects each other massively and holistically. Combining dynamic system processes with SMWW can potentially improve the expected results in engineering and provide an alternative scenario.

Abstract

Waste management issues in rural locations differ from those in metropolitan ones. Unmanaged waste has the potential to harm the rural environment. Understanding the generation and characteristics of household and household-related waste is the starting point for planning waste management. Accurate measurement of waste generation and characteristics helps optimize waste reduction and recycling efforts. Therefore, this study aims to measure the waste generation and characteristics in rural areas using the Indonesia National Standard 19-3964-1994 method. The survey team visited 60 samples of residential and non-residential properties in the Tanjungsari Sub-district for eight consecutive days. Based on the results, the waste generation was 0.34 kg person-1 day-1. Organic waste (food waste, leaves, paper, and wood) accounts for the majority of garbage (81,34%), followed by inorganic materials (plastic, fabric, other materials, metal, and glass) at 15.66%, 1.86%, 0.91%, 0.12%, 0.11% respectively. The residential waste density is 196.1 kg m-3, while in non-residential areas is 63.63 kg m-3. Family size and income, living habits, and the type of economy or industry that develops have influenced the rural waste generation and composition. Rural waste management strategies need to consider organic waste as a raw material in composting or fermentation.

Abstract

Hadejia-Nguru wetlands is known as a joule of the Sahel as it is the major biodiversity reservoir of the Sahelian parts of Nigeria. However, series of impediment that follows the Sahelian drought of 1970s has been altering the ecosystem of the wetlands. The secondary succession of invasive weed that follow the habitat changes has altered the wetlands derived livelihood activities. This study examines the livelihoods constrain of the weeds as well as livelihoods derived from the weeds. Information on biodiversity timeline history, types of weeds that grow on the wetland site, the livelihoods activities derived from the weeds, and the livelihoods constraint of weeds were collected through interviews with key informants and focus group discussion. Three focus group discussions were conducted in six wetlands site communities, with participants including farmers, pastoralists, and other categories of wetland users. The qualitative information collected was analysed using grounded theory tool. The study identified 18 weed species that grow on the Hadejia-Nguru wetlands and discovered that the weeds are sources of raw materials for constructions, craft work, and fodder for animals among others. They also constitute the major constraints to livelihood activities such as fishing, transportation, irrigation, rainfed farming, and domestic water supply, among others. The study concluded that weeds are both a constraint and means of livelihood. Hence, the study’s hypothesis is that ‘’the impact of weeds on livelihoods diminish over time’.’ It is therefore recommended that all the beneficial weeds in the wetlands should be identified and utilized sustainably, while the growth of the bad ones should be controlled.

Abstract

Land use change detection is often conducted to critically discern trends, causes, and their impacts on the landscape to enhance decision-making for conservation of biodiversity and ecological functions. The objectives of the study were to evaluate Land Use and Land cover changes in Tubah Sub-Division, Cameroon, from 1986 to 2017, and to determine plant diversity and abundance in areas with different land uses. Field surveys were carried out to determine the diversity of this area, eight 50x50m sample plots were established in four different sites and trees and shrubs with diameter at breast height (DBH≥10mm) were sampled. Primary data was obtained through field observations and ground truthing in order to confirm observations on satellite images. Land use maps were produced using GIS ArcGis 10.2. Images were extracted for the years 1986, 1996, 2006, and 2017. A total of 173 species were recorded in all the sites belonging to 63 families and 146 genera. The fallow land and secondary forest were the most diverse of all the sites with the highest Shannon index of H′= 3.09 and H′= 2.97 respectively. The least diverse were the agricultural and grazing lands, with H′= 1.39. Analysis of the GIS data revealed a decline in vegetation cover of 90.24 hectares from 1986-1996, 23.76 ha from 1996-,2006 and 86.70 ha from 2006-2017. Settlement areas increased by 63.64 ha from 1986-1996, 53.37 ha from 1996-2006 and 15.36 ha from 2006-2017. Water bodies reduced from 1986-1996 by 7.34 ha, 14.28 ha from 1996-2006 and 3.56 ha from 2006-2017. Bare ground increased by 135.88 ha from 1986-2017. Field observations revealed that agricultural intensification, construction of buildings, unsustainable logging and grazing were the major causes affecting plant diversity in Tubah Sub-Division. The study’s outcomes are critical for future land-use planning exercises and the long-term conservation of the biodiversity and water sources for the communities. The population of Tubah should be educated on sustainable land use management and biodiversity conservation.

Abstract

Designing an industrial location must be based on consideration of factors that will influence it such as natural, environmental and ecological conditions. One of the spatial-based location determination methods is Spatial Multi-Criteria Evaluation (SMCE). This study aims to determine suitable industrial areas and compare industrial locations that have been determined based on the Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW) for 2010-2030 in Kendari City. Industrial areas must be flood-free, located in a relatively flat area, far from settlements, have good access and must not interfere with the river’s natural function. Therefore, the aspects of access, hydrology, physiography and convenience were all taken into account in this study. The area in Scenario A was retested with Scenario B and Scenario C to get a variety of industrial areas with different perspectives. Kendari City’s appropriate industrial area is 2.462.36 ha and is located in Puuwatu Sub-District, which is directly connected to Mandonga Sub-District (scenario 2.C). The RTRW map with the industrial model of the area shows the mismatch of the proposed industrial area placement. The results of this industrial area can be used as an alternative for decision-makers.

