Influence of tourism,governance, and foreign direct investment on energy consumption and CO2 emissions: a panel analysis of Muslim countries

The empirical linkages from tourism, governance, and FDI have been quantified on CO₂ emission and energy use over 2002–2014 for a panel of 13 Muslim countries. To this end, we have examined the data for cross-sectional dependence (CD) and panel heterogeneity and employed panel algorithms, which account for both CD and panel heterogeneity. The results from Pedroni, Westerlund, and Kao tests supported the existence of a cointegration association between the chosen variables. In the CO₂ model, we observed that tourism positively, and governance negatively, influences the CO₂ emission. However, in the case of the energy model, the results of tourism pose a negative relationship, and governance indicates a positive relationship with energy use. The results supported the pollution haven phenomenon, finance, and energy triggered pollution in the study area. Further, the research supported a two-way causality between tourism and CO₂, where there is a unilateral causality from governance to CO₂. Similarly, a unidirectional causality was obtained from energy towards tourism. Lastly, the key policy recommendations based on the outcomes of the study are encouraging clean energy investment, enhancing good governance, and sustainable tourism development for improving environmental quality.

基于灰色关联分析的天津市碳排放驱动因素研究

天津市拥有中国重要老工业基地和低碳城市试点的“双重身份”,当前面临城市化工业化阶段的能源刚性需求巨大和减排压力日渐增大的双重压力,因此制定适宜天津市现阶段发展特征的碳排放政策追在眉睫.采用政府间气候变化专门委员会(IPCC)推荐的碳排放核算方法对天津市2001-2010年的CO2排放进行了估算,结合低碳城市试点指标剖析了天津市面临的减排困境;为找出解决办法,采用灰色关联分析法对天津市碳排放的驱动因素进行了识别.结果表明,能源消耗总量、人口指标、经济增长速度和产业结构指标等是CO2排放的关键因素,并由此得出结论,天津市碳减排的工作重心应集中于优化产业结构和能源利用结构、提高能效、倡导低碳消费等方面.     

温度对离子液体支撑膜捕集CO2的影响

传统CO2的捕集方法存在设备投资大、环境污染严重、再生能耗高等缺点,利用新型绿色工质离子液体负载于聚偏氟乙烯上制备离子液体支撑膜可以较好地解决该问题。在压力为0.2 MPa、流量为50 mL·min-1、温度在298~318 K范围内变化时,测定了CO2在1-乙基-3甲基咪唑双三氟磺酰亚胺盐（[Emim][Tf2N]）和1-乙基-3-甲基咪唑醋酸盐（[Emim][AC]）2种离子液体支撑膜中的渗透系数、溶解度和扩散系数,采用Van’t Hoff方程对溶解度数据进行关联、Arrhenius方程对渗透和扩散系数的数据进行关联。实验结果表明,CO2在2种离子液体支撑膜中的渗透和扩散系数随着温度的升高而增大,溶解度随着温度的升高而降低。[Emim][Tf2N]离子液体支撑膜对CO2的捕集性能优于[Emim][AC]支撑膜,CO2在[Emim][Tf2N]支撑膜中的溶解度最大值为0.447,在[Emim][AC]离子液体支撑膜中的最大溶解度为0.253,由此可确定离子液体支撑膜分离CO2的最佳工作温度,为其在工业应用中奠定良好的基础。

Association of the mutagenicity of airborne particles with the direct emission from combustion processes investigated in Osaka, Japan

The association of the direct-acting mutagenicity of soluble organic fraction of airborne particles toward Salmonella typhimurium YG1024 strain with the direct emission was investigated at a roadside and at a residential area in Osaka, Japan. The direct-acting mutagenicity was evaluated as mutagenic activity per unit volume of ambient air (rev m⁻³) and/or that per airborne particulate weight collected on a filter (rev mg⁻¹). The annual or diurnal changes of the mutagenicity of airborne particles at the residential site showed similar patterns to those of some gaseous pollutants such as NO₂ and SO₂, which were emitted from combustion processes. This result indicates that the mutagenicity is mainly attributable to the primary emissions. From the analysis of the relationship between the wind sector and the mutagenic intensity, rev m⁻³ and rev mg⁻¹ values were strongly affected by the emissions from the fixed sources and from the mobile sources, respectively. The rev m⁻³ value and concentration of 1-nitropyrene (1-NP) in unit per m³ at the roadside were a factor of 2.6 and 2.8 higher than those at the residential site, respectively, but the rev mg⁻¹ value and concentration of 1-NP in unit per mg at the roadside were substantially comparable to those at the residential area. These observations suggest that the characteristics of the airborne particles can be attributed to the automotive emissions even at the suburban area.
