Performance improvement potential of sensor embedded products in environmental supply chains

Environmental supply chain is a desirable alternative to traditional supply chain due to new and stricter environmental regulations by local governments and increasing consumer awareness towards environmental issues. The two most common types of environmental supply chains are reverse supply chains and closed-loop supply chains. In reverse or closed-loop supply chains, collected used products are subjected to one of four recovery options, viz., reuse, recycling, remanufacturing or disposal. Regardless of the chosen recovery option, all products are disassembled up to some level. However, there is a high level of uncertainty associated with the disassembly yield due to non-functional and/or missing components. Sensor embedded products (SEPs) is a viable approach to cope with this uncertainty since they involve sensors which can detect non-functional and/or missing components prior to disassembly. This study presents a quantitative assessment of the impact of SEPs on the various performance measures of a kanban-controlled disassembly line. First, separate design of experiments studies based on Orthogonal Arrays are carried out for conventional products and SEPs. Then, the results of paired t-tests comparing the two cases based on different performance measures are presented.     

Retrofitting residential building envelopes for energy efficiency: motivations of individual homeowners in Israel

The willingness of private individuals in Israel to invest in energy-saving retrofit of the envelope of residential buildings was studied by means of a survey. Responses show that awareness of the need to conserve energy is high, but that willingness to participate in a retrofit project is modest and is limited to relatively small outlays. The decision on whether to retrofit at all, and then how much to invest in the project, is characterized as a two-stage process in which different factors may affect the outcome of each of the two stages. The major barrier to building retrofit is the perception (justified, in most cases) that the direct economic benefit to the homeowner from the resulting energy saving is small, and that given Israel's relatively mild climate, the payback period is very long. The stamp of approval provided by a government subsidy of 25% would have a large non-proportional effect on willingness to undertake building retrofit. Funding for the subsidy could be obtained from a Pigovian levy on electricity, applied for a limited period, and its environmental benefits outweigh the cost of the subsidy itself.

为落实铜陵市环境总体规划中大气环境规划,首先,利用A值法计算铜陵市大气环境容量,得出各区域大气环境承载率;之后,采用CALPUFF模型对铜陵市气象、土地利用以及地形要素进行综合处理;最后,根据模型输出对受体点和市域面积结果并结合ARCGIS得出不同影响性划分结果,以划定铜陵市总体规划中大气红线,并对后续规划提出针对性建议。从铜陵市污染源影响区、污染物影响区以及受体影响区地理坐标及面积占比评价结果来看,以污染物年均浓度为基准,红线部分面积为234.07km~2,占比为19.49%。     

内蒙古夏季大气降水同位素特征及影响因素

为探明内蒙古地区夏季大气降水中δD和δ¹⁸O组成特征及其对气象因子变化的响应关系,于2017~2019年夏季采集了内蒙古阿拉善左旗、呼和浩特市市区、正蓝旗、克什克腾旗（达里湖）、通辽科尔沁左翼中旗和呼伦贝尔新巴尔虎右旗（呼伦湖）等6个区域共计82次大气降水样品,结合来自全球降水同位素观测网（GNIP）的包头、张掖等6个区域大气降水样品中δD和δ¹⁸O数据,分析了内蒙古地区大气降水中δD和δ¹⁸O变化的区域差异及其主要影响因素,结果表明：内蒙古局地大气降水中δD和δ¹⁸O值存在自西向东不断偏负的趋势,其中呼伦贝尔新巴尔虎右旗大气降水中δD和δ¹⁸O值最偏负;相对地,西部阿拉善左旗大气降水中δD和δ¹⁸O值最偏正;内蒙古地区局地大气降水线斜率和截距同样表现出自西向东逐渐偏正的变化趋势,显示二次蒸发作用的影响逐渐下降,且局地蒸发水汽团对西部地区大气降水影响明显,如位于西风环流影响区的阿拉善左旗等区域局地蒸发气团占到8月部分单次大气降水来源水汽团的100%,而7月份,东亚夏季风环流对内蒙古局地大气降水的影响最为明显;整体上,虽然区域大气湿度变化引起的二次蒸发是影响内蒙古局地大气降水过程的一个关键因素,不过大气降水量对夏季大气降水稳定同位素组成的影响最明显.即西风环流影响区大气湿度变化对氘盈余指数d值的影响程度明显强于东亚夏季风区大气湿度变化的影响,而东亚夏季风环流影响区大气降水量对d值的影响程度则相对明显.
