A global multiregional life cycle sustainability assessment of national energy production scenarios until 2050 by Kucukvar M.

“…The results showed that in comparison of BAU with RED scenario, GHG emissions associated would be 84% less in RED, wages will be 23% less and taxes would decrease by 22.4% under RED plan by 2050. In addition, energy sources responsible for the highest GHG emissions per kilowatt-hour of electricity produced are found as biomass, coal, waste and oil. …”

Sorption of benzene and naphthalene on (semi)-arid coastal soil as a function of salinity and temperature by NgueleuS.K.

“…The sorption of naphthalene was not affected by the change in salinity but increased by 18% when the temperature decreased from 35 to 5 �C. A sorption kinetic model was also applied to define the sorption behavior of benzene and naphthalene for the coastal soil collected in Qatar and the best fits were achieved with the Langmuir sorption isotherm.…”
