We create a comprehensive policy evaluation system that is based on the concept of integrated basin management. From the point of view of economic development and environmental protection, we set up an equilibrium environmental tax, optimize its allocation and simulate its effects on reducing...

Stockbreeding industries are increasing rapidly in rural areas around big cities in China, especially the rural areas around Beijing. This increase carries high risks to the environment due to emissions of large amounts of pollutants in terms of COD (chemical oxygen demand), T-N (total nitrogen)...

Increasing scarcity of freshwater resources and growing environmental awareness give rise to the use of reclaimed wastewater as an additional source of water supply. However, the amount of wastewater that can be reclaimed for reuse is subject to many factors, ranging from technical possibility...

In this study, we analyze an optimal policy and evaluate new devices and technologies to improve the water quality of Lake Kasumigaura, considering both - the total ecological system in and around the lake and the socio-economic situational changes over a certain period of time. The optimal...
