TL;DR: Molecular evidence is obtained that strengthens earlier experimental and ultrastructural studies in Brazil incriminating B. microplus as a natural vector of B. equi and B. caballi, and likewise suggestive of the possibility of both transovarial and transstadial parasite transmission in this tick vector.

TL;DR: The necessity of the continuation of water treatment system improvement in tropical Asia is highlighted with low I/E ratios of the sediments with high SigmaLABs concentrations suggest a heavy load of untreated sewage.

TL;DR: In this article, a fuzzy multiple-objective modeling approach is presented for determining optimal bioenergy system configuration given targets for the three footprint metrics, namely land use, water and carbon footprints arising from a given level of system output.
Abstract: Current interest in the large-scale use of biofuels has grown in response to both energy security and climate change concerns; however, it is also increasingly apparent that these benefits can come only at the expense of increased demand for agricultural resources such as land and water Furthermore, recent studies also suggest that changes in land use patterns for energy crop cultivation can incur significant carbon debts that can only be recovered after many years of operation The environmental feasibility of the use of energy crops to make biofuels can thus be viewed in terms of three main performance indicators—the land use, water and carbon footprints arising from a given level of system output An optimal solution thus needs to account for tradeoffs that may be inherent in the conflicting objectives This work presents a fuzzy multiple-objective modeling approach for determining optimal bioenergy system configuration given targets for the three footprint metrics The fuzzy optimization approach is integrated with an input–output-based life cycle model for establishing system material and energy balances The approach is demonstrated here through the analysis of different scenarios for the integrated production of biodiesel, ethanol and electricity under anticipated energy demand conditions in the Philippines

TL;DR: In this paper, a general methodology for the life cycle analysis of manufacturing processes taking into account the flexibility and decision-making potential of knowledge base systems is described, where emphasis is placed on on-site waste minimisation and associated sustainability characteristics in relation to environmental impact assessment and process improvement.
