Actions: Research
& Development (R&D)
In
the field of advancing
technology, improvisation of
current method in the treatment
and control of pollutants in
industrial areas, prevention of
greater degree of pollution and
proper management of waste in
hand with economical cost. Also
in mind the practice of
sustainable development with the
implementation of environmental
technology to give a greater
benefit to every
individuals. By
classifications, research and
development is divided into:
Alternative
Technologies
- offering
various
possibilities to
the current
method in
treatment and
control of
pollution
- current
alternatives in
applications:
- soil
vapor
extraction
- bioventing
- biopiles
- land
farming
- low
temperature
thermal
desorption
- air
sparging
- biosparging
- natural
attenuation
- in
situ ground
water
bioremediation
- dual-phase
extraction
- desalination
of sea water
- many
scientists think that the
next step of generating
nuclear energy is by fission
of atoms
Clean
Technologies
-
renewable
sources which
can be used many
times, involves
minimal cost and
also restricted
use of hazardous
materials in
use, especially
in the use of
energy
-
current
clean
technologies
available:
- hydropower
- solar
energy
- wind
power
- geothermal
energy
- biomass
energy
- tillage
- vegetation
- compost
Creative/Innovative
Technologies
-
new
class of
invention which
could lead to
greater
efficiency in
prevention of
pollutions, or
current
improvement to a
more refine
technology
-
current
creative/innovative
technologies
are:
- sorbents
- air
cleaning
- in
situ
oxidation
- in
situ well
aeration
- solvent
extraction
- in
situ
flushing
- solidification
- soil
washing
- biological
agents
- dispersing
agents
- energy
chips
- cooling
towers
By
applications, the above
mentioned technologies have been
applied to control and overcome
