High-compressibility, low-shear-strength soils are notoriously difficult to engineer on, so traditional chemical stabilising additives like cement and lime have been used extensively to improve their engineering qualities. Soil stabilisation methods, both chemical and mechanical, are employed to improve the material's engineering properties. There is a growing need for more environmentally friendly and long-lasting materials in construction and landscaping, which could have a profound effect on the field of soil improvement around the world. Recent research shows that geopolymers and biopolymers can be used to stabilise bentonite clay, improving its engineering properties in a sustainable way. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Self-cleaning and superhydrophic Al surfaces have high techniogical potential for many applications such as environmental sustainability reqirements when such surfaces can be easily washed, fished and cleaned, thereby, reduce energy and resources consumption and pollution. Superhydrophobic surfaces have drawn increasing interest as a potential remedy for the corrosion of metallic objects because of their exceptional water-repelling properties. The current essay provides an overview of the fundamental ideas underlying superhydrophobicity. Superhydrophobic surfaces anticorrosion defense methods are being critically discussed. Future work is urgently needed to extend these superhydrophobic surfaces' corrosion resistance for a variety of practical applications. In order to do this, various crucial techniques and illustrations for creating durable, self-healing, or inhibitor-loaded superhydrophobic surfaces are provided. The report examines the various processes used by different researchers to create superhydrophobic coatings. Important methods also included the buildup of material with low surface charge and the development of a surface layer. Both one step and numerous steps have been used to complete them. As no special equipment is needed, the procedure is quite straightforward, and it can be done on an industrial scale, immersion is the simplest approach that has been recorded. Aluminum alloys can be oxidized with a combination of rough micro and nanoscale structure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Photographic lens is an invention to duplicate human eye functions and operations. Starting with seeing and focusing the object, the lens then transmits lights containing information of the scene such as colours, brightness and shapes to the digital sensor or photographic film. To produce such invention, it comprises complex steps which include material selection and processing, lens machining and finishing. Being the first of its kind, this paper will review the roles of process systems engineering (PSE) in the manufacturing of sustainable photographic lens from R&D and commercial angles. The review will detail PSE contributions for each of the step and highlights the related challenges in implementation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Silver quantum dots are synthesized from aqueous AgNO3 solution by employing biological reduction using Tamarindus indica leaf extract in different compositions. The prepared quantum dots were analyzed experimentally by employing UV-visible Spectroscopy, HRTEM, and FTIR techniques. UV-vis experimental data was employed to calculate the optical band gap of different samples. Effective engineering of optical band gap and nanostructure is achieved by the method of green synthesis. HRTEM analysis indicated the formation of quantum dots with particles of spherical shape with an average size of 10 nm. FTIR measurements were carried out to identify the possible biomolecules responsible for capping and efficient stabilization of the Ag metal nanoparticles in the present study.

Environmental concern has primarily focused on manufacturing setups. Overall, countries work towards a sustainable lifestyle and development to reduce their carbon footprint. The world is now witnessing sustainability trends in the health Sector as well. The Healthcare sector worldwide is characterized by the consumption of a significant number of resources. It should be the health care organisation (HCO)'s primary responsibility to keep a check on carbon footprint and assess environmental sustainability. Worldwide there exists a standard rating system that provides green certifications. A major Indian population is below the poverty line, illiteracy contributes to unawareness in people as consequence healthcare organizations suffer in India. The present study aims to examine and understand the basics of green hospitals, various dimensions responsible to achieve green status, importance and correlation of these dimensions. It aims to examine the fundamentals of Green HCO, the various dimensions, barriers and a way forward to benign HC establishments in India. This work emphasizes the environmental, economic, health and community benefits of sustainability for the health care sector. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a case study of a new environmental engineering course geared towards lifelong learning and addressing the specificities of adult learners. Knowles, Mezirow and others have made quite clear the characteristics of such learners, but the methodology and implementation is up to the instructor. One can also draw from the works of Herrington and others on authentic learning when designing new content geared towards lifelong learners. In this case study, I describe how I have integrated those various concepts, also taking into account the engineering accreditation board's criteria, to set up a new module geared towards lifelong learners in an environmental sustainability engineering Graduate Certificate at the National University of Singapore. Though the interpretation of the results is limited by the small class size, the student feedback gathered informally hinted that the strategy implemented in this course met the demands of these adult learners.
