A Study on Chemical Conditioning Separation and Interface Modulation Mechanism of High Emulsified Oily Sludge

Oily sludge is a kind of solid waste generated during the process of crude oil exploitation, storage, transportation, and refining, and is one of the main pollutants in the petroleum industry. With the increasing scale of oil exploitation, the generated oily sludge is significantly increasing. Long term exposure of oily sludge to the air leads to the accumulation of heavy oil because of the volatilization of light oil, then resulting in high emulsification stability of oily sludge. This project aims to address the technical issue of high emulsification stability of oily sludge. Efficient chemical conditioning agents are developed, by synthesizing polymer chemical agents and compounding them with other additives, to reduce the emulsification stability of oily sludge. The change rules of interfacial tension between oil and water and surface tension of oil solid particles are studied through chemical conditioning.

Eco-environmental Conservation Red Lines (ECRLs) Map Project
Eco-environmental Conservation Red Lines (ECRLs) Map Project

Eco-environmental Conservation Red Lines (ECRLs) Map Project

Chinese government implements strict measures of protecting core ecological area and established Eco-environmental Conservation Red Lines, which are conservation borsers set by governemnt indicating the areas that must be protected strictly. In this way, projects violating ECRLs should not receive financing service. ICBC's Eco-environmental Conservation Red Lines Map Project is mainly based on the Chinese government’s Eco-environmental Conservation Red Lines(ECRLs). Implementing ECRLs Map Project, ICBC embedded the requirements of ECRLs into the process of project loans, allowing its Global Credit Management System(GCMS) to automatically determine whether the project is within the scope of the eco-environmental conservation area. The projects in ECRLs will be carefully assessed for ecological environment risks by loan officers. Except for special cases such as ecological protection projects, financing support for those projects will not be provided by ICBC.

Regional permafrost monitoring system in natural test sites

Regional permafrost monitoring system in natural test sites

Temperatures in the Arctic has risen to two or three times faster than the rest of the plane in the last 50 year to two to three degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. As permafrost (permafrost is a permanently frozen land ) thaws away due to the warming climate, it poses threats to the environment, infrastructure, and human lives. Covering a quarter of the northern hemisphere landmass, mainly above the Arctic Circle, permafrost is believed to contain around 1.7 trillion tonnes of carbon in a state of organic matter. It accounts for twice the amount of carbon dioxide already in the atmosphere. Permafrost thaw could send these vast amounts of methane and carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, causing further warming and creating a feedback loop of melting and more gas emissions. In Norilsk agglomeration infrastructure, buildings and transportation networks are constructed over a permafrost base, which is vulnerable to changes to climate and rapidly warming Arctic temperatures. This can spell disaster for the structures above, damaging buildings and roads as the permafrost degrades beneath. Permafrost thaw also releases damaging contaminants into the ecosystem, impacting food chains and community health. Climate change-related increases in costs (economic losses or damage) are estimated for several climate futures by 2050 separately for 39 municipalities located in the Russian Arctic permafrost domain. The economic losses (according calculation of scientists) were evaluated as maximum and minimum values at extreme values of permafrost parameters, separately for each case. The greatest damage is expected to housing stock and buildings and structures of main economic sectors. The potential damage for Russian Arctic may reach up to US$ 132 billion (total) and ~ US$ 15 billion for residential infrastructure alone. The UN has set one of the main goals for sustainable development in the world until 2030 to take urgent measures to combat climate change and its consequences. Permafrost monitoring system in natural test sites is necessary to assess the current state of permafrost and develop scientifically based forecast models and measures to adapt to climate change in the region.

Creation of the Municipal Management Center for effective public feedback

Creation of the Municipal Management Center for effective public feedback

The basic premises for the practice implementation were the need to satisfy demanded and crucial requests of citizens, the need for rapid resolution of specific issues of the population, unplanned work, analysis of public needs to determine priorities in work and take them into account in making long-term decisions, budget planning and participation in programs and, of course, increasing the level of trust in the authorities among residents. To provide feedback to the population, a Municipal Management Center has been created, whose specialists process messages from various open sources on a daily basis. To improve the quality and operational efficiency of the dialogue experts from all departments of Vladivostok City Administration are involved in the work of the Center. Messages are received through different communication channels: • official pages of the Administration and head of the city in domestic social networks, • media field and mass media monitoring, • a specially created chatbot in Telegram (including themed chatbots on particular topics (for instance, on heating or electric scooters)), • the Unified dispatch service, • the feedback platform, • official appeals of citizens, submitted in accordance with the Federal Law 59-FL. The Municipal Management Center accumulates all data received via communication channels, conducts analysis of incoming requests and forms reports for governance on its basis. It reflect issues of concern and questions from the public, demanding attention of the head of the city for making managerial decisions. According to the results of the reports instructions are given, departures of the head of the city and specialists to the objects are conducted, decisions are made and work plans are formed both operational and long-term, requiring participation in various programs and budget allocation. Issues reflected in the reports are put under the control of the control department of the administration until the moment of implementation