Abstract

The provision of clean water, microorganisms-free water is crucial in preventing the transmission of waterborne diseases. This study was conducted with the objective of evaluating the bacteriological quality of water sources accessible to students within Nasarawa State University Keffi. Sixteen samples, comprising ten from piped source, three from boreholes, and three from wells, were subjected to bacteriological quality assessment. The total bacterial count was analyzed using the pour plate technique, while the total coliform count and bacteriological index were assessed through the most probable number technique. Among the various water sources examine, pipe-borne water exhibited the lower bacterial contamination with a mean of 0.6×106 CFU/100 mL in contrast to borehole and well water sources, which recorded mean of 1.6×106 and 3.2×106 CFU/100 mL, respectively. Additionally, pipe-borne water demonstrated the lowest mean total coliform count, registering 22 MPN/100 mL. Notably, Notably, the water samples were found to harbor bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Enterobacter aerogens, and Citrobacter sp.  Alarming findings from this study highlight the unsuitability of most water samples for human consumption, as they fail to meet the quality standards established by the World Health Organization. Consequently, it is necessary to implement measures aimed at safeguarding water sources from contamination and curbing the proliferation of diseases. Furthermore, it is pertinent to prioritize adequate treatment of domestic water sources prior to consumption to ensure public health and well-being.

Abstract

Informal settlements suffer sanitation challenges of inadequate toilet facilities and a high accumulation rate of faecal sludge due to land crises and dense populations. However, settlement people who struggle with informal living, either way, manage to keep their toilets running. This research explores faecal sludge management practices by people in informal settlements. It took Notun-Bazar Char Khulna as a case, purposefully sampled toilets, and populations, and conducted interviews and group discussions among settlement people, sweepers, key persons, and detailed observations of settlement premises. It also mapped excreta flows and discharge locations in drawings and diagrams. It illustrates how faecal sludge from all types of containment ending in the water is unsafe. This study analytically finds practices related to periodical containment management, Collective emptying mechanism, and faecal sludge’s conditional conveyance available in the informal settlement. It suggests developing environmentally safe faecal sludge management in informal settlements with an appreciation of the identified practices.

Abstract

The consequences of enhanced PAH deposition and accumulation in food crop and other biota can be traced to environmental pollution through human activities which has improved due to industrial revolution. The impact of this phenomena has been observed in the food chain as this toxicant accumulates within its system and therefore, it can be exposed to human being with detrimental effect. The study compared exposure of edible vegetables to PAH from spent engine oil and three purchased PAH component (benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(k)fluoranthene and benzo(ghi)perylene). PAH was extracted from soil and plant using soxhlet extraction method. The health risk review was done using risk assessment model. The unpolluted vegetables showed a higher growth performance when compared to the exposed vegetables pertaining to their bio-tolerance. However, unpolluted vegetable was significantly different (P<0.05) from polluted vegetable. The result showed that Fluoranthene (Flu), benzo(a)Pyrene (B(a)P), Acenaphthene (Ace), Anthracene (Ant), Naphthalene (Nap) and Benzo(b)Fluoranthene obtained from spent engine oil polluted soil (SEOPS) were the most abundant in the soil. However, concentration of commercially purchased benzo(a)pyrene was observed to be higher in plants than (Benzo(k)fluoranthene and Benzo(ghi)perylene) utilized. Bioaccumulation factor total (BAFT) of commercially purchased B(a)P, B(k)F and B(ghi)P showed higher accumulation value (1.8, 1.5), compared to that of spent engine oil in edible vegetables. Analysis of the calculated assessing value (AV), Benzo(a)pyrene toxic equivalent quotient (BaPteq), food daily intake, and margin of exposure (MOE) showed potential risk concern when consumed, except for progressive lifetime cancer risk (PLCR). The PLCR poses relatively low health concern; nevertheless, prolonged exposure to these pollutants can affect humans as it possesses a high potential to bio-accumulate in edible vegetables.

Abstract

Sustainable ceramic production is not only dependent on the adoption of renewable fuel, but also on combustion proficiency, efficient fuel utilization, and thermal energy released. This study reports on the thermal evaluation of a cross-draft ceramic kiln, with a view to determine the efficiency of the combustion process. The methodology involved firing the kiln to determine the equivalent ratio, stoichiometric air-methane ratio, enthalpy of formation of reactants and products, and the thermal energy liberated from the firing process. The results indicated that: 1000°C is attainable in 7 hours and 30 min at a firing rate of 136.97 sec/°C, fuel consumption rate of 1L/61.6 sec and average temperature of 613.4°C. The results also showed that, enthalpies of formation of products and reactants of -74,897 and -557,376.843 were generated at air-methane equivalent ratio of 1 : 5 and stoichiometric ratio of 9.818. This translated to 57.18% of air available for the combustion process and a 42.82% deficiency. The study concluded that though the combustion process of the methane fired kiln was weak, resulting in thermal energy loss of 39.9%, there was an energy utilization of up to 60.1%.
