Mangrove Ecosystem Restoration
No full textMangroves serve as one of the nature-based solutions for coastal communities. We are now almost at the tipping point where we can restore mangroves ecologically to mitigate climate change and enhance other important ecosystem services under the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. Mangrove Ecosystem Restoration focuses on mangrove ecosystem restoration, the ecosystem services mangroves provide, and how to manage and conserve mangroves. The three sections include eight chapters that cover such topics as evaluating mangrove degradation, forest recovery through seedling recruitment, natural regeneration of mangroves, advanced molecular biology for restoring mangroves, and more

Pollution Control of HCl Synthesis Unit in Chloro-Alkali Industry
No full textAbstractControl of chlorine gas release is a major concern for most chlor-alkali industries. Normally manual and proportional-derivative-integral control strategies are provided for control. In HCl synthesis plant there are chances of chlorine leakage to atmosphere under certain fault conditions. The limit of chlorine release at stack is 6ppm and its exposure limit at ground is 2ppm. If the chlorine release exceeds the limits it may cause pollution problems and in turn will affect human life and environment. This project defines a control strategy to limit the chlorine gas release from the stack by a control mechanism that measures the chlorine concentration at the stack and control the inlet flow rate of chlorine gas to the oven. For this control mechanism PID, Fuzzy logic and Fuzzy-PID strategies are used and of the three, Fuzzy-PID is the best controller which would efficiently limit the release of chlorine gas to atmospher

Social media and empowerment in hospitality and tourism decision-making:A study among UK Muslim women
No full textResearch that explores Muslim women’s hospitality and tourism decision-making is limited. This paper attempts to bring a new perspective to the literature on social media and consumption decisions in the hospitality and tourism sector by focusing on Muslim women as a consumer segment. Based on a survey of 791 Muslim women in the UK, it finds that autonomous self-expression, self-disclosure, and reciprocity to self-disclosure on Facebook were positively related to bonding and bridging social capital, which in turn related positively to their empowerment in hospitality and tourism decision-making. Employment status moderated some of these relations. The paper breaks new ground by bringing together two disparate research strands in the tourism literature: one that focuses on women but ignores religion, and the other that studies Islamic tourism but overlooks the role of women. The findings offer insights into hospitality and tourism marketing strategies aimed at Muslim women
