Abstract

The objective of the study is to explore barriers obstructing the South Africa local government, public sector organization, from developing and implementing environmental management accounting (EMA) to improve municipal waste management from an institutional theory perspective. To attain the purpose of the study, 18 in depth interviews were conducted on 12 Chief Finance Officers and 6 municipal managers from 12 municipalities. Thematic analysis procedures reveals that absence of environmental accounting guidance, lack of employee training and skills, weak environmental legislation and regulations, weak stakeholders’ pressure to apply environmental accounting, and financial barriers are key hindrance of developing EMA in the South African local government.

Abstract

The study was conducted to assess the air quality of Can Tho city. Data including meteorological factors (wind direction, wind speed, temperature, humidity) and air pollutants (TSP, SO2, NO2 and noise) of air quality were collected from the Department of Natural Resources and Environment of Can Tho city at 15 monitoring locations (KK01-KK15) in 2020. The air quality parameters were compared with QCVN 26:2010/BTNMT for noise and QCVN 05:2013/BTNMT for ambient air quality. The results wind speeds ranged from 0.28±0.26 to 0.83±0.59 m/s, temperature from 30.13±2.12 to 31.70±2.48 oC, and humidity from 64.16±9.13 to 78.95±3.88%. TSP, SO2, NO2 and noise were 171.99±44.86-265.81±18.75 µg/m3, 15.01±2.14-45.23±5.39 µg/m3, 11.78±1.87-37.64±5.02 µg/m3, 68.73±2.48-79.54±1.95 dBA, respectively. In general, air quality parameters were still within the allowable limits, except for noise. All air quality variables in the dry season were higher than those in the wet season except for humidity and wind speed. The air quality in Can Tho city is affected by emissions from vehicles and factories in which intersection locations, major traffic routes and industrial production areas often have higher concentrations of pollutants and noise. Spatial and temporal Cluster analysis showed that air quality in Can Tho city was spatially and seasonally changed. Air monitoring should also focus on toxic air pollutants in future monitoring. The current results provide a scientific basis for future air quality management.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate groundwater quality in Bac Lieu province, Vietnam using multivariate statistical methods and groundwater quality indices (GWQI). Eleven groundwater quality parameters including pH, chloride (Cl?), total dissolved solids (TDS), nitrate (N-NO?3), ammonium (N-NH+4), sulfate (SO2?4), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), Arsenic (As), hardness and coliforms were collected at seven monitoring sites in May 2020. These parameters were compared with the national technical regulation on groundwater quality (QCVN 09-MT:2015/BTNMT). Cluster analysis (CA) and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to elaborate on the groundwater quality variation and pollution sources. The results indicated that groundwater in the study area was polluted by N-NH+4 while other parameters were within the national regulatory limits. The high concentration of N-NH+4 could be attributed to intensive agricultural practices, especially fertilizer usage. CA resultsdivided the monitoring sites into three clusters by the parameters of pH, N-NO?3, Cl?, TDS, SO2?4, Fe, Mn, and hardness. The results of PCA revealed that the groundwater quality variation could be caused by four potential sources. The main parameters that influenced groundwater quality were pH, Cl?, TDS, N-NO?3, N-NH+4, Fe, and Mn. The GWQI values were in the range of 2.0-12.6, which means that groundwater quality at all studied sites is of excellent quality. Preventive measures should be strictly implemented to avoid groundwater pollution since this water source is more pivotal under the effects of surface water pollution and climate change.

Abstract

Although industries had taken measures to control environmental pollution, quality, and occupational health and safety, they did not receive comparable benefit, particularly in terms of corporate sustainability. The objective of this study is to examine the impacts of environmental pollution control, quality control, and occupational health and safety control on corporate sustainability through a comprehensive review on past conceptual and empirical researches. As environmental pollution control is the outcome of environmental management system that reduces waste and consumption of water and energy and increases the amount of recycled waste, quality control as the result of quality management systems enhances manufacturing process, product and service quality, customer loyalty, sales and profits, and continuous improvements, while occupational health and safety control improves employees’ competence, health, and safety at work as well as customer’s wellbeing for better competitiveness. The control over the three aforementioned aspects enhances corporate sustainability. The result of this study is a conceptual model for environmental pollution, quality, and occupational health and safety controls that support sustainability in manufacturing industry.

Abstract

Rainwater harvesting technology is needed today. The development fast that occurs has the impact of increasing the use ground water. Rainwater harvesting technology is the main solution in this case. Apart from being a water source, it can also restore the groundwater level to its original condition. Rainwater harvesting technology currently still needs a lot of development in order to produce better rainwater quality. For this reason, in this study modifications will be made to the initial filter to separate the initial sediment from pure rainwater when it rains. The centrifugal system in this case will be used to take part in separating sediment from rainwater. Centrifugal filtration systems are made using several tools and easily available materials. Based on the results of this study, it is known that the level of TDS reduction from before the use of centrifugal filters to after use is 62.2%. This decrease can be seen from the TDS value before the use of an average of 12.2, while after the use centrifugal filter the average TDS is 4.6.
